Pancreaticojejunostomy For Severe Symptomatic Chronic Pancreatitis

The role of operation, particularly pancreaticojejunostomy, in the treatment of abdominal pain from chronic pancreatitis is controversial, but relief of pancreatic duct obstruction may decrease the rate of pancreatic organ failure. Our results over 6 years in 13 carefully selected patients suggest t...

Pain was the indication for operation in all patients.
