The association between gallstone and biliary pancreatitis
Journal Title: Journal of Clinical Hepatology - Year 2024, Vol 40, Issue 10
Abstract
Acute pancreatitis is one of the most common acute abdominal diseases in clinical practice， and the common etiologies of acute pancreatitis include biliary diseases， alcohol， pancreatic duct diseases， metabolic disorders （hypertriglyceridemia and hypercalcemia）， excessive eating， and diseases of the descending duodenum （periampullary duodenal diverticula）. According to the etiology， acute pancreatitis is classified into biliary pancreatitis and hyperlipidemic pancreatitis， and although there are various pathogenic factors for biliary pancreatitis， biliary diseases including bile duct stones remain the most important etiology of biliary pancreatitis. Obstructed biliopancreatic duct drainage and abnormal pressure due to various causes， bile reflux into the pancreatic duct， obstruction of pancreatic juice drainage， and abnormal activation of pancreatic enzymes are the central links in the development of biliary pancreatitis. The location， size， texture， number and shape of bile duct stones are associated with the incidence rate and severity of biliary pancreatitis to a certain degree.
