| pubmed-article:9775127 | pubmed:abstractText | We report the case of a 68-year-old man who presented a pancreatic tumor with a pancreato-vascular fistula and a Weber-Christian syndrome. Pancreatic enzymes levels at the admission were high: amylasemia 2,470 IU/L (N < 110) and lipasemia 11,700 IU/L (N < 220). The treatment consisted in total parenteral nutrition and somatostatin (100 micrograms x 3/day). Because we noted neither clinical nor biological improvement after 10 days of treatment, we performed an endoscopic retrograde pancreatography. During this examination, we put a 7 French diameter prosthesis through the Wirsung stenosis. | lld:pubmed |
