title: [The characteristics of the diagnosis and clinical picture of pseudotumorous chronic pancreatitis].
abstract: As many as 12 patients with pseudotumorous chronic pancreatitis have been examined. While studying the functional state of the pancreas a conclusion was reached about a decrease in the organ's exocrine activity, with the hormone output remaining unaffected. Particular features of the immunity status in the patients are outlined. It is recommended that dynamic ultrasonic investigation and computerized tomography to the abdominal cavity and retroperitoneal space, transcutaneous puncture biopsy of the pancreas, should be used for the differential diagnosis with carcinoma of the organ to be made possible.
