Abstract

EDITORIAL SYNOPSIS Two hundred and five confirmed cases of pancreatitis have been classified. Primary calcifying pancreatitis is associated with alcoholism. Pancreatic changes are patchy and related to plugging of minute ducts. Cysts are frequent. Obstruction to the main pancreatic duct may also result in chronic pancreatitis. Acute pancreatitis and acute recurrent pancreatitis are often associated with gall stones. Acute pancreatitis rarely progresses towards the chronic form.
