title: [Fulminant hepatitis B virus associated with acute pancreatitis. Report of two cases (author's transl)].
abstract: Viral hepatitis affections are sometimes associated with endocrine or exocrine pancreatic disorders. An acute necrotizing hemorrhagic pancreatitis seems to be the prerogative of the fulminating forms. The demonstration of HBS fluorescence in the pancreatic acini cells in one patient suggests the possible etiopathogenic role of HB virus in some cases, apart from the other factors involved.
