Surgical interventions are crucial in many complications of SAP mainly infected pancreatic necrosis in the late course of the disease, and there is a basic consensus on delayed intervention and trauma ascending treatment model, but over-emphasis on delay may cause patients to miss the best treatment period, and following a single treatment model may delay the patient′s condition. Therefore, it is of great significance for surgeons to grasp the correct indications and timing of surgical intervention and to develop appropriate surgical intervention strategies to reduce the morbidity and mortality of severe acute pancreatitis and improve the clinical prognosis of patients.
