Has the Partington procedure for chronic pancreatitis become a thing of the past? A review of the evidence
Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery, 09/29/09
Isaji S – For patients with a dilated main pancreatic duct but without an inflammatory pancreatic head mass, the Partington procedure is still the procedure of choice, since it is technically simple to perform with a minimum of morbidity and mortality, preserving pancreatic endocrine and exocrine function. Because it is a relatively simple technique, the laparoscopic approach will be justified as a treatment of appropriate patients in the near future.
