The most significant disorders of the endocrine pancreas are diabetes mellitus and neoplasms. Makes up the bulk of this organ is a major source of enzymes that are essential for digestion. Acinar cells, the ductules and ducts that convey their secretions to the duodenum. Pancreatitis Definition It encompasses a group of disorders characterized by inflammation of the pancreas. Clinical manifestation Can range in severity from: Mild self-limited disease → to a life-threatening Idiopathic acute inflammatory process. Types 1- Acute Pancreatitis The gland can return to normal if the underlying cause of pancreatitis is removed ,reversible . 2- Chronic Pancreatitis Irreversible loss of exocrine pancreatic parenchyma. Acute Pancreatitis Definition Reversible pancreatic parenchymal injury associated with inflammation Epidemiology Relatively common, with an annual incidence rate in Western countries of 10 to 20 cases per 100,000 people. Biliary tract diseases and alcoholism account for approximately 80% of cases in Western countries. Gallstones are present in 35% to 60% of cases of acute pancreatitis, and about 5% of patients with gallstones develop pancreatitis. The male-to-female ratio is : 1 : 3 in the group with biliary tract diseases (females) 6 : 1 in those with alcoholism (men) . Etiologic Factors All in females slides except blue in males - Alcoholism Hyperlipoproteinemia Hypercalcemia Medications (85 drugs e.g, azathioprine, sulfonamides ) - Germline Mutations in the cationic trypsinogen (PRSSI) , and trypsin inhibitor (SPINKI) genes (recurrent severe acute pancreatitis often beginning in childhood) Mechanical - Gallstones & Obstruction of the pancreatic duct Trauma. Iatrogenic injury. Perioperative injury. Endoscopic procedures with dye injection. Vascular - Shock Atheroembolism Vasculitis:Polyarteritis nodosa Thrombosis Infections - Mumps Coxsackievirus Parasitic : Ascaris Metabolic Genetic Three pathways can incite the initial enzyme activation that may lead to acute pancreatitis: Pathogenesis Acute Pancreatitis Acute pancreatitis appears to be caused by autodigestion of the pancreas by inappropriately activated pancreatic enzymes.hyperactivation of trypsin, also hyperactivation of many other digestive enzymes that require trypsin cleavage for their activation and may leading to tissue injury and inflammation. The pancreas is normally protected from autodigestion by synthesis of pancreatic enzymes in the acinar cells in the proenzymes form. Female Slides - Pancreatic Duct Obstruction Primary Acinar Cell Injury Defective Intracellular Transport of Proenzymes Within Acinar Cells - Blocks ductal low ➔ ↑ intraductal pressure & accumulation of enzyme-rich interstitial fluid ➔lipase (secreted in an active form)➔ local fat necrosis. Injured tissues + periacinar myofibroblasts + leukocytes release pro-inflammatory cytokines ➔ promote local inflammation and interstitial edema. Edema ➔ compromises local blood low ➔ vascular insufficiency & ischemic injury to acinar cells. - This pathogenic pathway comes into play in acute pancreatitis caused by ischemia, viral infections, drugs & direct trauma to the pancreas. - Proenzyme activation ➔ lysosomal rupture ➔ local release of activated enzymes. In normal acinar cells : After synthesis in the ER, digestive proenzymes goes to zymogen granules & hydrolytic enzymes goes to lysosomes and are transported in discrete pathways. In animal models: pancreatic proenzymes & lysosomal hydrolases become packaged together ➔ proenzyme activation ➔lysosomal rupture ➔ local release of activated enzymes. The role of this mechanism in human acute pancreatitis is not clear. Alcohol consumption may causes pancreatitis by several mechanisms : 01 Alcohol transiently increases pancreatic exocrine secretion & contraction of the sphincter of Oddi. 02 Alcohol has direct toxic effects on acinar cells. Female Slides 03 Chronic alcohol ingestion ➔ secretion of protein-rich pancreatic fluid ➔ deposition of inspissated protein plugs➔ obstruction of small pancreatic ducts. Acute Pancreatitis Dr said enzymes are important Three pathways can incite the initial enzyme activation that may lead to acute pancreatitis: 1. 2. 3. Pancreatic duct obstruction : Impaction of a gallstone or biliary sludge, or extrinsic compression of the ductal system by a mass blocks ductal flow, increases intraductal pressure, and allows accumulation of an enzyme- rich interstitial fluid. Since lipase is secreted in an active form, local fat necrosis may result. Injured tissues, periacinar myofibroblasts, and leukocytes then release proinflammatory cytokines that promote local inflammation and interstitial edema through a leaky microvasculature. Edema further compromises local blood flow, causing vascular insufficiency and ischemic injury to acinar cells. Primary acinar cell injury : This pathogenic mechanism comes into play in acute pancreatitis caused by ischemia, viral infections (e.g., mumps), drugs, and direct trauma to the pancreas. Defective intracellular transport of proenzymes within acinar cells : In normal acinar cells, digestive enzymes intended for zymogen granules (and eventually extracellular release) and hydrolytic enzymes destined for lysosomes are transported in discrete pathways after synthesis in the endoplasmic reticulum. Acute Pancreatitis Histologically The morphology of acute pancreatitis ranges from inflammation and edema to severe extensive necrosis and hemorrhage 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. The basic alterations Microvascular leakage causing edema Fat necrosis by lipolytic enzymes (lipases) Acute inflammation (neutrophils) Proteolytic destruction of pancreatic parenchyma by proteases Destruction of blood vessels and subsequent interstitial hemorrhage due to activation of elastases Pancreatic parenchymal necrosis ● ● Acute necrotizing pancreatitis (sever form) ● ● Hemorrhagic Pancreatitis Fat necrosis Necrosis of pancreatic acinar & ductal tissues as well as the islets of langerhans Vascular damage ➔ hemorrhage into the parenchyma of the pancreas Fat necrosis can occur in extra-pancreatic fat, including the omentum & pancreatitis bowel mesentery, and even outside the abdominal cavity (e.g, in (sever form)subcutaneous fat) Peritoneum usually contains a serous, slightly turbid, brown-tinged fluid with globules of fat (derived from enzymatically digested adipose tissue). Extensive parenchymal necrosis and diffuse hemorrhage leading to shock. ( most severe) Grossly ● ● ● Red-black hemorrhage interspersed with foci of yellow-white, chalky fat necrosis Fat necrosis results from enzymatic destruction of fat cells. The released fatty acids combine with calcium to form insoluble salts that precipitate in situ (appear as foci of yellow-white, chalky material) Foci of fat necrosis may also be found in extra-pancreatic collections of fat, including the omentum and bowel mesentery, and even outside the abdominal cavity Fat necrosis in the peripancreatic fat Hemorrhage in the head of the pancreas Acute Pancreatitis Clinical Features 01 Abdominal pain : varies in severity from mild & uncomfortable to sever & incapacitating 04 80% of cases are mild & self limiting; remaining 20% develop severe disease ➔ shock, hemorrhage & chronic pancreatitis 07 ↑Microvascular permeability → hypovolemia → peripheral vascular collapse (shock) → acute tubular necrosis in kidney → acute renal failure eventually multi organ failure 02 Characteristically, the pain is constant, intense & often is referred to upper back 05 It must be differentiated from : Ruptured acute appendicitis, perforated peptic ulcer, acute cholecystitis with rupture & occlusion of mesenteric Clinical vessels with infarction of bowel 08 disseminated intravascular coagulation may be related to early intravascular consumption of coagulation factors secondary to circulating pancreatic enzymes, particularly trypsin Pleural effusion due to transdiaphragmatic lymphatic blockage 03 Full-blown acute pancreatitis constitutes a medical emergency “acute abdomen”: sudden onset of abdominal pain, abdominal guarding/rigidity & absence of bowel sounds 06 Systemic release of digestive enzymes + activation of inflammatory response ➔ leukocytes, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), acute respiratory distress syndrome (due to alveolar capillary injury) & diffuse fat necrosis 09 Severe pancreatic damage leads to systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and affects multiple organs including lungs, the severe form of which is acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) Clinical Note The deep location of the pancreas sometimes gives rise to problems of diagnosis for the following reasons: ● Because the pancreas lies behind the stomach and transverse colon, disease of the gland can be confused with that of the stomach or transverse colon. ● Inflammation of the pancreas can spread to the peritoneum forming the posterior wall of the lesser sac. This in turn can lead to adhesions and the closing off of the lesser sac to form a pseudocyst. Acute Pancreatitis Diagnosis 1 2 3 Laboratory findings include markedly elevated serum amylase during the first 24 hours, followed (within 72–96hours) by rising serum lipase levels. Hypocalcemia (due to precipitation of calcium in areas of fat necrosis) If persistent, it is a poor prognostic sign. CT scan or MRI will show enlarged & inflamed pancreas. Management Prognosis Complication Supportive therapy: such as maintaining BP & alleviating pain, “Resting” the pancreas by total restriction of food & fluids, and Treat the primary cause. ● Most patients will eventually recover ● 5% can die from shock during the first week of illness ● Some may develop acute respiratory distress syndrome +/- and acute renal failure are fatal complications. ● Survivors may develop: - Sterile or infected pancreatic “abscesses” - Pancreatic pseudocysts Clinical Note Because pancreas is responsible for fat digestion , many fat soluble vitamins will be decreased thus patient could present with : Pancreatic pseudocysts A common sequela of acute pancreatitis (alcoholic pancreatitis) Pseudocysts are localized collections of liquefied areas of necrotic tissue-hemorrhagic material rich in pancreatic enzymes, the areas become walled off by fibrous tissue to form a cystic space, lacking an epithelial lining (hence the prefix "pseudo"). They account for majority of cysts in the pancreas, approximately accounting for 75% of all pancreatic cysts. Traumatic injury to the abdomen can also give rise to pseudocysts. Morphology Pseudocyst of Pancreas ● While many pseudocysts spontaneously resolve, they may become secondarily infected, and larger pseudocysts may compress or even perforate into adjacent structures. ● They can produce abdominal pain and predispose to intraperitoneal hemorrhage or peritonitis. Grossly Histologically A poorly defined cyst with a necrotic brownish wall, usually solitary and can range in size from 2 to 30 cm in diameter. lacks an epithelial lining and instead is lined by fibrin and granulation tissue, with typical changes of chronic inflammation Deep Focus Question Deep Focus Question Which of the following is NOT a systemic complication of acute pancreatitis?

Hypercalcemia D. Smoking E. Alcohol Answer: D Chronic Pancreatitis Definition ● characterized by long-standing inflammation & fibrosis then destruction of the exocrine Pancreas parenchyma, followed by loss of the endocrine parenchyma in the late stages ● The chief distinction from acute pancreatitis is the irreversible impairment in pancreatic function that is characteristic of chronic pancreatitis. Tropical pancreatitis: which is a poorly characterized disease seen in Africa & Asia, it has also been attributed to malnutrition. Etiology There is significant overlap in the causes of acute and chronic pancreatitis Idiopathic chronic pancreatitis (in 40% of cases) Hereditary pancreatitis (Germline mutations in genes such as CFTR) (PRSS1 mutations) Epidemiology Repeated acute pancreatitis (Long-standing obstruction of the pancreatic duct by pseudocysts, trauma , pancreas divisum, calculi or neoplasms) Long term Chronic alcohol abuse ( the most common cause) Hypercalcemia & hyperlipidemia Biliary tract disease, are usually middle-aged males (2nd most common cause) Autoimmune injury to the gland (IgG4-related disease) Prevalence ranges between 0.04 - 5% of the U.S. population pancreatitis and: Hypercalcemia ● Conversion of trypsinogen to trypsin. ● The accumulation of calcium can promote the formation of ductal obstruction, pancreatic calculi. Male Slides Hyperlipidemia ● Might impair circulatory flow in capillary beds lead to ischemia. ● Triglycerides and free fatty acids cause edema, hemorrhage and elevated amylase levels. Chronic Pancreatitis Pathogenesis Chronic pancreatitis VS Acute pancreatitis Arises from precursor lesions (PanINs) as a result of progressive accumulation of inherited and acquired genetic mutations in pancreatic epithelium. Morphology Female Slides 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Parenchymal fibrosis. Reduced number & size of acini (acinar loss). Variable dilation of the pancreatic ducts. Relative sparing of the islets of Langerhans (+/- hyperplasia). Chronic inflammatory infiltrate around remaining lobules and ducts. Ductal epithelium may be atrophied, hyperplastic or exhibit squamous metaplasia. Ductal concretions may be seen. Parenchy mal fibrosis Acinar atrophy Residual islets Dilated duct with concretion Residual ducts Chronic Pancreatitis Clinical Features Female Slides Present in several different ways: ● Repeated bouts of jaundice. ● Vague indigestion. ● Persistent or recurrent abdominal and back pain. ● Complication: pancreatic insufficiency (malabsorption led to wt. loss & hypoalbunemic edema) & DM develop. Female Slides Attacks can be precipitated by: ● Alcohol abuse. ● Overeating (increases demand on pancreatic secretions). ● Drugs as opiates (increases the muscle tone of the sphincter of Oddi). Male Slides Silent or repeated attacks of abdominal pain, or persistent abdominal and back pain. Attacks may be precipitated by alcohol abuse, overeating (which increases demand on the pancreas), or the use of opiates and other drugs. Male Slides During an attack of abdominal pain, there may be mild fever and mild-to-moderate elevations of serum amylase. Calcifications can be seen within the pancreas by CT scan and ultrasonography. • Complications: Severe pancreatic exocrine insufficiency, chronic malabsorption, diabetes mellitus (due to destruction of islets of Langerhans),and pancreatic pseudocysts. Female Slides Diagnosis requires a high degree of clinical suspicion. • During attack of abdominal pain, there may be mild fever & moderate elevation of serum amylase. • CT or ultrasonography: visualization of calcifications within the pancreas. Prognosis Female Slides 10% develop pancreatic pseudocysts. ● Long-term prognosis is poor: 50% mortality rate over 20 to 25 years. ● Persons with hereditary pancreatitis have a 40% lifetime risk of developing pancreatic can Chronic pancreatitis Diagnosis Amylase in chronic pancreatitis: ● Less reliable than in acute disease. ● Values are variable: either normal, borderline, or slightly increased. Lipase in chronic pancreatitis: ✔ Not clinically useful. Serum immunoreactive trypsin in chronic pancreatitis: Decreased concentration. Summary Acute pancreatitis ● ● ● ● ● Gallstone alcohol.
