Overview

Diagnostic Findings

CT

  • Direct signs of pancreatic injury include pancreatic laceration, transection, and comminution.
  • Fluid collections, such as hematomas, pseudocysts, and abscesses, are often seen communicating with the pancreas at the site of fracture or transection.
  • Focal enlargement of the pancreas and peripancreatic fluid are suggestive of pancreatic injury.
  • Peripancreatic fat stranding, hemorrhage, and fluid between the splenic vein and pancreas are useful secondary signs.
