title: [Symptomatic diabetes mellitus in patients with chronic recurrent pancreatitis].
abstract: Out of 279 patients with chronic recurrent cholepancreatitis 34 (12.2%) developed secondary diabetes mellitus. The secondary genesis of the diabetes was suggested in view of its origin in the presence of chronic pancreatitis and absence of hereditary predisposition, concomitant diseases promoting diabetes onset. The frequency of pancreatitis exacerbations and the degree of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency correlate with the occurrence of symptomatic diabetes. Diminished blood levels of insulin and C-peptide, inhibited response to pancreozymin registered in the patients may be indicative of symptomatic diabetes onset. Ketoacidosis was recorded in 9 patients, diabetic retinopathy in no patients. Ten patients out of 34 patients with chronic pancreatitis with secondary diabetes, 9 of which had episodes of ketoacidosis, received insulin. The sequence chronic cholecystitis-pancreatitis-diabetes was discussed in detail.
