incidence in western industrialized countries. This volume
deals with all aspects of CHRONIC PANCREATITIS including
epidemiology, etiology, morphology and pathophysiology, dia-
gnostic imaging as well as conservative and operative treat-
ment. Very recent data based on experimental and clinical
research projects are presented. The contributions have all
been written by a team of internationally well recognized
authorities in the various fields involved. Topics of parti-
cular interest include feed-back regulation, new aspects of
conservative and interventional treatment as well as modern
surgical approaches including organ-preserving procedures.
An up-to-date and comprehensive book on all aspects of chronic pancreatitis, including new research and controversial issues.
