Traumatic pancreatic transection treated endoscopically

2007 
Blunt abdominal injury to the pancreas is infrequent and associated with high mortality and morbidity. Treatment of this condition depends on whether the main pancreatic duct has been injured. There is, however, no consensus on the best way of treating pancreatic transection. We present a case of a child with pancreatic disruption and a large pseudocyst treated by double channel papillotomy and endoscopic cyst-gastrostomy.
