  • Title: [Interest of bilio-pancreatic morphologic study in management of acute pancreatitis (author's transl)].
    Author: Gelin M, Dunham F, Engelholm L, Cremer M, Lambilliotte JP.
    Journal: Acta Chir Belg; 1981; 80(6):357-62. PubMed ID: 7331647.
    Abstract:
    The interest of morphologic investigations in the diagnosis, the prognosis and the treatment of acute pancreatitis was analyzed in a series of 120 patients. The systematic endoscopy of the biliary tract yields a distinction between the biliary and the non-biliary sources of pancreatitis and can be followed immediately by an endoscopic sphincterotomy. Th morphological study of the bilio-pancreatic area can complete the prognostic indexes defined by the clinical and biological data, document the extension of the intra- and extrapancreatic necrosis and precise the indication and the choice of a surgical treatment.
