Abstract
Acute necrotizing pancreatitis still poses a central problem for general surgery, mainly when infected pancreatic necroses have to be treated. In spite of all the progress — especially in intensive care medicine — and despite better findings in the field of pathogenesis, mortality is still up to 50% in literature reports. Only a few centers can report a mortality rate below 20% [2–4, 7, 8].
