Diseases of a similar etiology are often called concomitant. It is about the diseases of those organs, which are primarily at gunpoint in the attack of pancreatitis, will be discussed in this article.

Skin is the largest organ of a person, which in addition to the protective and thermoregulatory function, is endowed with excretory capacity.
