Six children with chronic diarrhea and neutropenia, initially referred for evaluation of Shwachman-Diamond syndrome, were found to have no evidence of pancreatic insufficiency. All presented in the spring with a prodromal respiratory illness. Hematologic evaluation was normal except for iron
Diarrhea induced by exocrine pancreatic insufficiency in relation to chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, or partial pancreatic excision is generally moderate without modification of the nutritional status of the patient. However, when the malabsorption of lipids is severe diarrhoea with
Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency and diarrhea have been hallmarks in the diagnosis of Shwachman-Diamond syndrome (SDS). We report 2 cases of genetically confirmed SDS in patients who presented with an unusual phenotype. Patient #1 presented with pancytopenia without other system involvement, while
The onset of diarrhea complicates the care of critically ill patients, who often have complex cardiopulmonary, renal or metabolic problems. Diarrhea further upsets fluid and electrolyte balance and creates difficulties in nutritional support. Common causes of acute diarrhea in critically ill
Diagnostic workup was performed in 118 patients with a chronic malassimilation syndrome. 45 patients had exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, 23 patients jejunal mucosal atrophy (mainly celiac disease), 36 patients increased enteral deconjugation of bile acids and as shown by the 14C-glycocholate
OBJECTIVE
A previous UK study showed that 6.1% of patients with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) had evidence of severe pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (PEI), but these findings need replication. We aimed to identify the prevalence of PEI based on fecal elastase stool testing
Toriello-Carey syndrome is characterized by multiple congenital anomalies. Pancreatic insufficiency is suspected when patients present with poor weight gain, diarrhea, or maldigestion. The diagnosis is confirmed by low stool elastase and pancreatic stimulation testing. To our knowledge, only one
There is a lack of recommendation regarding exploration and treatment of chronic diarrhea following gastric bypass, while it is a common side effect of this surgery. The electronic databases MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched until July 2018. Of the 553 articles identified, 35 articles were included.
The advantages of the photometrical analysis of chymotrypsin in stool of dogs are: the short duration of procedure, the small amount of stool necessary and the simplified manner of measurement at 405 nm. The test was performed in healthy as well as in chronically pancreatic insufficient dogs and
A 6-month-old male crossbred dog weighing 0.78 kg was presented with acute bilateral immature cataracts, intermittent diarrhea and growth retardation. The clinical manifestations and laboratory findings were suggestive of concurrent juvenile diabetes mellitus (DM) and exocrine pancreatic
The authors report the case of a 37-year-old female complaining of chronic diarrhea since childhood. She had gross steatorrhea and azotorrhea . Pancreatic function tests using secretin and cholecystokinin-pancreozymin stimulation, and analysis of pure pancreatic juice collected under secretin
Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency has been observed in some diabetics with peripheral neuropathy and diarrhea. Several mechanisms may be responsible for this insufficiency: (1) pancreatic atrophy, (2) disruption of the cholinergic enteropancreatic reflexes, or (3) elevated serum levels of peptides
The interrelationship of enterokinase and trypsin activities were investigated in 133 infants and children with a variety of gastrointestinal and pancreatic disorders. Fourteen patients with diarrhea and grade II mucosal injury revealed a significant (P less than 0.01) reduction of enterokinase,
A 3 mo old, female, entire Labrador retriever presented with vomiting, diarrhea, polyuria, polydipsia, polyphagia, and stunted growth. Diagnostics revealed the presence of juvenile diabetes mellitus and concurrent exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. Pancreatic histopathology showed severe pancreatic
