The pancreas is a small organ in the human body that plays a big role in your body's digestive and hormonal systems. It also helps regulate blood sugar levels. When something goes wrong with it, your entire well-being is affected. At Aster CMI Hospital, we understand how overwhelming this journey can be. That’s why our experts offer advanced treatments and complete care.
Pancreatic Disorders treated at Aster CMI Hospital
At Aster CMI Hospital, we treat:
- Chronic pancreatitis: Happens when the injury or damage to the pancreas never stops. It is a long-term progressive condition.
- Acute Pancreatitis / Walled-Off Necrosis: Happens when the pancreas is attempting to recover from a minor, short-term injury.
- Pancreatic Cancer / Periampullary Cancer / IPMN / NET: It includes malignancies and precancerous conditions. The pancreas and surrounding areas are affected in this condition.
- Pseudocyst Pancreas: A benign, fluid-filled mass that develops outside of the pancreas.
We provide the best treatment and complete care for these conditions.

Pancreatic disorders develop quickly. When the disorders progress, the symptoms start to occur. Some of the common signs include:

It is important to consult a doctor if these symptoms persist.
