Abstract:
:The difficulties encountered in the diagnosis of solitary pancreatic injury when there is no other indication for surgical exploration of the abdomen are discussed. We suggest that endoscopic transduodenal pancreatography is a reliable diagnostic tool of great help in evaluating such injuries with little morbidity.
