| Abstrakt: | Despite its rarity, pancreatic trauma is a serious condition because of its retroperitoneal location, association with other organ injuries, and complex bilio-vascular anatomy. Even less common are isolated pancreatic injuries. In grade four injuries, there is a debate over resectional vs. non-resectional management and appropriate treatment is particularly difficult. Here we discuss a patient with grade four pancreatic injury with pancreatic ascites presenting four days after the incident and traumatic pancreatitis. She underwent pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy and recovered well with acceptable morbidity. Competing Interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist.
