[Clinical value of determination of the blood elastase activity as a marker of postoperative pancreatitis].
For diagnosis of postoperative pancreatitis 50 patients were examined after performance of organ-preserving operation for gastroduodenal ulcer disease. In 15 patients various postvagotomy symptoms occurred. In 12 of them the elastase activity in blood was increased already in 12 h after operation, lowering gradually under the influence of specific therapy. On 2-3 days in these patients the amylase activity increase in blood and urine was revealed, testifying the postoperative pancreatitis presence. Under the influence of the treatment conducted the postvagotomy syndromes severity had reduced in accordance with the elastase activity normalization in blood.
