Abstract
In vascularized pancreas transplantation the exocrine tissue is inevitably transplanted along with the islets. However, transplantation of the pancreas is indicated for endocrine insufficiency only. A great variety of methods have been used in the management of exocrine secretion, both in clinical and experimental transplantation (Sutherland 1981a,b). Despite the numerous different surgical methods employed, there are only two principal procedures: transplantation with preserved and with suppressed exocrine secretion.
