Abstract
|
|
|
|
The role of surgical management for chronic pancreatitis in providing pain relief and improving quality of life is significant. Surgical techniques involving pancreatic head resection scored more over the drainage procedures. Among the resection procedures, Frey’s procedure received widespread acceptance. However, the exact extent of pancreatic head resection to be performed and the limits of the resection are still debatable. The present report of bile duct preserving pancreatic head resection (BDPPHR) describes an innovative approach to the pancreatic head and conclusively defines the extent of head resection. The simplicity, feasibility and easy reproducibility of the BDPPHR is also reiterated.
