ABSTRACT
CONTEXT Pancreatic injuries caused by blunt trauma are often treated conservatively, except for the highest grades of these. CASE REPORT We report a case of complete transection of the distal pancreas in a young adult which was successfully managed by spleen-preserving laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy followed by an islet autotransplantation in the patient's forearm striated muscle. CONCLUSION:
We describe a mini-invasive approach for pancreatectomy with restoration of resected islets to the patient.
