  • Title: [Pulmonary damage in acute tryptic pancreatitis].
    Author: Stömmer P.
    Journal: Dtsch Med Wochenschr; 1984 Mar 23; 109(12):454-60. PubMed ID: 6705696.
    Abstract:
    Pulmonary damage in acute tryptic pancreatitis is frequently a main contributory factor in death. Morphology shows a toxic pneumonosis with a course in stages. Various pathogenetic mechanisms may contribute towards its occurrence. Similar to the acute tryptic pancreatitis in the pancreas proper the pancreatitis-induced adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is probably not caused by a single enzyme or its reaction products but by a summation effect, i.e. the "concert of pancreatic enzymes".
