Pancreatitis is an inflammation of the pancreas that may be brought on by years of heavy consumption of alcohol or gall stones. The pancreas is a large gland behind the stomac â¦ h and close to the duodenum. The duodenum is the upper part of the small intestine.
Pancreatitis is inflammation of the pancreas. This condition usually begins at an acute stage, and in some cases, may become chronic after a severe and/or recurrent attack. When the pancreas becomes inflamed, the digestive enzymes attack the tissue that produces them. One of these enzymes, called trypsin, can cause tissue damage and bleeding, and can cause the pancreas blood cells and blood vessels to swell.
