Abstract：
:Experience with seven cases of pancreatic abscess is reviewed. All patients were treated with radical pancreatic debridement, large sump drainage with postoperative irrigation, gastrointestinal defunctionalization, antibiotic therapy and nutritional support. One patient died, for a mortality rate of 14 percent. We feel that this regimen will help maximize survival in patients with pancreatic abscess.
