Popis: Blunt abdominal traumas constitute the largest portion of intra-abdominal injuries in children. According to their frequency, pancreatic injuries are in the fourth place behind the rupture of the spleen, liver and kidneys. Surgical treatment of minor pancreatic injury is well accepted in clinical practice. Treatment of severe injury with capsular, ductal and parenchymal disruption of the pancreas is controversial and delicate because it requires surgical treatment in strictly selected cases. Posttraumatic pancreatic pseudocysts are the most common complications of traumatic lesions of the pancreas. Proper consideration with correct therapeutic approach in the choice of nonoperative surgical methods of treatment in blunt pancreatic injuries is crucial for the reduction of morbidity and mortality in the pediatric population.
