ABSTRACT

Introduction: Pancreatic trauma is uncommon and challenging to diagnose. Contrarily, severe injuries to the kidney, spleen, and liver are frequent and typically easy to detect with imaging methods. Pancreas injuries can cause a significant amount of morbidity and mortality. Reviewing the institution's experience with this rather infrequent injury was the goal of this study. Materials and Method: The patients' records were collected from the data records at the tertiary care center for patients who had pancreatic damage and were followed up for a year. The American Association for the Surgery of Trauma pancreatic damage grade scores were assigned to each patient using the radiologic and surgical findings. Clinical examination and CT results were predominantly used to make the diagnosis in patients who underwent non-operative treatment. The data are presented as descriptive statistics. Results: Only 2.2% of the total cases that presented to the trauma center were finalized as pancreatic injuries. Trauma to the abdomen was seen in nearly half the cases brought. Most of the subjects in pancreatic injuries were in grade 3. Mortality was noted maximum for the grade 3 and 4 cases. Conclusions: While high-grade pancreatic injury almost always requires an operational intervention, low-grade pancreatic injury with an intact main pancreatic duct may be effectively handled non-operatively. When possible, distal pancreatectomy with spleen preservation is the ideal procedure for distal pancreatic trans-action. A patient who is hemodynamically stable with complex pancreaticoduodenal damage, which is related to a high death rate, should undergo Whipple resection.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: The findings of previous studies in the management of acute appendicitis with peritonitis complications are debatable. Thus, in this study, we aim to evaluate two surgical procedures in the management of acute appendicitis. Material and Methods: We piloted an observational prospective study on 50 subjects of both genders with acute appendicitis and peritonitis complication. They were divided equally into two groups who received laparoscopic and conventional open surgery. The data were collected for the various clinical parameters, the complications that followed, and the success rates. The data were analyzed using the t test deliberating P < 0.05 as significant. Results: We observed a similar distribution of genders, and the mean was 41 ± 0.5 years. We observed that among the laparoscopic group, the longer the surgical time, the shorter the stay at the hospital. Lower complications though not significant were noted than the open method. Conclusion: The laparoscopic approach may be suggested for the management of patients with acute appendicitis and with peritonitis. This method showed early patient discharge and fewer post-surgical complications.
