Clinicoendoscopic morphological and morphofunctional studies in 50 patients with chronic cholecystitis and 50 patients with chronic biliary pancreatitis have demonstrated that morphometric analysis of the antral stomach endocrine cells secreting melatonin, neurotensin and somatostatin can be used in addition to standard laboratory and device methods for differentiation chronic biliary pancreatitis with biliary pathology.
