title: [High risk factors in the prognosis of acute necrotizing pancreatitis].
abstract: In this study, Ranson's risk factors were evaluated on 36 cases of acute necrotizing pancreatitis. It was found that all 13 cases with more than 7 factors each died, the mortality rate was 100%, and 2 of 5 cases with 5-7 factors each succumbed with the mortality rate of 40%. The remaining 14 cases, all of them with less than 3 factors each, survived the stormy attacks. The authors believe that Ranson's risk factors are reliable in predicting the prognosis of acute necrotizing pancreatitis.
