Abstract
Acute pancreatitis is defined as an acute inflammatory process of the pancreas, with variable involvement of other regional tissues or remote organ systems.4 It may occur as an isolated attack or recur in distinct episodes with reversion to normal histology between attacks. By definition, acute pancreatitis is reversible. It is distinguished from chronic pancreatitis by the absence of continuing inflammation, irreversible structural changes and permanent impairment of exocrine and endocrine function.
