متن کاملPrevention of diabetes for up to 13 years by autoislet transplantation after pancreatectomy for chronic pancreatitis.
Patients with chronic pancreatitis who undergo total pancreas resection inevitably become diabetic unless their islets are autotransplanted to prevent diabetes. We studied patients who underwent this procedure to assess its long-term efficacy in providing stable glucose regulation. Six patients were followed for up to 13 (6.2 +/- 1.7) years after intrahepatic islet autotransplantation. From 290...
متن کاملTotal pancreatectomy and islet cell autotransplantation: Definitive treatment for chronic pancreatitis.
