Abstract
A case of prevertebral pancreatic transection demonstrated by pre-operative computed

case suggests that CT scanning should be considered among the first-line modalities
in the evaluation of suspected pancreatic injuries. In addition, the value of other
diagnostic modalities in the evaluation of this disorder is reviewed.
