  • Title: [Intestinal sub-occlusion caused by chronic caudal pancreatitis].
    Author: Burlui D, Strutenschi T.
    Journal: Rev Chir Oncol Radiol O R L Oftalmol Stomatol Chir; 1980; 29(5):363-7. PubMed ID: 6453364.
    Abstract:
    The authors present a case of intestinal subocclusion due to chronic pancreatitis and peripancreatitis, in which the relationship between the cause and the effect could not be established before surgery. The intervention consisted in caudal pancreatectomy and the freeing of the splenic angle of the large bowel from the peripancreatitic process. This rare complication of pancreatitis is diagnosed mostly during surgery, and the surgeon is confronted with a difficult choice of the best type of intervention, which can vary from simple viscerolysis to exeresis of the colic segment and of the caudal portion of the pancreas.
