Abstract:
Despite the rapid development of medical science and technology, the issues
of diagnosis and treatment of destructive forms of acute pancreatitis remain
one of the complex problems of modern urgent surgery. The frequency of
this disease increases from year to year, and in the structure of abdominal
urgent surgery, this pathology occupies a leading place, and in terms of
growth rates, it is ahead of all other emergency abdominal diseases. It should
be noted that along with the increase in the absolute number of patients,
there is an even greater tendency to the growth of destructive forms. In
Uzbekistan, according to the Institute of Health and Medical Statistics, more
than 600 operations for pancreatic necrosis are performed annually in the
country. At the same time, postoperative mortality in some regions reaches
28.6-30.8%.
