Results In group A the incidence of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, infection rate and mortality were 56.8 % , 39.6 % , 43.1 % and 56.9 % , respectively; in group B, the data were 37. 8 % , 20. 3 % , 14.8 % , 85.2 % , and respectively, with a significant difference ( P 0.05) .Conclusions Non-operative treatment can cure the majority of the patients with SAP. The comprehensive treatment must be adopted according to the clinical characteristics of individual patient.
