CLINICAL AND EPIDEMIOLOGICAL FEATURES OF POSTTRAUMATIC PANCREATITIS IN CHILDREN

Аннотация

Conclusion. Post-traumatic pancreatitis in children is typical for boys aged 11–14 years after a "helmet injury" and is accompanied by a high frequency of AAST grade III–IV injuries and the formation of local complications. Early assessment of pancreatic enzymes in combination with ultrasound and MSCT is the key to timely diagnosis. Organ-preserving surgical techniques with local sealing of the pancreatic defect and covering with the omentum improve the immediate results of treatment and reduce the risk of fistula complications.
