Complications after surgery for duodenal blockage
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial looks at bile duct and pancreas problems after surgery for a birth defect called duodenal atresia. If you had surgery for this condition as a child, your information may help doctors understand long-term outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had surgery for duodenal atresia (a blockage in the first part of the small intestine) in the past 20 years.
- The surgery was done at one of the pediatric surgery centers taking part in this study.
- You were younger than 16 years old when you had the surgery.

This trial studies whether draining bile before surgery can help people with a bile-duct blockage caused by certain cancers. It aims to improve the situation before tumor removal by reducing the effects of a blocked, backed-up bile system.
This trial compares two ways to bypass a blockage in your stomach caused by cancer near the pancreas or duodenum. Both approaches create a new connection so food can pass through, but one uses a camera-guided tube (endoscopic) and the other is surgical. The study will see which works better for your symptoms and quality of life.
This study looks at newborns who had signs of a possible intestinal blockage on a prenatal ultrasound. It aims to understand how before-birth findings relate to outcomes after delivery.
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.
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 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.
