This is probably caused by insufficient drainage of the pancreatic duct. We report the results of our follow\u2010up of patients who underwent surgery for symptomatic pancreas divisum according to an individualized surgical approach.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Between October 2001 and April 2009, 28 patients with symptomatic pancreas divisum were operated at the University Hospital of Heidelberg. According to the localization and type of morphological changes of the pancreas, patients received a reinsertion of the papilla (SP; <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 11), duodenum\u2010preserving pancreatic head resection (DPPHR; <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 10), pylorus\u2010preserving Whipple (ppWhipple; <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 4), or other pancreatic resections (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 3). Hospitalization, morbidity, mortality, pain course, and patient satisfaction were analyzed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Before surgery, patients received a median of three endoscopic interventions and were hospitalized for 77\u00a0days. The median postoperative follow\u2010up was 4.1 years. Surgical morbidity was 11% and mortality 0%. We performed an SP when the pancreas was soft (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 10). When the pancreas was inflammatory altered, a DPPHR was performed in ten, ppW in four, segmental resection in two, and SP and pancreatic left resection in one case. A redo operation for persisting symptoms was needed in six patients (3 soft and 3 altered pancreas). Compared with the preoperative situation, pain was significantly reduced in the follow\u2010up (median Visual Analogue Scale 0 vs. 10). Ninety\u2010six percent of patients were without symptoms during the follow\u2010up.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>The individualized surgical approach for patients with symptomatic PD achieves significant reduction of pain in all patients. Reinsertions of the papilla should be performed as a first surgical intervention in patients with a soft pancreas when symptoms persist despite adequate endoscopic treatment. DPPHR should be performed when fibrotic alterations of the pancreas are present.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00268-011-1076-9","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,4,7]],"date-time":"2011-04-07T10:23:58Z","timestamp":1302171838000},"page":"1360-1366","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Pancreas Divisum: A Differentiated Surgical Approach in Symptomatic Patients"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"35","author":[{"given":"Lutz","family":"Schneider","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery University of Heidelberg Heidelberg Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elias","family":"M\u00fcller","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery University of Heidelberg Heidelberg Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ulf","family":"Hinz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery University of Heidelberg Heidelberg Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lars","family":"Grenacher","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology University of Heidelberg Heidelberg Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Markus W.","family":"B\u00fcchler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery University of Heidelberg Heidelberg Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jens","family":"Werner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery University of Heidelberg Heidelberg Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,4,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_2","first-page":"125","article-title":"Proposed nomenclature and classification of the human pancreatic ducts and duodenal papillae.
