pancreatic diseases.

Overall, the risk of pancreatitis decreases after gallbladder removal surgery. The low risk is because of the removal of the gallstone-containing gallbladder during surgery. Small gallstones slipping from the gallbladder are the most common cause of pancreatitis.

Acute pancreatitis can cause concentrated deep yellow urine. In addition, the obstruction of bile outflow due to pancreatic cancer or gallstone pancreatitis may also cause dark or tea-colored urine.

Death from acute pancreatitis is less than 2%. The most common risk factors include older age, obesity, severe symptoms, and the presence of organ failure.
