Three patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) developed into overt abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) and confirmed or suspected infection of necrotic tissue. We successfully treated these patients by minimally invasive decompression with the assist of laparoscope after the failures of intensive care treatments. This technique we report here may be another safe and effective management for ACS in SAP.
