The case of a 35-year-old male with portal vein erosion and acute life-threatening abdominal hemorrhage as a complication of acute pancreatitis is reported. Erosion of arterial walls is the most common complication of pancreatitis and pancreatic pseudocysts, and erosion of the portal vein leading to a fistula between the pancreas and the portal vein is very rare. Diagnosis was made by multislice spiral computed tomography, and nonsurgical treatment was elected, leading to complete recoverage.

Ziel der Studie war es, eine Methode zur minimal-invasiven Reposition und Aufrichtung frakturierter Wirbelkörper zu entwickeln.
