The present article and subsequent reviews will not be to report all what has been published, but rather to give an introduction samples that hopefully make the reader eager to read the whole article or articles with “a taste of clinical pancreatology in 2010”. The main sources of literatures were PubMed, and the additional Journals such as Pancreas, Pancreatology and Journal of the Pancreas were also scrutinized. Only some full articles in almost all languages were included in the review, other articles, however, that were too superficial or too poor in other ways, were omitted, and the publications of non-human study were excluded.
