Pancreatitis is a common cause of abdominal symptoms and pain. If diagnosed, especially in the young, the question as to the etiology arises.
Watch our guest speaker, Prof. Matthias Löhr, Professor of Gastroenterology & Hepatology at Karolinska Institutet and Prof. Peter Bauer as they examine how genetic markers can indicate different mechanisms and different consequences for patients with pancreatitis, and how this can indicate for example a significantly increased risk to develop pancreatic cancer.
In addition, learn how several rare diseases have pancreatic affections that can be diagnosed.
