In '''horses''', necrosis and inflammation results due to migration of parasites, usually strongyle larvae, releasing pancreatic enzymes causing autodigestion. Destructive granulomatous pancreatitis is a part of multisystemic eosinophilic epitheliotrophic syndrome.

In '''pigs''' suppuration of the pancreas can occasionally arise as an extension from nearby infection, eg. peritonitis and perforated oesophageal ulcers.

== Chronic Interstitial Pancreatitis ==

Chronic pancreatitis often occurs following ongoing inflammation with progression to irreversible damage and impaired function. There is usually fibrosis and reduction in acinar mass. This condition can occur in all species as a consequence of obstruction of the pancreatic ducts, [[Vitamin A Deficiency|vitamin A deficiency]] may predispose to this. The condition is most common in the dog, but also in cat, horse and cattle. The [[Pancreas - Anatomy & Physiology#Endocrine|islets of Langerhans]] tend to be preserved. If chronic pancreatitis persisits it can lead to [[Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency]] (EPI). In cats, chronic pancreatitis can also lead to [[Diabetes Melitus]] developing.
