Pancreatic Trauma

Pancreatic trauma refers to injury to the pancreas, a vital organ that helps with digestion and blood sugar regulation. This type of injury can occur from blunt force, such as a car accident, or penetration by sharp objects. Symptoms may include severe abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Complications can arise, such as infections or damage to nearby organs. Diagnosis typically involves imaging tests, and treatment may require surgery or monitoring in severe cases. Prompt medical attention is crucial to prevent serious complications and ensure proper healing.
