ABSTRACT
Acute pancreatitis( AP)is a common gastrointestinal emergency,which comprises mild acute pancreatitis ( MAP),moderately severe acute pancreatitis( MSAP)and severe acute pancreatitis( SAP). Most patients with MAP and MSAP present as a mild,self-limiting disease with low morbidity and mortality,however,patients who suffer from SAP will experience serious local and/or systemic complications associated with high mortality. Therefore,early assessment of disease severity is important for clinical management. Procalcitonin( PCT),a pro-peptide of calcitonin,is an inflammatory mediator that can be used to differentiate bacterial and non-bacterial infection. Recently,the effect of PCT on AP has attracted more and more attentions. This article reviewed the advances in studies on PCT and AP.
