title: [A histotopographic study of the pancreas in lipomatosis].
abstract: Histotopographic investigations of the pancreas in lipomatosis were carried out and results obtained were collated with clinical data. It was established that diminution of the exocrine parenchyma in this case may be quite considerable-in some cases only 9.9-12% of its amount remained. Despite the considerable diminishing of the exocrine parenchyma in lipomatosis, no clinical manifestations of the disorder of the exocrine function may be observed. Experimental data showed that loss of the exocrine parenchyma of the pancreas may be compensated in other parts of the gastro-intestinal tract, in the stomach in particular.
