Endoscopic Ultrasonography May Select Subjects Having Asymptomatic Chronic Pancreatic Hyperenzymemia Who Require a More Strict Follow-up.

ObjectivesWe have previously shown that at least 50% of patients with asymptomatic chronic pancreatic hyperenzymemia (ACPH) may develop morphological pancreatic alterations. Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) may detect small lesions, and its sensitivity seems to be higher than other imaging technique
