The mean age during the redo procedure was 21 months. The redo procedures were performed at a mean duration of 15.5 months after the primary pancreatectomy. All patients exhibited the histologically diffuse type. The mean follow-up was 7 years. All cases were managed successfully after the redo procedures. Six patients were on medical treatment, 4 developed diabetes mellitus, and 1 became euglycemic).
