Infected pseudocyst as a consequence of tropical pancreatitis presenting as psoas abscess is unusual. We report a 40-year-old man who presented with pain in the right lumbar region. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Recent reports indicate change in profile of CP in India with identification of novel risk factors; and delayed presentation as well as delayed onset of exocrine and endocrine insufficiency. [tropicalgastro.com]

The prognosis of TCP patients has improved in the last two to three decades because of the better understanding of the natural history of TCP but its aetio-pathogenesis continues to be elusive. [posterng.netkey.at]

In the last few decades, the prognosis has markedly improved as a result of better management of diabetes. [journals.lww.com]

The prognosis is good relative to other causes of chronic pancreatitis. [diapedia.org]

Treatment and prognosis The presence of necrosis implies a poorer prognosis with mortality rates reported up to 14% 3, if sterile. [radiopaedia.org]

After diagnosis the patient prognosis is dismal with few surviving over 5 years. Treatment regimes are highly patient variable and often the patients are too sick to undergo surgical resection or chemotherapy. [mdpi.com]

CONCLUSION: Malnutrition is not an etiological factor of TP and weight loss occurred as a result of low calorie intake after the onset of TP. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Etiology of this disease is still not clear. The authors examine various hypotheses of etiology of TP and advocate the concept wherein pancreatitis of different types may have common etiological factors, but in differing proportions. [citeseerx.ist.psu.edu]

The cyanide hypothesis is consistent with the known epidemiologic and metabolic characteristics of these two contrasting forms of pancreatitis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Yet a better understanding of the pathogenesis of tropical chronic pancreatitis could further improve treatment options and offer an opportunity for prevention of this disorder, which leads to severe morbidity in a large proportion of affected patients [journals.lww.com]

Given that diabetes of subjects with TCP is similar to type 1 diabetes in that both are associated with a defect in pancreatic insulin secretion, it is likely that intensive insulin could prevent macrovascular disease in both these groups. [pancreas.imedpub.com]
