title: Managing pancreatoduodenal trauma.
abstract: Pancreatoduodenal injuries are an uncommon but important source of morbidity and mortality in the trauma patient. They require a multidisciplinary approach, with a pancreatic surgeon involved at the earliest opportunity. The investigation and management of these injuries are discussed along with the role of operative intervention.
