[Method for retroperitoneal drainage in destructive pancreatitis]

The authors developed a method for drainage of the retroperitoneal space in acute destructive pancreatitis, which includes retroperitoneal advancement of tubes to the pancreatic bed. To limit the spreading of the pyonecrotic process by creating an effective withdrawal of the exudate, the drains are introduced on both sides through the space between Toldt's fascia and the colon, and additional drains are also introduced into the paracolonic space limited by Toldt's and prerenal fascias.
