Frey procedure for chronic pancreatitis in a child with duodenal atresia and complex pancreaticobiliary disorders.
European Journal of Pediatric Surgery 2010 January
A boy aged 2 years and 7 months who had undergone duodeno-duodenostomy for duodenal atresia and annular pancreas in the neonatal period presented with recurrent pancreatitis. ERCP showed an incomplete pancreas divisum associated with pancreaticobiliary maljunction. At 3 years and 8 months of age, we performed a Frey procedure in combination with total excision of the extrahepatic bile duct. The main pancreatic duct was opened in the body and the head was cored out anteriorly. The pancreaticobiliary system was reconstructed with a Roux-en-Y anastomosis. The patient has been free from symptoms with excellent weight gain in the follow-up period of 20 months. The Frey procedure can be a safe and effective operation in children with chronic pancreatitis caused by complex pancreatobiliary disorders associated with duodenal atresia.
