Abstract:
Objective To investigate the principles of treatment for severe acute pancreatitis(SAP). Methods A retrospective analysis of the data of 217 cases of SAP with regards to clinical features,mortality rate and conversion to surgical operation.In this group,66 cases received early operation and 24 cases were converted to operation after initial conservative treatment.Results The overall cure rate was 80.2%(174/217). Among them,90 cases underwent operative treatment,with a cure rate of 72.2%(65/90),and 127 cases underwent conservative treatment with a cure rate of 85.8%(109/127).Conclusions The initial treatment of SAP should be conservative. Operation should be performed if there is a specific indication for early surgical intervention,or for conversion to operation.
