Indication for pancreatic enzyme treatment in non-pancreatic digestive diseases.

Abstract
Several studies have shown that exocrine pancreatic function may be impaired in various non-pancreatic digestive diseases. The impairment, however, is usually mild to moderate and generally does not cause malabsorption. In some patients, however, pancreatic insufficiency is severe enough to cause malabsorption, which can be effectively corrected by oral pancreatic extracts.
