[Injuries of the pancreas in children. Apropos of 4 cases].
The authors report 4 cases of pancreatic injury in children : 1 distal transection, 2 simple contusions and 1 pseudocyst of the head. They review the diagnostic approach to and treatment which is centered on the state of the pancreatic duct: external drainage when the pancreatic duct is safe, simple contusion or even pseudocyst, distal pancreatectomy, with or without splenectomy when the pancreatic duct has been transected in a complete pancreatic transection complicated or not with a pseudocyst.
