Differential Diagnosis

Diagnosis

  • Made based on the presence of two of the following three criteria:
    • Compatible history
    • Elevated lipase or amylase
    • Characteristic findings on imaging

Management

Pancreatic Necrosis

  • Two forms
    • Acute necrotizing pancreatitis, which is present at the start, and is usually phlegmonous
    • Walled-off necrosis, which develops over the course of illness, and is usually an organized collection
  • Both are sterile and both can become infected
  • No antibiotics warranted in acute necrotizing pancreatitis
  • Infection usually develops after about 10 days
  • If necrosectomy is indicated, it should be delayed by at least 4 weeks

Splenic Vein Thrombosis

  • Monitor
