The diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic disease-related dyspepsia / 临床肝胆病杂志

ABSTRACT

Various pancreatic diseases can cause dyspepsia due to pancreatic exocrine insufficiency （PEI） caused by pancreatic parenchymal injury and/or pancreatic duct obstruction， which further leads to impaired digestive function and a series of severe clinical outcomes such as malnutrition， weight loss， and shortened survival time. Therefore， pancreatic disease-related dyspepsia should be taken seriously in clinical practice to improve its diagnosis and treatment rates， so as to improve the quality of life of patients with pancreatic diseases and prolong overall survival time.
