    Author: Archer S, Levitt S, Drury P.
    Journal: Aust N Z J Surg; 1991 Jul; 61(7):542-4. PubMed ID: 1859316.
    Abstract:
    Although segmental bowel necrosis is a recognized complication of pancreatitis, the duodenum is rarely involved. We report a unique case of acute duodenal obstruction characterized by transmural necrosis and intramural duodenal haematoma in a young man with acute alcohol-induced pancreatitis. The patient recovered following pancreaticoduodenectomy.
