In 11 cases of recurrent cholangitis or (and) pancreatitis resulting from periampullary diverticula juxta-ampullary diverticula was observed in 9, intra-ampullary diverticulum in 1, and ampullocele in 1. All patients underwent elective operation including combined diverticulo-sphincteroplasty (7 cases), diverticulectomy with sphincteroplasty (2), diverticulectomy (1), and papilloplasty (1).
Result:
The perioperative and long-term results were excellent. There were no recurrence and morbidity.
Conclusion:
The combined diverticulo-sphincteroplasty is simpl, safe, effective for the treatment of juxta-ampullary diverticula.
