Association of Zollinger-Ellison syndrome with pancreatitis: report of five cases.
Digestive Diseases and Sciences 2000 August
In a retrospective analysis, five cases of Zollinger-Ellison syndrome were found in a typical urban inner-city teaching hospital. Chronic alcohol abuse and heavy smoking characterized these patients, and four of them also had pancreatitis, suggesting an association of gastrin-producing tumors and pancreatic inflammation. Ductal obstruction by neuroendocrine tumors has been reported to cause pancreatitis in a few cases. In this analysis, however, a nonobstructive gastrinoma was the surgical diagnosis in three patients, and it was suggested by imaging studies in the two other cases. The potential other pathomechanisms for a dual cause-effect relationship of gastrinoma and pancreatitis are discussed.
