The primary objectives in the treatment of acute pancreatitis are essentially: pain control, electrolyte and fluids support, energy intake, and removal of the causal agent, attenuation of inflammation, and prevention and eventual treatment of local and systemic complications in necrotiz- ing forms.2 Gallstones are the predominant etiological factor espe- cially in Italy followed by alcohol abuse.3	cache/ecj-7617.pdf	txt/ecj-7617.txt
