Abstract

Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is a rare disease in Western countries (incidence 2–10/100 000 per year). It ultimately leads to irreversible damage of the pancreas with exocrine and endocrine insufficiency. Pain is the major clinical symptom and is present early in the course of the disease in most cases (1–3).
