In m any cases, a nerve that is abnorm al but asym ptom atic may become symptomatic as a result of any of the following factors: stretch or compression of the nerve, generalized ischemia or metabolic derangement.

Patient-related characteristics associated w ith these neuropa 29 thies are shown in Ta b le 3 1. Many of these patients have abnormal contralateral nerve con 30 duction, suggesting a possible predisposing condition. Many patients do not complain of 29,30,31 symptoms until >48 hours post-op (if it w ere due to com pression, deficit w ould be m axi mal immediately post-op). Risk may be reduced by padding the arm at,and especially distal to, the elbow, and avoiding flexion of the elbow (especially avoiding >110� flexion which tightens the cubital tunnel retinaculum) and by reducing the amount of time spent convalescing in the 31 recumbent position with leaning on the elbows 2. May be associated with: a) median sternotomy (most common with internal mammary dissection). Posterior sternal retraction displaces the upper ribs and may stretch or compress the C6 through T1 roots (which are m ajor contributors to the ulnar nerve) b) head-down (Trendelenburg) positions where the patient is stabilized with a shoulder brace.

Risk factors other than position: prolonged duration of procedure, extremely thin body habitus, and cigarette smoking in the preoperative period a) common peroneal neuropathy: susceptible to injury in the posterior popliteal fossa where it wraps around the fibular head. May be compressed by leg holders,which should be padded in this area b) femoral neuropathy: compression of the nerve by self-retaining abdominal wall retractor or 27 rendering the nerve ischemic by occlusion of the external iliac artery. Cutaneous branches of the fem oral nerve m ay 33 be injured during labor and/or delivery (m ost are transient) c) sciatic neuropathy: stretch injuries m ay occur with hyperflexion of the hip and extension of the knee as may occur in some variants of the lithotomy position 34 d) meralgia paresthetica: tends to occur bilaterally in young, slender males positioned prone, with operations lasting 6�10 +hours. Pure sen sor y n europath ies 29 are more often temporary than motor, and expectant management for 5 days is suggested (have the patient avoid postures or activities that may further injure the nerve).

Using these classification systems may improve the quality of information for further patient treatment and further processing of the event for scientific or pharmacovigilance purposes. Level of Characteristics probability Certain A clinical event, including a laboratory test abnormality, that occurs in a plausible time relation to drug administration, and which cannot be explained by concurrent disease or other drugs or chemicals the response to withdrawal of the drug (dechallenge) should be clinically plausible the event must be definitive pharmacologically or phenomenologically using a satisfactory rechallenge procedure if necessary Probable A clinical event, including a laboratory test abnormality, with a reasonable time relation to administration of the drug, unlikely to be attributed to concurrent disease or other drugs or chemicals, and which follows a clinically reasonable response on withdrawal (dechallenge) Rechallenge information is not required to fulfill this definition Possible A clinical event, including a laboratory test abnormality, with a reasonable time relation to administration of the drug, but which could also be explained by concurrent disease or other drugs or chemicals Information on drug withdrawal may be lacking or unclear Unlikely A clinical event, including a laboratory test abnormality, with a temporal relation to administration of the drug, which makes a causal relation improbable, and in which other drugs, chemicals, or underlying disease provide plausible explanations Conditional / A clinical event, including a laboratory test abnormality, reported as an unclassified adverse reaction, about which more data are essential for a proper assessment or the additional data are being examined Unassessable / A report suggesting an adverse reaction that cannot be judged, because unclassifiable information is insufficient or contradictory and cannot be supplemented or verified Table 3. Of course, severe cases tend to be more often 30 Acute Pancreatitis reported both in the literature and in spontaneous pharmacovigilance reports. In the disease management, there are no specific issues concerning drug-induced pancreatitis, with an exception of an immediate withdrawal of the suspected drug. A difficult question is how to reintroduce medication if the causative agent is not unambiguously identified. We recommend not introducing all withdrawn drugs at the same time to distinguish the cause of a possible flare-up. The most suspected drugs should be substituted by their analogs with a different chemical structure. Secondary prevention consists of avoiding the drug which caused the episode of acute pancreatitis. Rechallenge of such an agent is justified only if its benefits outweigh the risks, as discussed above. Future research Given how inadequate the current state of knowledge on drug-induced pancreatic injury is, the area for further research in this field is remarkably wide. The majority of the knowledge on the topic has been obtained from case reports or their series. These will remain a major source of information, so it is necessary to improve their informative value substantially. Provide the age and sex of the patient, along with the indication for treatment with a drug; provide the dose and frequency of medication; b. Document a definite case of pancreatitis based on current diagnostic guidelines; c. Provide information on the time course between initiation of drug and onset of pancreatitis; d. Exclude the most common causes of pancreatitis; document a positive response to withdrawal of medication;. Higher level of knowledge may be obtained by performing multicenter studies targeted at the etiology of non-alcoholic, non-biliary pancreatitis. Several thousands of acute pancreatitis cases must be involved in these studies to reveal the actual occurrence of drug induced pancreatitis. Any new pharmacoepidemiological study on this topic would be useful, but to improve the validity of its outcomes, substantially better input data are required. For this purpose, it would be optimal that each single case of acute pancreatitis included in such a study be documented according to the above principles. An obvious field for this research is the issue of diseases with a high Acute Pancreatitis Induced by Drugs 31 incidence of this disorder. Another issue is the experimental pharmacological research of mechanisms by which xenobiotics can damage the pancreatic tissue as well as the common mechanisms of immune-mediated tissue injury caused by drugs. Any substantial progress in this research can contribute to a progress in two scientific challenges: recognizing the nature of more frequent causes of acute pancreatitis and also recognizing the cause and pathogenesis of idiosyncratic adverse drug reaction. Epidemiological studies show a very wide range of its incidence, but at least the absolute number of its cases is undoubtedly increasing. We are able to identify the drugs with the greatest risk and populations at risk, but the absolute risk for medication users is still very low. A better understanding of drug mediated pancreatic injury can also help to understand the etiology of more common types of acute pancreatitis. Research in drug-induced acute pancreatitis is both a challenge and an opportunity to improve the collaboration of gastroenterology and clinical pharmacology. Introduction Evidence accumulated for the past two decades leads to the conclusion that obesity enhances the development of acute pancreatitis and worsens its clinical course. We will try to give an answer to this issue by presenting the scientific data accumulated thus far. According to the definition, one should calculate the total amount of body fat a person has and deduct the �normal� amount of fat from it. The method is based on the presumption that a person�s excess weight predominantly consists of fat. The advantage of this method is its application simplicity, namely the lack of complicated procedures needed to determine it as well as the fact that it has been globally accepted. Other methods used to determine obesity measure the amount of subcutaneous fat tissue. These methods are based on the fact that the amount of subcutaneous fat tissue correlates well with the amount of excess fat tissue. The methods include the measurement of skin fold thickness, waist diameter and waist-to-hip ratio. The limiting factor for these methods is the presence of edema in the investigated areas (liver cirrhosis, heart and kidney diseases). It is used to measure body composition based on the difference in the absorption of X-rays in different types of tissues (bone, fat, muscle, water). After two decades of tedious work in finding the best method for estimating the amount of body fat in acute pancreatitis, scientists offer no clear answers. The following sections offer a detailed insight into the best methods for estimating the amount of body fat in acute pancreatitis. Only few epidemiological studies have tried to establish a direct link between obesity and the onset of acute pancreatitis, but the studies� findings are contradictory. Therefore, it is hard to determine whether or not obesity has a direct impact on the onset of acute pancreatitis.
