“…However, there are some trauma patients in whom diagnosis of pancreatic injury is delayed, especially when patients are stable, have no indications for emergency laparotomy and CT scans are equivocal [11]. In a small prospective study, Barkin et al [12] found ERCP to be both sensitive and specific in all their patients. The major advantage of prompt endoscopy of the pancreatobiliary system is the precise determination of the degree of injury.…”
