Pancreatic-pleural fistula in chronic pancreatitis

Arab Journal of Gastroenterology, 2012
Pancreatic-pleural fistula is a rare condition and few data related to its diagnosis and treatment are available.

PANCREATIC FISTULA

Archives of Surgery, 1937
External fistula of the pancreas may be classified as either complete or incomplete. The former commonly involves the intracapitary portion of the duct of Wirsung in such manner that all the pancreatic juice is lost to the body. This event must be exceedingly rare, as the greater number of the reports encountered in the literature deal with external ...

Treatment of Pancreatic Fistulas

European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, 2007
Pancreatic fistula is usually a complication of acute and chronic pancreatitis but can also occur postoperatively or after abdominal trauma. Conservative treatment of pancreatic fistula is time-consuming and often fails. Endoscopic treatment has become the preferred first-line treatment in many centres.

Somatostatin Analogues and Pancreatic Fistulas

Digestion, 1996
Consideration is given to the characterisation of pancreatic fistulas (PFs), the rationale for their treatment, and supportive and specific treatment measures. Choice of treatment should be based not only on the percentage of closures achieved, but also on their time and cost.

[Pancreatic fistulas].

Revista de chirurgie, oncologie, radiologie, o.r.l., oftalmologie, stomatologie. Chirurgie, 1979
Based on 17 observations the authors review the major etiopathogenic, evolutive, clinical and therapeutic aspects of pancreatic fistulae. In 14 cases the cure was achieved by medical treatment while surgery was resorted to in only three cases. The medical measures are discussed, as well as the indications for surgical treatment.
