Abstract:
Dyspepsia is a common group of clinical symptoms and can be classified into organic and functional dyspepsia. Patients with chronic pancreatitis (CP) often have the symptoms of dyspepsia such as fatty diarrhea, abdominal distention, and abdominal pain, and most patients have pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (PEI), which belongs to organic dyspepsia. In clinical practice, the diagnosis of PEI and dyspepsia requires a comprehensive assessment of clinical manifestations, nutritional status, and pancreatic exocrine function, and an individualized treatment regimen should be developed based on such factors. However, some patients with normal exocrine function may have the symptoms of dyspepsia, and the diagnosis and treatment of such patients are still difficulties in clinical practice. This article reviews the advances in the diagnosis and treatment of dyspepsia in CP patients.
