A pancreatic injury is some form of trauma sustained by the pancreas. The injury can be sustained through either blunt forces, such as a motor vehicle accident, or penetrative forces, such as that of a gunshot wound.[1] The pancreas is one of the least commonly injured organs in abdominal trauma.[2]
