Semin Ultrasound CT MR. 2018 Aug;39(4):355-362. doi: 10.1053/j.sult.2018.03.004. Epub 2018 Mar 23.

Abstract

Pancreaticobiliary injury is an uncommon entity which more often occurs in the setting of blunt than penetrating trauma. We present cases of pancreaticobiliary traumatic injuries from our Level 1 trauma center to illustrate an imaging update on the spectrum of injuries and correlation with current grading systems.
