Abstract:
Objective To investigate the cause and the therapy of acute pancreatitis. Methods 994 patients of acute pancreatitis admitted in the Surgery Ward in Ruijin Hospital between Jan. 2003 to Jan. 2007 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into groups according to etiology and therapy. Results In these 994 patients, 825 cases were with biliary origin (83.0%); 24 cases were alcoholic origin (2.41%); 29 cases were hyperlipidemia origin (2.92%); 16 cases were pregnancy origin (1. 61% ), 71 cases were idiopathic origin (7.14%); 4 cases were traumatic origin (0.40%); 25 cases were mixed origin (2.52%).There were 767 cases (77.2%)of mild acute pancreatitis (MAP) and 227 (22.8%) cases of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). The overall cure rate was 91.2% , 87 cases were dead with a mortality of 8.8%. The mortality of alcoholic acute pancreatitis was 37.5% , which was significantly higher than that in biliary acute pancreatitis. Non - surgical treatment, ERCP + EST, cholecystectomy and exploration of common bile duct, or laparoscopic cholecystectomy after ERCP or debridement treatment was used for biliary acute pancreatitis. All patients underwent debridement treatment were SAP patients with a post-operative mortality of 25.0% , which was significantly higher than those in other treatment group ( P < 0.01 ). There was no significant difference among the other 3 groups as regard to SAP patients and mortality. Conclusions The major cause of acute pancreatitis was biliary factor. Alcoholic pancreatitis was critical with poor prognosis. For biliary acute pancreatitis, the therapeutic efficacies of multiple treatment were not significantly different.
