Popis: The concentrations of calcitonin and parathormone were studied in 63 patients with chronic pancreatitis during exacerbation. The results obtained were analyzed with relation to the state of pancreatic exocrine and endocrine function, gravity of disease and the blood level of calcium. The concentration of calcitonin was considerably raised, the most noticeable elevation was observed in patients with a severe course. The level of calcitonin also rose frequently in patients with high activity of blood pancreatic enzymes (amylase and radioimmune trypsin) and hyperglucagonemia. The level of parathormone did not undergo marked changes.
