Overview

Chronic pancreatitis may be divided based upon underlying morphology into large-duct type or small-duct type with or without calcification. The classification systems that have been used for chronic pancreatitis include Marseille, Marseille-Rome system, Cambridge system, TIGAR-O system, ABC grading system and Manchester system.

Classification

Classification based upon morphology

Chronic pancreatitis may be divided based on underlying morphology into:

  • Not all clinical presentations can be categorized

Classification of pancreatitis based upon area of involvement and etiology

There are various forms of chronic pancreatitis based upon the area of involvement and etiology are as follows:

Groove pancreatitis:

Groove pancreatitis is a form of segmental pancreatitis that involves confinement of the inflammation process to the groove between the duodenum, common bile duct, and head of the pancreas without any involvement of the head of pancreas.[1]

Hereditary pancreatitis:

Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP):

Tropical pancreatitis:

  • Tropical pancreatitis is one of the most common causes of chronic pancreatitis in tropical areas including south India.
  • It was thought to be caused by cassava fruit but no longer associated with it and has no clear etiology.[3]
  • It usually affects children leading to early adulthood death due to endocrine and exocrine dysfunction.
  • Serine protease inhibitor SPINK1 mutations are identified in some of the patients.[4][5]

Idiopathic pancreatitis:
