Surgical Decision Making in Pancreatic and Duodenal Trauma

Abstract

median diameter of the main pancreatic duct was 7 (4-10) mm and 8 (4-10) mm (p 0.16), respectively. Results: All operations in I group were performed laparoscopic. The operating time was 375 (320-501) minutes in I group and 240 (179-280) minutes in II group (p 0,08). Blood loss was 70 (30-200) and 100 (50-450) ml (p 0.5), respectively. The postoperative stay period was 4 (4-8) days in I group and 7 (5-14) days in II group (p 0.45). There was 1 (11.15%) complications in II group. The follow-up was 4 (3-8) months in I group and 4 (3-7) months in II group. Pain relief was complete in all groups. Conclusions: A prospective randomized trial demonstrates advantages of laparoscopic Frey procedure.
