So it is difficult to diagnosis in the early stage, easy to missed and misdiagnosis, subsequently prone to infection of pancreatic necrosis (IPN).At present, the treatment of TP is advocated as a step-by-step treatment strategy, which takes minimally invasive surgery as the guidance and takes into account of the principles of multiple injury treatment, inflammation control, infection and necrosis clearance, which runs through the two important links of pancreatic injury and IPN management.
