The role of parapancreatitis in the intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) progression in patients with severe acute pancreatitis with various forms of organs failure was studied. It was analyzed the treatment results of 63 patients with severe acute pancreatitis. The patients were divided into 4 groups: the first group (n=24) had not the signs of organs failure, the second group (n=15) - with symptoms of acute respiratory failure (ARF), the third group (n=11) - with a combination of ARF and acute cardiovascular failure (CVF) and the fourth group (n=13) - with a combination of ARF, CVF and acute renal failure. ⋯ All died patients had a common parapancreatitis. The authors consider that the indications of IAP and APACHE II let to suppose an adverse outcome by the development of multiple organ failure in the early stages of the disease. Common parapancreatitis is the main feature of the persistent IAH (IAP increase during 5-7 days), which is an indication for early decompression operations on the abdominal wall.
