Abstract:
Objective To explore the timing of surgical intervention for severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Meth-ods One hundred and fifty-seven cases with SAP treated in our hospital from March, 1998 to December, 2007 were analyzed retrospectively. Influence of surgical intervention and conservative treatment on curative rate were e-valuated in pancreatic necrotic area and with or without infected pancreatic necrosis. Results The overall curative rate of surgical treatment and conservative treatment was 80.4%, 87.1% respectively; the two methods had no sta-tistical difference. Conservative treatment was better than surgical treatment in patients with lesa than 30% necrotic area and surgical treatment was better than conservative treatment in patients with more than 50% necrotic area. But the two methods had no statistical difference in 30% ～ 50% necrotic area. Conservative management was better than surgical management in sterile pancreatic necrosis, but surgical management was better than conservative manage-ment in pancreatic necrosis with infection or suspection of infection. Conclusion Surgical intervention treatment plays an important role in SAP patients, we should combine pancreatic necrotic area and with or without infection to choose the timing of surgical intervention for severe acute pancreatitis.
