Bile duct and pancreas problems after surgery for blocked duodenum
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at medical records from the past 20 years to understand long-term problems with the bile ducts or pancreas that may come after surgery for a birth defect that blocks the duodenum. If you or your child had this surgery as a baby or young child, your data may help doctors learn how to prevent these issues.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study follows children who have had bile duct (biliary tract) surgery to understand how their bodies change and adapt afterward. Researchers compare them with healthy children to learn what is normal and help improve care.
This is a research study using information from people who had certain liver, bile duct, and pancreas surgeries in the hospital’s surgical team. It aims to review surgical results and may help improve how these operations are done.
This study looks back at how children with stones in their pancreas were treated and how they did. It may help doctors understand better ways to care for kids with this condition.
This study looks at patients who have surgery to remove part of the pancreas (pancreaticoduodenectomy) to understand and possibly prevent a common complication called pancreatic fistula (a leak of digestive fluid). It may help improve recovery after this major surgery.
This study maps how biliary atresia (a childhood blockage/problem with bile flow from the liver) progresses and changes in the body around the time of a liver transplant. It may help doctors better understand the disease and improve future care.
This study looks at blood markers in newborns after major stomach or intestine surgery. It aims to understand recovery and could help improve care for babies with similar conditions.
