Abstract: | Pancreatic transection from blunt trauma is uncommon. A 33-year-old woman suffered from blunt pancreatic trauma after a traffic accident. Computed tomography of the abdomen showed full thickness laceration through the body of the pancreas. She underwent laparoscopic spleen-preserving pancreatectomy with minimal morbidity. She remained well and without any complications 4 years after the operation. |
