Pancreatitis in Hyperlipemic Mink (Mustela vison).

The article provides information on a study which investigated a case of pancreatitis in hyperlipemic mink. The mink developed pancreatic lesions, which included overt variably sized nodules with hemorrhage and necrosis. The study particularly addressed the exocrine pancreatic lesions at the intermediate phase and the progression from the earlier lesions with necrosis to later granulomatouslesions in 4- to 19-week-old mink.
