The discoveries in molecular genetics and breakthrough visualization techniques in the last 20 years have changed our understanding of the pancreatitis causes and biomarkers, expanded our knowledge on the pathophysiology of the disease, and promoted the development of new additional conservative treatments. From the practical perspective, the physician's comprehension of the etiology is of particular importance. It is for this reason that the activities to elaborate an etiology-based classification of pancreatitis have been already started since long ago. The first internationally acknowledged system was TIGAR-O checklist, introduced in 2001. Being innovative at the time, it structured our understanding of the etiology of chronic pancreatitis. The revised version (version 2) was published in 2019 and is less known to the Russian medical community, although from the authors' point of view, it has been substantially extended and structured to be maximally convenient and useful for physicians in routine medical practice. The review presents key provisions of the TIGAR-O, version 2 and recommendations for its adaption to the Russian clinical setting.
