Pancreatitis was produced in 29 mini-pigs by partial occlusion of the pancreatic duct; occlusion was performed by implanting a T-drain into the duct. Inflammatory changes were induced additionally by applying radiopaque material in excess. Acute and chronic pancreatitic lesions could be diagnosed by X-ray examination, evaluation of blood chemistry and by histology.
