Isolated Distal Pancreatic Transection Secondary to an Abdominal Blunt Trauma - A Case Report AA Medina Velasco JM Ramia V Arteaga Peralta J ValenzuelaAJ Lopez Marcano<p>Isolated pancreatic trauma (IPT) secondary to an abdominal blunt trauma, is an uncommon condition- IPT diagnosis usually is insidious, requiring the integration of multiple parameters, regarding anamnesis, physical examination, blood analysis and radiologic tests. Nowadays, exists controversy in the literature about management of the IPT. We report a case of a young male with a body-tail pancreatic transection, secondary to an abdominal blunt trauma. Distal pancreatectomy with spleen preservation was performed with successful postoperative course. We discuss diagnostic and therapeutical options in IPT.</p> Archives of Clinical Gastroenterology - Peertechz Publications 2016-06-28 Case Report https://doi.org/10.17352/2455-2283.000021 en Copyright © AA Medina Velasco et al.
