[Acute pancreatitis caused by isolated involvement of the pancreas after closed abdominal injury].
Acute post-traumatic pancreatitis in unusual, accounting for no more than 1% of all cases of acute pancreatitis. The authors describe a case of acute pancreatitis in a patient who had a closed abdominal trauma during a football match. The recommended procedures for ensuring early diagnoses are described. Prognosis and management is dependent upon pathology and extension of lesions. Hemorrhagic and necrotic pancreatitis carries a poor prognosis, especially when diagnosis is delayed.
