A basic difficulty is the uncertainty whether a medication or some other factor is responsible for the condition. 128 In each instance, there was a delay of several weeks to several months before the development of pancreatitis. Many of the patients were elderly with either severe congestive heart failure or severe hypertension. Hypovolemia induced by the diuretic rather than a toxic property of the diuretic itself may have led to severe hypotension and ischemia of the pancreas. It is also possible that the cause of the pancreatitis was totally unrelated to the use of the medication.

In addition, there is evidence that pressure relationships in the dog may favor the reflux of duodenal contents into the pancreatic ducts without apparent ill effect. 96 Furthermore, in man, following sphincteropia sty of both the ampulla of Vater and the duct of Wirsung, barium can be seen to reflux not only into the common bile duct but also into the pancreatic duct without ill effect. For these reasons, one would anticipate that structural abnormalities of the duodenum would rarely be associated with acute pancreatitis in man.
