    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology and Hepatology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Surgical Sciences

    Background:

    • Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) presents diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.
    • Accurate assessment of SAP severity is crucial for effective management.
    • Existing prognostic tools have limitations in guiding treatment strategies.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze the efficacy of a comprehensive diagnostic algorithm for severe acute pancreatitis.
    • To evaluate the algorithm's impact on treatment policy and patient outcomes.
    • To determine the added value of specific scoring systems in SAP prognosis.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of a diagnostic algorithm integrating ultrasonic examination, esophagogastroduodenoscopy, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance pancreatocholangiography (MRCP), and retrograde pancreatocholangiography (RPC).

  • Inclusion of 164 patients diagnosed with severe acute pancreatitis.
  • Utilized Balthazar's score system, CT Severity Index (CTSI), Ranson criteria, and Apache II scales for prognostic accuracy assessment.

    • Main Results:

    • The diagnostic algorithm demonstrated high effectiveness in managing severe acute pancreatitis.
    • Implementation of the algorithm led to optimized treatment policies.
    • Significant improvements observed in treatment results and a reduction in lethality rates.
    • The combination of Balthazar's score (CTSI) with Ranson and Apache II scales enhanced disease prognosis accuracy.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed diagnostic algorithm is highly effective for severe acute pancreatitis.
    • This algorithm facilitates optimal treatment strategies, leading to improved patient outcomes and reduced mortality.
    • Integrating established scoring systems with advanced imaging improves the accuracy of prognostic assessment in SAP.
