PurposeTraumatic pancreatitis which has a high mortality rate is likely to be misdiagnosed. This study aims to analyze the clinical manifestations and CT findings of traumatic pancreatitis, so as to improve its early diagnosis and treatment.Materials and Methods The clinical manifestations and CT images of 25 patients with traumatic pancreatitis confirmed by operation or post-treatment review were analyzed retrospectively. Pancreatic injuries were classified as superficial lesions (with the depth of trauma less than 50% of the thickness of pancreas) and deep lesions (with the depth of trauma more than 50% of the thickness of pancreas). The clinical manifestations, CT findings and the complicated organ injuries in these two types of pancreatic trauma were analyzed.Results Eight patients had superficial lesions, and 17 patients were with deep lesions. Nine patients had complicated organ injuries. Patients with deep lesions showed a more severe abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, rebound tenderness and muscular tension than those patients with superficial lesions. The serum amylases increased in all the patients. Pancreatic-relevant complications including pancreas pseudocyst, pancreatic fluid leakage and peritonitis occurred in 7 patients who accepted a delayed operation. Three out of 8 patients with superficial pancreatic injuries were missed on plain CT scan in the first time. Among 17 patients with deep pancreatic trauma, 12 had incomplete laceration, 5 had complete laceration, and 1 was missed in the first time. The direct CT features of pancreatic trauma were focal abnormal attenuation and/or discontinuity in pancreatic parenchyma.Conclusion The clinical manifestations of patients with traumatic pancreatitis are complicated. The direct CT features of pancreatic trauma include heterogeneous density of pancreatic parenchyma and/or interruption. Trauma's depth is closely related to the main injury of pancreatic duct. It is worth to be aware of the indirect signs such as peripancreatic oozy and other viscera damages.

Objective:To determine risk factors for postoperative esophageal refractory stenosis after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) of large-scale early esophageal carcinomas and precancerous lesions.Methods:Two hundred and twelve early esophageal carcinomas or precancerous lesions in 186 patients who underwent ESD larger than 3/4 the total esophageal circumference in Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, between July 2013 and December 2017 were divided into two groups according to session number of endoscopic balloon dilatation (EBD), the refractory stenosis group ( n=69, ≥6 EBD sessions) and non-refractory stenosis group ( n=117, ≤5 EBD sessions). Student′s t-test or Mann-Whitney U test was used for univariate analysis and χ2 test and Fisher exact test were used for comparison of categorical variables. Logistic regression was used for multivariate analysis. Results:Compared with the non-refractory stenosis group, the refractory stenosis group had statistically significant differences in the longitudinal diameter of lesions, the longitudinal diameter of artificial ulcer, lesion location, the circumferential range of lesions and the composition of the muscular layer injury (all P<0.05). After eliminating the factor of the vertical diameter of artificial ulcer (because there was significant correlation between the vertical diameter of artificial ulcer and the longitudinal diameter of lesion in clinical practice), multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the longitudinal diameter of lesion>5 cm (VS ≤5 cm: P=0.003, OR=3.531, 95% CI:1.547-8.060), the location of lesion in the upper thoracic segment (VS lower thoracic segment: P=0.001, OR=36.720, 95% CI:4.233-318.551), in the cervical segment (VS lower thoracic segment: P=0.003, OR=24.959, 95% CI:2.927-212.795), the whole circumferential lesion (VS ≥3/4 but not the whole circumference: P<0.001, OR=10.082, 95% CI:4.196-24.226) and the presence of muscular layer injury ( P<0.001, OR=7.128, 95% CI:2.748-18.486) were more likely to lead to esophageal refractory stenosis after ESD. Conclusion:The longitudinal lesion diameter of more than 5 cm, the circumferential extent of esophageal ESD, cervical or upper-thoracic esophageal lesions, and muscular layer damage are independent risk factors for postoperative esophageal refractory stenosis after ESD for large-scale esophageal cancer and precancerous lesions.
