Summary. The problem of hemorrhagic complications of destructive pancreatitis is relevant. The aim of the study was to study the frequency and sources of hemorrhagic complications in patients with pancreatic necrosis, to evaluate the tactics of diagnosis and the effectiveness of methods to stop bleeding. Materials and methods. A study of the results of treatment of 40 patients with acute necrotizing pancreatitis was conducted. Results and its discussion. In 67.5 % of patients with acute necrotizing pancreatitis, hemorrhagic complications in the form of arrosive bleeding were observed. A method of endovascular occlusion of vessels using Gianturco spirals or stent grafts to stop arrosive bleeding in acute necrotizing pancreatitis has been introduced in the clinic. In 37.0 % of cases, repeated signs of arrosive bleeding were observed. In acute necrotizing pancreatitis complicated by arrosive bleeding, mortality was 44.4 %. Conclusions. The main cause of hemorrhagic complications in acute necrotic pancreatitis is acute necrotic changes, during infection of which arrosia of adjacent vessels occurs. The predominant tactic in case of bleeding from the retroperitoneal space against the background of minimally invasive treatment is clamping of drains, endovascular hemostasis using Gianturco spirals or stent grafts and the use of hemostatic soluble gauze (hemostop). Mortality in the development of arrosive bleeding in acute necrotic pancreatitis is 44.4 %.

Acute Necrotizing

Emphysematous pancreatitis is a rare and fatal complication of acute necrotizing pancreatitis. We report a radioclinical observation of a 61-year-old female patient who consulted for epigastric pain radiating to the back, associated with vomiting and elevated lipasaemia more than 3 times the normal value. The abdominal computerized tomography (CT) scan carried out on the fourth day of hospitalization, based on worsening of the clinical condition, showed pancreatic necrosis associated with the presence of air bubbles. Percutaneous puncture of a peripancreatic collection was positive for Escherichia coli. A diagnosis of emphysematous pancreatitis was established. The clinical and biological evolution of our patient was favourable with antibiotic treatment.

Fruit Structure

The maturity of tomato fruit is normally characterized by external color and it is often difficult to know when fruit have achieved commercial maturity or become over-mature. The internal structure of tomato fruit change during development and this study investigates the utility of nondestructive measurement of tomato fruit structure as a function of maturity using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The objective of this work is to use analysis of internal tomato fruit structural measurements to characterize maturity. Intact cherry tomato fruit were harvested at six different maturity stages. At each stage of maturity, the internal structure of the fruit was measured using a series of 2D magnetic resonance (MR) images. Qualitative and quantitative image analyses were performed to correlate internal fruit structure with maturity. Internal structural changes observed in the pericarp region of the tomato fruit are highly correlated with fruit maturity. MR image information combined with classical analysis techniques provides a more complete understanding of structure and physicochemical changes in tomato fruit during maturation. This study demonstrates that MRI is a useful analytical tool to characterize internal changes in agricultural produce as the produce matures. This technique can be applied to almost any agricultural produce to monitor internal physical changes due to external impact, maturity stage, variation in climate, storage time and condition or other factor impacting quality.
