Abstract： This paper summarized the nursing measures for four patients with acute pancreatitis after lower extremity endovascular intervention, and provided a reference for the postoperative nursing of vascular intervention surgery. Key issues of nursing included psychological care, preoperative hydration, guidance of dietary, observation of illness condition, prevention of complications, nutrition support and medication care. There are two severe cases of acute pancreatitis, one of which eventually died due to multiple organ failure, and the other was cured after drug treatment. In addition, two mild cases of acute pancreatitis, which were cured after drug treatment. As rare angiographic complication, acute pancreatitis is not easy to be detected early. The possibility of acute pancreatitis must be considered when a patient presents with abdominal pain, elevated creatinine, or multiple organ failure following an interventional procedure. Early detection and diagnosis, and timely treatment are beneficial to improve the cure rate of postoperative complications.
