Chronic pancreatitis is a progressive inflammatory disease of the pancreas characterized by irreversible damage, fibrosis, and loss of both exocrine and endocrine function. It leads to persistent abdominal pain, malabsorption, and diabetes, significantly impacting quality of life. In Indore, Dr. Kripa Shankar Tiwari offers comprehensive care for chronic pancreatitis, combining medical management, nutritional support, and surgical interventions when necessary to relieve pain, restore pancreatic drainage, and prevent complications.
Patients often experience recurrent upper abdominal pain radiating to the back, greasy or bulky stools, unintended weight loss, nausea, and fatigue. Over time, insulin-dependent diabetes may develop as pancreatic endocrine cells are destroyed.

Idiopathic chronic pancreatitis
Dr. Tiwari begins with conservative measures such as pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy, tailored analgesia, diabetes management, and strict dietary modifications. When medical therapy fails or ductal obstruction persists, minimally invasive surgical options—lateral pancreaticojejunostomy (Puestow), Frey’s procedure, or partial pancreatectomy—are performed laparoscopically or robotically. These interventions decompress the pancreatic duct, remove diseased tissue, and restore digestive function, relieving pain and improving nutrition.
With specialized training in complex pancreatic surgery and years of experience, Dr. Kripa Shankar Tiwari ensures precise intervention, enhanced recovery protocols, and personalized follow-up. His patient‑first approach optimizes outcomes and minimizes long-term complications.
