Transduodenal accessory papillary Rendezvous technique assisted ERCP in the treatment of severe pancreatic duct stenosis caused by chronic pancreatitis in children.

ABSTRACT

Chronic pancreatitis in children is an irreversible inflammatory disease, which can cause intractable abdominal pain and abnormal internal and external secretion function of the pancreas, seriously affecting the growth and development of children and the quality of life. ERCP has become the first choice because of its good effect and less trauma. However, the severe stenosis of pancreatic duct caused by chronic pancreatitis may make ERCP more difficult. Here we used the rendezvous technique to assist ERCP to complete the treatment of severe pancreatic duct stenosis and abdominal pain.
