[Antiaggregation activity of the vascular wall and pancreatic ultrasound pattern in the development of chronic alcohol-induced pancreatitis].
There are ultrasonographic signs of pancreatic edematous changes in early chronic alcohol-induced pancreatitis and signs of fibrous changes in the advanced (over 10-year) disease. Progressive chronic alcohol-induced pancreatitis is followed by decreased vascular wall antiaggregatory activity more commonly detected in pancreatic tissue fibrous changes, which should be borne in mind in choosing the optimum treatment policy for the patient.
