Overview

Pathophysiology

Hereditary pancreatitis is defined as EITHER two or more individuals with pancreatitis in two or more generations of a family (i.e., an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance) OR Pancreatitis associated with a known germline pathogenic variant.[1]

Pathogenesis

Mode of inheritance Genes involved
Autosomal dominant  Serine protease 1 gene (PRSS1)
Autosomal recessive Serine protease inhibitor Kazal type 1 gene (SPINK1, also called pancreatic secretory trypsin inhibitor gene)
Complex genetics A combination of genetic and environmental factors
Mutations in PRSS1 gene:
Mutations in SPINK1 gene:
Mutations in CFTR  gene:
Mutations in CTRC gene:
Mutations in other genes:

Genetics

  • The most common disease associated mutations in PRSS1 gene include:[3][4][10]
    • R122H
    • N29I 
  • Other genes may include:
    • PRSS2, the anionic trypsinogen gene
    • CFTR, the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene

Associated Conditions

Hereditary pancreatitis may be associated with following syndromes:

  • Shwachman-Diamond syndrome (SDS) 
  • Pearson marrow pancreas syndrome
  • CEL maturity-onset diabetes of the young (CEL-MODY)
  • Johanson-Blizzard syndrome

Gross Pathology

  • On gross pathology, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].

Microscopic Pathology

  • On microscopic histopathological analysis, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].
