ABSTRACT
The aim of this work is to evaluate acute pancreatitis (AP) including specially role of lipid's and lipoprotein's metabolism disorders. On the ground of actually literature we take up studies to answer for the question: lipid's and lipoprotein's metabolism disorders are the cause or the effect of AP, or whether they are a phenomenon taking place independently on the disease? Our analysis indicate an immediate relation between lipid's metabolism and acute pancreatitis, but don't permit to table univocals motions. To this it's necessary removal examinations on the large and various group of patients with acute pancreatitis.

On the course of acute pancreatitis which occurred in 30 patients treated in our clinic changes in cholesterol, triglycerides and phospholipids levels were monitored during 7 days of hospitalization taking into account the severity and aetiology of disease. The decrease of cholesterol and phospholipids levels were observed in 3-rd and 7-th day of hospitalization. TGs concentrations however showed variability regarding aetiology and severity of acute pancreatitis lack of mentioned above lipid levels changes before the disease onset as well as their rapid normalization with healing suggest, that they are rather a consequence not a cause of acute pancreatitis.

On the course of acute pancreatitis which occurred in 30 patients treated in our clinic changes in levels of alpha-amylase, C-reactive protein and lipoprotein (a) were monitoring during 7 days of hospitalisation talking into account the severity and aetiology of disease. The highest level of the alpha-amylase were observed in 1-st day, C-reactive protein in 3-rd day and lipoprotein (a) in 7-th day of observation. These parameters are very useful to monitoring course and heaviness of acute pancreatitis.
