What is the reason why pancreatic enzymes are high after a kidney-pancreas transplant?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Trauma: Any handling of an organ inflicts some trauma to the organ involved and thus the elevation in pancreatic enzymes is not unexpected until the organ has a chance to recover.
