INTRODUCTION: The prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty pancreas disease (NAFPD) is estimated as 2-46% among patients without known pancreatic diseases. An association between NAFPD and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has been proposed, as well as an association between NAFPD and pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (PEI).
PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients with histologically confirmed NAFLD were included in the study. The control group consisted of individuals included in a surveillance screening program. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the pancreas was performed in all patients and fat measurement was made using 2-point Dixon imaging. Fecal elastase-1 (FE-1) was performed to evaluate pancreatic exocrine function. Additionally, a 13C-mixed triglyceride breath test (13 C-MTG-BT) was performed in patients with FE-1 < 200 μg/g.
RESULTS: Imaging signs of NAFPD were present in 17 (71%) patients; 11 (85%) from the NAFLD group and 6 (55%) from the control group. FE-1 < 200 μg/g was found in six (25%) patients (four in the NAFLD group and two in the control group); however, none of them had clinical symptoms of PEI. Therefore, in five out of six patients with low FE-1, a 13C-MTG-BT was performed, showing normal results (>20.9%) in all tested patients. Furthermore, the serum nutritional panel was normal in all patients with low FE-1. A systematic review identified five studies relevant to the topic.
CONCLUSION: NAFPD was found in 85% of patients with NAFLD and in 55% of control patients. We did not diagnose PEI in either group. A literature review showed PEI in 9-56% of patients with NAFPD.
