[The postoperative pancreatitis after the pancreatic surgery].

The results of 302 operations on the pancreas were analyzed: of them 107 were pancreatoduodenal resections; 67 were distal resections of the pancreas; 74 were various resections of the head of the pancreas and middle resections and 54 other operations. The postoperative pancreatitis was registered in 178 patients. The preventive use of the octreotide intraoperatively and in early postoperative period showed no influence on the frequency and severity of the postoperative pancreatitis. The ultrasound was the optimal screening diagnostig method, whereas the computed tomography was the best in pancreonecrosis diagnostics and the volume of the pancreatic tissue damaged. Of 178 patients with the postoperative pancreatitis 17 died, the lethality rate was 9.5%.
