Deskripsi
Severe pancreaticoduodenal injuries are rare and no surgeon and institute get enough number of cases to acquire expertise. Hence the management of such injuries remains controversial. We report a case of 28 years male who sustained a severe pancreaticoduodenal injury and was managed with emergency pancreaticoduodenectomy with immediate reconstruction. Various approach has been described in literature with variable outcome. Damage control strategy seems to be most useful approach and major resection should be a part of debridement whenever required. Immediate reconstruction can be carried out safely if patient remain hemodynamically and metabolically stable.
