  • Title: [Annular pancreas in children].
    Author: Soroka AA, Bairov AG.
    Journal: Vestn Khir Im I I Grek; 1976 Aug; 117(8):68-73. PubMed ID: 997119.
    Abstract:
    In the paper, the results of examination and treatment of 19 patients with a ring-shape pancreas are presented. In children an annular pancreas is manifested in acute or recurrent high intestinal obstruction. The method of treatment consists in by-pass anastomosis constructed between the duodenum and jejunum or duodenoduodenostomy. Dissection of the ring seems to be not permissible in children. 10 children died postoperatively. The high mortality rate is conditioned by premature delivery, associated defects of development and delivery trauma.
