The pancreas is a glandular organ, about six inches in length that sits behind the stomach across the back of the abdomen. It is a gland producing several important hormones, including insulin, glucagon, somatostatin, and pancreatic polypeptide. The pancreas is also a digestive organ that secretes enzymes that assist digestion and absorption of nutrients in the small intestine.
