Clin Radiol. 1979 Mar;30(2):179-82. doi: 10.1016/s0009-9260(79)80146-4.

Abstract

A consecutive series of 59 patients with abnormal pancreatograms indicative of chronic pancreatitis included five patients who also had inflammatory bowel disease. This is greater number than would be expected by chance. The cases are presented, and possible explanations are discussed.
