As our standard of living continues to improve, the chances of us suffering from diseases are also increasing, and pancreatic diseases are appearing more and more often. There are many pancreatic diseases, including inflammation and tumors, mainly pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, benign tumors of the pancreas, pancreatic cysts and so on. Among the pancreatic diseases, pancreatitis often visits during the New Year holidays when overeating and mingling, while pancreatic cancer is a more common tumor disease that is easily associated with celebrities. Huang Ju, former Vice Premier of the State Council, died of pancreatic cancer, and pancreatic cancer took the life of Steve Jobs, former CEO of Apple, at the end of the previous year, as well as Shen Tianxia, our favorite famous Hong Kong actress, who also passed away due to pancreatic cancer. Professor Chen Rufus of Sun Yat-Sen Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University said that the incidence of pancreatic diseases used to be higher in developed countries, while the incidence in China has been increasing in recent years. Pancreatic disease is a rich disease Low incidence rate and high mortality rate A 36-year-old Yunnan native, Zhong, was admitted to hospital with sudden onset of abdominal pain. After examination, the patient suffered from severe pancreatitis combined with necrosis of most of the pancreas and kidney failure, and there were different degrees of damage to the lungs, pancreatic endocrine, blood system, nervous system, and gastrointestinal tract. After admission, the patient fell into a state of unconsciousness and shallow coma, and his condition deteriorated several times. Experts point out that pancreatic diseases have risen dramatically in recent years. Previously, pancreatitis was a Western disease, a “disease of affluence” like diabetes. However, with the change in social patterns and the improvement of living standards, many pancreatic diseases are on the rise in China. From the morbidity trend, the incidence of pancreatic disease is not high, accounting for only 3%, but the mortality rate has soared to the third place, accounting for about 67%; and pancreatic cancer is the king of cancer, is the worst prognosis after all cancers. The high mortality rate of pancreatitis is most closely related to diet. It is divided into mild pancreatitis and heavy pancreatitis, most of which are mild. The mild form of pancreatitis is mild, with a quick recovery, and is usually treated in a general ward with no sequelae after healing. In contrast, the above case is a heavy pancreatitis, the incidence is relatively rare, with an incidence rate of about 10%, but the death rate is high, there are sequelae, and it costs 300,000-500,000. Why is it so expensive? The main reason is that when severe pancreatitis occurs, the pancreas becomes necrotic and infected, releasing a large amount of toxic substances into the blood and causing systemic multi-organ functional damage. The average mortality rate of severe pancreatitis is more than 30%, which increases significantly with the increase of failed organs, and is almost 100% when there are more than 5 organs failing. Pancreatic diseases are mainly treated by internal medicine In addition, experts told us that pancreatitis is individualized and comprehensive treatment, mainly internal medicine treatment, early treatment is mainly conservative treatment, most of them do not need surgery, through fasting, gastrointestinal decompression and drug combination treatment, the drugs used include antibiotics, growth inhibitors and so on. However, in cases where medical treatment still fails to resolve the problem, surgical intervention should be performed. Because the pancreas is a retroperitoneal organ with nearby organs such as the stomach and liver and abundant blood vessels, it determines the complexity of its anatomy. Experts say, “Pancreatic surgery is the most time-consuming procedure in general surgery, requiring a skilled surgeon to operate and typically 4-5 hours to complete an operation.” At present, pancreatic diseases also have minimally invasive treatment, including percutaneous puncture and drainage, laparoscopy, nephroscopy, gastrointestinal endoscopy, minimally invasive retroperitoneal access, etc. Minimally invasive treatment is less damaging, less painful, faster recovery, no residual too large scars, patients are more willing to accept this type of treatment. The pancreatic disease is closely related to diet, and special attention should be paid to the appetite, pancreatic disease to the New Year. Professor Chen Rufus reminded that less smoking, high-fat and fried things to eat less, eat more fish and tofu, cooking methods more steam and stew. Do not eat too sour, too spicy, too salty, a meal eat seventy to eighty percent full. Especially for patients with chronic pancreatitis, smoking and alcohol should be banned, low-fat diet, do not eat animal fat, animal offal, milk, eat vegetable oil, not animal oil, older patients should pay more attention. Do not eat sweets and eat less fruit with diabetes. In addition, pancreatic diseases are related to mood. Bad mood, the weather changes, people are particularly prone to illness. The mood is good, the immunity is improved, on the contrary, the mood is poor, the immunity is poor, it is easy to lead to poor resistance, pancreatitis is also prone to.
