Abstract
Traumatic injuries of the pancreas are rare. Epidemiological studies in a Scandinavian population have reported an incidence of 0.4 cases per 100,000 head of population per year, accounting for 7% of laparotomies performed for abdominal trauma [1]. An earlier study reported the same incidence of pancreatic injuries (7.4%) among trauma laparotomies performed in the Los Angeles urban area [2].
