Spontaneous gas gangrene of the pancreas: extremely rare condition
Résumé
Abstract Acute pancreatitis is a common condition, only occasionally leading to necrosis of the pancreas. In instances where abscess formation takes place, the predominant microbial profile involves both aerobic and anaerobic enteric species. We present the case of a patient with clostridial emphysematous pancreatitis who developed pneumoperitoneum without associated visceral perforation.
