The most common cause of pancreatic atrophy is chronic pancreatitis, which is mainly characterized by pancreatic atrophy, as well as calcification of the pancreas and pancreatic duct stones.

In addition to pancreatic calcification, chronic pancreatitis can also be characterized by endocrine and exocrine insufficiency, and diarrhea when exocrine insufficiency is present.
