Popis: Acute pancreatitis was induced in anesthetized pigs by injection of Na-taurocholate into the pancreatic duct. The pigs were allocated to 4 groups. One group remained untreated while the other groups received either C1-inhibitor, aprotinin or methyl-prednisolone intravenously as pretreatment. Extensive necroses of the pancreatic parenchyma, peripancreatic oedema and accumulation of large amounts of fluid in the abdominal cavity developed within a few hours in all experimental groups. Pretreatment significantly improved hemodynamics and increased the survival rate at 6 hours. It is concluded that the most essential effect of the pretreatments were reduction of proteolytic activities which are secondary to the pancreatic lesions.
