    Author: Li JC, Ng SS, Teoh AY, Leung KL.
    Journal: Surg Laparosc Endosc Percutan Tech; 2006 Feb; 16(1):41-3. PubMed ID: 16552379.
    Abstract:
    Pancreatic transection from blunt trauma is uncommon. A 33-year-old woman suffered from blunt pancreatic trauma after a traffic accident. Computed tomography of the abdomen showed full thickness laceration through the body of the pancreas. She underwent laparoscopic spleen-preserving pancreatectomy with minimal morbidity. She remained well and without any complications 4 years after the operation.
