English: Above is a diagram that depicts Transected Pancreatic Tail Syndrome. Transected Pancreatic Tail Syndrome ( TPTS ) is a rare medical condition where there is a lack of a ductal connection between the upper portion of the pancreatic tissue, and the lower portion of tissue. 1- The tail is disconnected from the upper portion of the pancreas. This breaks the duct between the two portions, causing pancreatic enzymes to secrete into the bowel. 2- The head of the pancreas would be considered upper stream pancreatic tissue that remains less vulnerable to damage than the tail. 3- The pancreatic duct when in a healthy pancreas connects the entire pancreas. However in this transected pancreas, the duct is disrupted and unable to function. 4- The cut or transected area that shows a disconnection in the pancreas. An injury of this nature commonly requires invasive surgery to treat
