Krónikus pancreatitis miatt végzett pancreasfej-resectiós műtéteink elemzése.

Introduction: In case of chronic pancreatitis with inflammatory enlargement of the pancreatic head, several operations exist for the treatment, such as the Beger-, Frey-, Whipple-procedures and the Berne modification. A comparison of the results of these procedures is presented in this study. In addition to this, innovations in pancreatojejunal and biliodigestive anastomosis are also described.

Material and methods: 231 pancreatic head resections were carried out between 1991 and 2021. The data were retrospectively evaluated. Late results were also examined using questionnaires.

Results: The Berne modification and the Frey-procedure were more advantageous, than the Whipple- and the Beger-operation in terms of operating time, need for transfusion (P < 0,001), while regarding, the postoperative intensive care unit and total hospital stay both procedures were more favourable, than the Whipple one (P < 0,001). The early morbidity rate was the highest after the Whipple-procedure (P = 0,004). These differences were statistically significant. The reoperation and mortality rates were comparable between the groups. The quality of life of the patients was acceptable, nevertheless in the majority of the cases the alcohol and nicotine abuse was not stopped.

Conclusion: The Frey-operation and the Berne modification were the most advantageous, regarding the early postoperative outcomes. However the latter one is preferable, due to its simplicity. During these procedures a single layer continuous suture technique was used for the pancreatojejunal anastomosis, and an extrapancreatic biliodigestive anastomosis is recommended for the solution of cholestasis. due to the superior results.
