Chronic Pancreatitis Surgery

Chronic pancreatitis surgery involves surgical procedures aimed at treating ongoing inflammation of the pancreas. This condition can cause severe abdominal pain, digestive issues, and complications like diabetes. Surgical options may include removing damaged parts of the pancreas, draining fluid collections, or relieving blockages. The goal of surgery is to reduce pain, improve digestion, and manage complications, especially when other treatments, like medication or lifestyle changes, are ineffective. Recovery involves monitoring the patient’s nutrition and managing any long-term effects on pancreatic function.
