Upper gastrointestinal endoscopic ultrasound of the head of pancreas showing multiple hyperechoic foci with postacoustic shadowing indicative of chronic calcific pancreatitis.

Cessation in episodes of pancreatitis coinciding with the reduction in triglyceride levels following dietary fat restriction and the introduction of Bezafibrate. Weights in kilograms are plotted on the UK 1990 weight charts (SD). Triglyceride levels are plotted as full dark circles, connected by dark lines. Incomplete dark lines represent levels following Bezafibrate use. Pancreatitis episodes are represented by arrows between 12 and 13 years of age. Bezafibrate was introduced after the last significant episode of pancreatitis.
