Most pancreatic injuries are minor and can be treated by external
drainage. CT represents the best noninvasive diagnostic method for
the detection of pancreatic injury, with sensitivity and accuracy of
at least 80%. Morbidity and mortality rates for isolated pancreatic
trauma are directly related to the presence of damage at the
pancreatic duct. This article is based on 4 patients who have applied
to our Department of General Surgery in Ümraniye Training and
Research Hospital between April 2009 and December 2011. Three of
the patients were men, and one of them was woman. The average age
of the patients was 22 (17-28). Two of them have undergone surgery
and drainage. Two patients have been treated with conservative
treatment. Pancreatic fistula was seen in two patients. External
drainage and conservative treatment are effective treatments for the
low grade pancreatic injuries.
