Ultrasonic histogramme was studied in 35 patients with chronic pancreatitis and 20 donors, taken in the area of the head and body of the pancreas, as were levels of immunoreactive trypsin--fasting and after standard food load,--and C-peptide in blood serum on an empty stomach. To increase informative value and specificity of ultrasonic and radioimmunologic investigations an index has been suggested, based on the findings from histogramme and radioimmunity analysis.

As many as 12 patients with pseudotumorous chronic pancreatitis have been examined. While studying the functional state of the pancreas a conclusion was reached about a decrease in the organ's exocrine activity, with the hormone output remaining unaffected. Particular features of the immunity status in the patients are outlined. It is recommended that dynamic ultrasonic investigation and computerized tomography to the abdominal cavity and retroperitoneal space, transcutaneous puncture biopsy of the pancreas, should be used for the differential diagnosis with carcinoma of the organ to be made possible.

The authors theoretically explain the elevation of blood plasma levels of soluble fibrin monomer complexes occurring in elevated trypsin concentrations in the blood. Examinations of 50 patients with chronic relapsing pancreatitis and of 20 donors demonstrated a marked correlation between the levels of immunoreactive trypsin and soluble fibrin-monomer complexes in the blood. The authors recommend measurements of blood soluble fibrin-monomer complexes for the diagnosis of exacerbations of chronic relapsing pancreatitis.
