ABSTRACT

Postoperative pancreatitis is a rare entity characterized by the presence of clinical and imagenological pancreatic inflammation after surgery of the near or far gastrointestinal tract. The cause is probably multifactorial, with no preventive measures. Diagnostic dilemma and morbidity and mortality associated with this condition makes this case interesting. We describe the case of a 65 years old female presenting acute pancreatitis attributed to surgery performed 3 days before to resolve intestinal obstruction.


La pancreatitis post-cirugía es una entidad poco frecuente caracterizada por la presencia clínica e imagenológica de inflamación del páncreas luego de una cirugía del tracto gastrointestinal. La causa es probablemente multifactorial, y no existen medidas preventivas. El dilema del diagnóstico y la morbi-mortalidad asociadas a esta condición hace que este caso sea muy interesante. Describimos el caso de un sujeto de sexo femenino de 65 años, con pancreatitis aguda atribuida a una cirugía realizada 3 días antes con el objetivo de resolver una obstrucción intestinal.
