Journal ArticleDOI
Extended drainage versus resection in surgery for chronic pancreatitis: a prospective randomized trial comparing the longitudinal pancreaticojejunostomy combined with local pancreatic head excision with the pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy.
J. R. Izbicki,Christian Bloechle,Dieter C. Broering,Wolfram T. Knoefel,T Kuechler,Christoph E. Broelsch +5 more
TL;DR: Both procedures are equally effective in terms of pain relief and definitive control of complications affecting adjacent organs, but extended drainage by LPJ-LPHE provides a better quality of life.
Journal ArticleDOI
Duodenum-preserving resection of the head of the pancreas in chronic pancreatitis. A prospective, randomized trial.
J. R. Izbicki,Christian Bloechle,Wolfram T. Knoefel,T Kuechler,K. F. Binmoeller,Christoph E. Broelsch +5 more
TL;DR: Both techniques of duodenum-preserving resection of the head of the pancreas are equally safe and effective with regard to pain relief, improvement of quality of life, and definitive control of complications affecting adjacent organs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term Follow-up of a Randomized Trial Comparing the Beger and Frey Procedures for Patients Suffering From Chronic Pancreatitis
Tim Strate,Zohre Taherpour,Christian Bloechle,Oliver Mann,Jens P. Bruhn,Claus Schneider,T Kuechler,Emre F. Yekebas,Jakob R. Izbicki +8 more
TL;DR: After almost 9 years’ long-term follow-up, there was no difference regarding mortality, quality of life, pain, or exocrine or endocrine insufficiency within the 2 groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Longitudinal V-shaped excision of the ventral pancreas for small duct disease in severe chronic pancreatitis: prospective evaluation of a new surgical procedure.
TL;DR: In small duct chronic pancreatitis, longitudinal V-shaped excision of the ventral pancreas is a safe and effective alternative to resection procedures and provides pain relief and improvement of quality of life, thus offering the benefit of a resection procedure without its burden.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resection vs Drainage in Treatment of Chronic Pancreatitis: Long-term Results of a Randomized Trial
Tim Strate,Kai Bachmann,Philipp Busch,Oliver Mann,Claus Schneider,Jens P. Bruhn,Emre F. Yekebas,T Kuechler,Christian Bloechle,Jakob R. Izbicki +9 more
TL;DR: Both procedures provide adequate pain relief and quality of life after long-term follow-up with no differences regarding exocrine and endocrine function, however, short-term results favor the organ-sparing procedure.
