Core Tip |
This prospective case series provides evidence for the efficacy of a sequential approach to the treatment of patients with recurrent acute pancreatitis in whom painful episodes persisted after initial aetiological work up and appropriate interventions if any, with drugs and endoscopic therapy. Along with improvements in the intensity and average number of days with pain, the protocol also improved the quality of life, C-peptide levels and faecal elastase in these patients. The significance of our results needs to be explored in future studies on the effect of these interventions in preventing the progression of recurrent acute pancreatitis to chronic pancreatitis. |
