Abstract:
The late results of 18 splanchnectomies-principally in chronic pancreatitis-are reported. One patient died during the clinical follow-up treatment. Four patients died later. In the 13 survivors, the observations extended over 5 to 10 years with an average of 7 years after the operation. 11 of them are free from pain.
