Abstract
- The annular pancreas which is responsible for one third of the cases of duodenal obstruction plays a central role in pancreatic malformations. Therapy of choice is a duodeno-duodenostomy. Prognosis is deteriorated by frequent premature delivery, Down's syndrome and associated malformations. Among pancreatic tumors the congenital pancreatic cyst, the cysto-papillary adenoma and the insulinoma are particularly considered the latter in connection with the discussion of hyperinsulinism which also nesidioblastosis is associated. Pancreatic tumors to require surgical therapy and a subtotal excision of the pancreas is frequently necessary in nesidioblastosis. Besides pancreatitis which is diagnosed in Germany also pancreatic rupture with subsequent posttraumatic pancreatitis leading to pancreatic pseudocysts is discussed. There are no deaths after isolated pancreatic trauma or surgery of pancreatic pseudocysts.
