Description
Substantial progress has recently been made in the diagnosis and assessment of pancreatic disease as well as surgical techniques and procedures for monitoring enzyme treatment. However, due to a lack of adequate clinical data, a number of topics are still under discussion, especially the treatment of pancreatic pain. Current insights show that various non-pancreatic diseases like celiac disease and inflammatory bowel disease also require enzyme therapy. This timely publication contains the contribution of international experts who present the results of their investigations concerning these current topics.
