Abstract:
Laparoscopic pancreatic surgery has been discussed but remains relatively limited to resection for benign disease. Laparoscopic intervention for pancreatic trauma has been documented briefly, and the authors now report a case of traumatic pancreatic transection managed by laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy.
