Infected Pancreatic Necrosis Mimicking Pancreatic Cancer [PDF]
Although infected pancreatic necrosis can develop as a result of rare conditions involving trauma, surgery, and systemic infection with an uncommon pathogen, it usually occurs as a complication of pancreatitis.

The association between serum HbA1c and infected pancreatic necrosis in acute necrotizing pancreatitis [PDF]
Background Given the evidence that poor glycemic control is associated with immunological dysfunction, serum glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), as a useful indicator reflecting blood glucose homeostasis, has potential to predict infectious ...

Early prediction and prevention of infected pancreatic necrosis. [PDF]
Approximately 20%-30% of patients with acute necrotizing pancreatitis develop infected pancreatic necrosis (IPN), a highly morbid and potentially lethal complication. Early identification of patients at high risk of IPN may facilitate appropriate preventive measures to improve clinical outcomes.
