Abstract:
We hereby report a case of total traumatic pancreatic transection through the body of pancreas in a 7 years old boy, who sustained a blunt abdominal trauma. The patient was managed nonoperatively and showed a speedy and complete recovery without complication. This is relatively a rare childhood injury which responded dramatically to conservative therapy. Therefore, we feel it worths reporting.
