Abstract

Lung injury is a severe complication of acute pancreatitis that increases the mortality rate of the disease. The pathophysiology of acute pancreatitis has been studied in several experimental models, but the kinetics of pulmonary complications in relation to the pancreatic disease is not completely understood. We then studied the severity of acute pancreatitis-associated lung injury over 18h in rats that had taurocholic acid injection in the pancreatic duct and determined whether blood collected from rats with pancreatitis is toxic enough to induce injury in normal lungs.
