We determined the effects of diclofenac sodium, octreotide, and their combination on extrapancreatic organ injuries in caerulein-induced acute pancreatitis in mice. Methods. A total of 58 BALB-C male mice (25 g) were divided into seven groups and used to create a caerulein-induced acute pancreatitis model. Diclofenac sodium, octreotide, and their combination were given for treatment of caerulin-induced acute pancreatitis in mice. At the end of the experiment, the lung, liver, kidney, and stomach were removed for histopathologic assessment. Results. Histopathologic investigation revealed a statistically significant difference between the groups in mean congestion, edema, tubular injury, perirenal fat tissue inflammation, and tubular stasis scores in kidney tissue (P < 0 001, P < 0 001, P < 0 001, P < 0 001, and P = 0 048, respectively); mean congestion, edema, neutrophil inflammation, mononuclear inflammation, and emphysematous change scores in the lung (P < 0 001, P < 0 001, P < 0 001, P = 0 030, and P < 0 001, respectively); mean congestion, edema, and neutrophil inflammation scores in the stomach (P = 0 008, P = 0 014, and P < 0 001, respectively); and mean congestion and hydropic degeneration scores in the liver (P = 0 029 and P = 0 002, respectively). Conclusion. Diclofenac sodium alone ameliorates lung edema due to caerulin-induced acute pancreatitis.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess[Keyword Not Available]Article2018305152052-s2.0-85062848760Q3WOS:000449871200001Q410.1155/2018/9829208
