  • Title: [Surgical treatment of acute pancreatitis].
    Author: Babalich AK, Fesenko VP, Shul'kin SL, Stepanov MN.
    Journal: Vestn Khir Im I I Grek; 1978 Dec; 121(12):22-4. PubMed ID: 741564.
    Abstract:
    The authors studied 939 patients with acute pancreatitis; 144 of them were operated upon. Total postoperative mortality was 18%; of them 1.05% mortality was due to a mild form and 51.0% mortality occurred in pancreonecrosis and purulent pancreatitis. In extensive necrosis and abscess formation the drainage of the abdominal cavity and retroperitoneal space is recommended. The authors believe that omentopancreatopexy should be applied in oedematous and hemorrhagic forms of pancreatitis and in focal necrosis, as well.
