Alcoholic chronic pancreatitis and liver cirrhosis: coincidence and differences in lifestyle

Original language description

Background/objectives: Alcoholic chronic pancreatitis (ACP) and liver cirrhosis (ALC) are sequels of excessive alcohol intake. They develop in a minority of long-term alcohol consumers. Their concomitant occurrence is rare and the organ selection remainsunknown. The aim of study was to compare patients with ACP and ALC with respect to their lifestyle. Methods: Sixty-six patients with ACP and 80 with ALC were personally interviewed about their lifestyle, drinking, and eating habits. Results: The groupsof ACP (60 males, 6 females) and ALC (64 males, 16 females) did not differ in the amount of alcohol intake (58 g/day vs. 64 g/day). Significantly more patients with ACP reported first alcohol contact before the age of 15 (28.5% vs. 88%; p = 0.03). ACP patients had the highest alcohol intake between 20 and 30 years of age (43.6% vs. 20.3%; p < 0.01), were more likely to smoke (92.4% vs. 78.7%; p = 0.02) and more likely to start smoking before the age of 15 (16.7% vs. 3.7%; p = 0.04).
