acute pancreatitis, including necrosis and haemorrhage, chronic pan­ creatitis and cancer of the pancreas). In all cases the diagnosis was verified through operation or post mortem examination. The contents of diastase in the urine was abnormal in all the cases of acute pancreatitis that were examined before 3 days had passed since the onset of the disease. In some few patients the primary increase in diastase in the urine only lasted for one or two days, wherefore the importance of an early examination is emphasized. In several patients periods with increased values of diastase were demonstrated later in the disease, besides the primary increase; therefore the importance of systematic, daily determinations of diastase in patients who are admitted so late that the primary in­ crease may have subsided, is pointed out. In chronic pancreatitis increase in diastase was only found, if the disease was complicated by acute pancreatitis, the passing of gall stones, or other special conditions. This also holds good for carcinoma of the pancreas. In this disease pathologic values of diastase were only demonstrated in patients who simultaneously suffered from acute pancreatitis or stones in the choledochus. Litteratur. 1.
