[Role of surgery in the treatment of severe acute necrotic pancreatitis].
Between May 1975 and December 1991, a total of 208 patients were operated upon for severe acute necrotic pancreatitis. The decision whether to operate on patients with clinical and biologic aggravation despite particularly sustained intensive care was taken after evaluation of ultrasound and CT scan images. Combining pancreatic body resections and necrotic tissue excision with laparostomy and staged lavage drainage reduced global mortality rate from 49.2 to 16.4 p. cent. The criteria used for determining the indication for surgical intervention, and the technical and tactical operative procedures applied allowing this improvement, are described and discussed.
