Purpose of the study. Develop an algorithm for the diagnosis and treatment of purulent-septic complications of severe necrotizing forms of acute pancreatitis. Materials and methods. 5400 patients with acute pancreatitis were treated. To determine the infected pancreatic necrosis, the blood calcium level, and blood procalcitonin were studied, and a fine-needle biopsy was performed. Surgical interventions were performed in 874 (16,2%) patients who underwent 1057 surgical interventions. Results. 782 minimally invasive interventions were performed in 645 patients: video laparoscopic – 608 (77,7%), puncture-draining (under ultrasound control) – 102 (13,0%), endoscopic – 38 (4,9%). The following purulent-septic complications of severe forms of acute pancreatitis were revealed: infected pancreatic necrosis in 189 (17,9%), infected peripancreonecrosis in 167 (15,8%), infected pseudocyst in 109 (12,5%) patients. 173 (19,8%) single-stage operative interventions were performed, 56 (6,4%) open-stage multistage patients were performed, and extended necrsequestrectomy was performed. Among minimally invasive interventions, minilaparotomy and lumbotomy were performed in 34 (4,3%). Conclusion. The use of monitoring laboratory and instrumental methods of research in the diagnosis of severe forms of acute pancreatitis and its complications allows you to determine in time the degree and volume of necrotic lesions of the pancreas and develop surgical tactics. Keywords: acute pancreatitis, pancreatonecrosis,purulent-septic complications.

Patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) often suffer tough complications, some of which are fatal. The early diagnosis and definite treatment of central nervous system (CNS) complications have not been fully achieved yet, which seriously affects the mortality of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). We present a case of infected pancreatic necrosis (IPN) in a 62-year Chinese man who developed acute herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) caused by herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) after favorable minimally invasive retroperitoneal approaches (MIRAs). The patient was successfully treated with 115 days stayed in our hospital. The MIRAs included image-guided retroperitoneal percutaneous catheter drainage (PCD), nephroscopic pancreatic necrosectomy (NPN), and ultrasonic pneumatic lithotripsy system (UPLS) assisted non-narcotic sinus track necrosectomy (NSN). HSE is relatively rare and potentially life threatening. We attempt to discuss the probable risk factors and how the relatively rare HSE are related to the patients of SAP with latent HSV.

Summary. Introduction. The search for objective methods for diagnosing the form and severity of acute pancreatitis, accurate prediction and timely prevention of infectious complications in this surgical pathology is of great practical importance for modern medicine. Materials and methods. According to clinical, morphological and bacteriological data, groups of patients were selected. The first group included 33 patients with sterile pancreatic necrosis (SP), the second group consisted of 29 patients with infected pancreatic necrosis (IP). Results and discussion. The program of differential diagnosis of sterile and infected pancreatic necrosis with calculation of the index of differential diagnosis (IDD) for each clinical-laboratory and instrumental indicator used in this system is developed. The development and evaluation of diagnostic possibilities of the method of verification of purulent-septic complications of acute pancreatitis and the transition of a sterile form of pancreatic necrosis to an infected one was carried out. Conclusions. The use of the developed method of diagnosis of sterile and infected pancreatic necrosis with the calculation of the index of differential diagnosis allowed in 93% of cases to distinguish sterile pancreatic necrosis from infected and timely determine the scope and tactics of treatment.

Relevance. There is a discussion about the prevalence of early or late mortality and the main causes of death in different phases of acute pancreatitis. Analysis of mortality is important for the determination of ways to improve the results of treatment of pancreatic necrosis. Aim of the research is analysis of the structure, timing characteristics and causes of deaths in pancreatic necrosis, the effect of the configuration of parapancreatitis and surgical tactics on the outcome of the disease. Materials and methods. Retrospective single-center study of lethal outcomes in acute pancreatitis was performed, the structure of mortality, cases of discrepancies in diagnoses, the timing of the onset and causes of deaths of patients were studied. The lethal outcomes were compared in the operated patients, the frequency of the mesentery root involvement, the indications and the timing of the interventions were assessed. Results. The ratio of early and late mortality was 45,2% to 54,8%, respectively. The main causes of early mortality – endotoxin shock and multi-organ failure, late one – infectious complications. In 9,6% of the patients, the diagnosis was made only with an autopsy. The prognostic value of the SOFA and SAPS II scales is characterized as low. The tactics of surgical treatment has changed in favour of minimally invasive surgery. The average conversion time for ineffective percutaneous procedures was 21,4 days. The involvement of mesentery in parapancreatitis was often accompanied by a breakthrough of the abscess into the abdominal cavity. Conclusion. The surgical component of the reduction in mortality is the rejection of unreasonable surgical interventions, the earlier conversion to "traditional" operations in case of ineffective minimally invasive treatment and the allocation of "central" localization of parapancreatitis as a serious prognostic factor of the course of severe pancreatitis.

Abstract Background: The determinant-based classification (DBC) of acute pancreatitis (AP) was proposed in 2012. One of the highlights of the DBC was critical acute pancreatitis (CAP), which was supposed to be strongly associated with the highest risk of adverse outcomes. However, the definition of CAP needs to be further clarified.Methods: A prospective cohort with consecutive patients of infected pancreatic necrosis (IPN) at a tertiary hospital was analyzed. Patients were assigned to IPN alone, Metachronous-CAP (MCAP) and Synchronous-CAP group (SCAP) according to presence or absence of organ failure (OF) and the crosstalk between OF and IPN. Clinical interventions and outcomes were compared among groups.Results: A total of 248 IPN patients were enrolled and the overall mortality was 25.8%. Compared with MCAP, patients with SCAP were associated with higher mortality (45/68, 66.2% vs. 5/50, 10.0%; OR= 17.6,95% CI, 6.2-50.4; P < 0.001) and morbidity (28/68, 41.2% vs. 9/50, 18.0%; P = 0.013), longer duration of OF (median 35.5 days vs. 12.0 days, P < 0.001), longer ICU length of stay (LOS) (median 28.0 days vs. 16.0 days, P = 0.001), longer hospital LOS (median 67.0 days vs. 60.0 days, P < 0.001) as well as earlier requirement for surgical interventions. The IPN alone and MCAP had comparable mortality (10.8% vs. 10.0%, P = 0.88), morbidity and hospital LOS, except that MCAP patients were characterized with longer duration of OF and ICU LOS (P< 0.05).Conclusions: SCAP, characterized with synchronous persistent OF and IPN, was associated with higher mortality and morbidity and should be defined as genuine CAP.

Aim. Improving the results of surgical treatment of patients with pancreatic necrosis and its complications based on developing optimal variants of surgical interventions for each case.Methods. The article presents experience of surgical treatment of 344 patients with pancreatic necrosis admitted to surgical clinic №1 of Kazan state medical university in Republican clinical hospital (Kazan) during the period from 2009 to 2015. According to the developed procedure of choosing the optimal treatment options for patients with pancreatic necrosis, depending on the stage, degree of involvement of pancreas and retroperitoneal space and the presence of complications, patients underwent a variety of options and combinations of types of surgical interventions. Under the guidance of X-ray 124 surgeries were performed, in 69 (20.1%) cases surgical interventions under ultrasound (US) guidance were completed with open surgical intervention.Results. Videolaparoscopic interventions with therapeutic and diagnostic purposes were performed in 198 patients with lethal outcomes in 3 (3.1%) cases. As a completed intervention videolaparoscopy was performed in 49 (24.7%) cases. 226 (65.7%) patients underwent open surgery. Most patients required combined surgical treatment, which included a combination of minimally invasive procedures and open surgery in 199 (57.9%) patients.Conclusion. Use of combined methods of surgical treatment in patients with infected pancreatic necrosis greatly improves treatment outcomes; a combination of minimally invasive and open surgery can significantly reduce postoperative mortality in pancreatic necrosis from 17.8% to 12.5%.

Walled-off pancreatic necrosis is defined as a necrotic collection with a defined wall, which generally occurs in 15% of patients in the fourth week after acute pancreatitis. Actually, open surgery is reserved for selected cases, with minimally invasive treatments such as image-assisted percutaneous drainage or endoscopic ultrasound being the procedures of choice. However, in developing countries the open approach continues to be an effective therapeutic alternative. We present the case of a 47-year-old male patient with no significant history who developed severe acute pancreatitis secondary to hypertriglyceridemia and who later developed walled-off pancreatic necrosis as a late complication. As a treatment, a debridement of the necrotic tissue with marsupialization was performed using the bradley III technique, secondary to the procedure, a pancreatic fistula was developed. After 8 weeks of hospitalization, in which he had a favourable response to surgical treatment, with spontaneous closure of the fistula without complications. Surgical management of late complications of acute pancreatitis remains controversial. Although minimally invasive procedures are the first option nowadays, in developing countries, open necrosectomy remains a good option for the treatment of these types of complications.

The review presents a modern view on the features of the course and treatment of acute pancreatitis, based on a cascade of pathophysiological mechanisms of this disease. A number of concepts of development and course of acute pancreatitis on the basis of randomized prospective and retrospective researches devoted to this problem are considered. Attention is paid to the mechanisms of development of organ failure in acute pancreatitis. In accordance with the above, the main positions of treatment measures for acute pancreatitis, which are based on the principles of tactics "step-up approach" were highlighted. Among them, attention is focused on the features of the conservative treatment program, minimally invasive surgical interventions, as well as the management of the postoperative period of patients. Minimally invasive surgical interventions perform the main tasks of surgical treatment in acute pancreatitis, but significantly reduce surgical trauma compared to "open" methods. Adequate management of the postoperative period of patients is carried out through the implementation of protocols "fast-track surgery".

Summary. The aim of the study. To improve the results of surgical treatment of patients with acute pancreatitis using minimal invasive techniques. Matherials and Methods of the study. The results of surgical treatment of 75 patients with different forms of acute pancreatitis were analyzed. All patients were examined and operated on. Results of the study. Minimally invasive interventions were performed in 92 % of the analyzed patients. Intraoperatively acute pancreatic edema was observed in 43 % of patients, hemorrhagic pancreatic necrosis – in 24 %, infected pancreatic necrosis – in 33 %. The postoperative period was complicated by 13.3 %, the mortality rate was 9.3 %. Conclusions. The use of minimally invasive techniques for treating acute pancreatitis can significantly improve the results of surgical treatment of patients with this pathology. The frequency of complications and lethality decreases. Also, it is possible to significantly reduce operational trauma, and hence the number of bed-days of stay in hospital treatment. This contributes to reducing the financial cost of treatment in patients with acute pancreatitis, as well as improving the quality of life of this category of patients.

Objective. To describe the management and prognosis of splenic abscess after splenic arterial embolization in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) patients.Methods. This is a retrospective observational study. From August 2012 to August 2017, SAP patients with infected pancreatic necrosis (IPN) who underwent splenic arterial embolization after massive hemorrhage of the splenic artery were screened and those who developed splenic abscess were included for analysis. The demographic characteristics, etiology, treatment of splenic abscess, and clinical outcomes of these cases were collected and analyzed.Results. A total of 18 patients with splenic abscess formed after splenic arterial embolization were included for data analysis. The median age of the 18 patients was 46 years. The etiologies included biliary AP, hypertriglyceridemic AP (HTG-AP), and other causes. Ten patients underwent minimally invasive percutaneous drainage only for splenic abscess while the other eight patients received splenectomy. One patient died due to uncontrolled infection and another patient died due to massive bleeding, and the remaining sixteen patients survived.Conclusion. The incidence of splenic abscess was high in patients requiring splenic arterial embolization due to massive bleeding. Our data showed that most splenic abscess could be successfully managed with minimally invasive interventions, and traditional splenectomy should serve as a backup treatment.
