Objective  To summarize the risk factors, diagnosis, and treatment experience of intra-abdominal bleeding following surgeries for severe acute pancreatitis. Methods  A retrospective review was conducted of 347 patients underwent necrosectomy for severe acute pancreatitis between January 2011 and December 2015 at West China Hospital of Sichuan University. Results  Of the 347 patients, thirty-eight patients had intra-abdominal bleeding after surgeries, including 5 patients who had twice bleeding. The bleeding positions including splenic vein (n=7), splenic artery (n=2), pancreatic and peripancreatic vessels (n=8), colonic mesangial vessels (n=6), other vessels (n=12), and extensive osmotic bleeding in abdominal cavity (n=7). Hemostatic modes: suture (n=20), compression hemostasis (n=18), transcatheteranerial embolism (n=2), suture and compression hemostasis (n=4), and conservative treatment (n=1). There were 19 dead patients of 38 bleeding patients. There were statistically significant differences between the hemorrhage group and the non-hemorrhage group on gender, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHEⅡ) scores and modified Marshall scores at admission, interval onset to surgery, surgical approaches, and morbidity (P<0.05). Compared with the non-hemorrhage group, there were more males, higher APACHE Ⅱ scores and modified Marshall scores, longer interval onset to surgery, and higher mortality in the hemorrhage group. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that male patients had higher risk of intra-abdominal bleeding (OR=3.980, P=0.004), as the grow of APACHEⅡ scores, the risk of intra-abdominal bleeding increased (OR=1.487, P<0.001). Conclusions  We should pay more attention on the male SAP patients as well as patients with multiple organ dysfunction.
