[Results of surgical therapy of acute pancreatitis].
Operative treatment of acute pancreatitis was carried out in 143 patients. The disease was caused by bilestones in 68%, by alcohol in 23%, idiopathic in 8%, and by different reasons (postoperative, helminthic disease) in 1% of the patients. The severity of the disease was classified into the grades I to III according to Kümmerle. The lowest rate of complications and lowest mortality rates were observed in operations performed within the first hours or after two weeks after the beginning of the disease. The alcoholic pancreatitis showed the lowest mortality rate (16%), despite of 81% of these patients suffering from the severe grades II and III. This may result from the decision in favour of early second look operations in these patients.
