Summary

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the long-term effects of ERCP and surgery in pediatric patients with pancreatic duct stones. The main objective is to determine the optimal treatment choice(ERCP or surgery) for children with pancreatic duct stones and identify the appropriate timing for surgery in patients who have undergone multiple ERCP procedures, in order to avoid adverse outcomes caused by repeated trauma to the duodenal papilla.

Conditions

• Pancreatic Duct Stenting
• ERCP
• Surgery in Early Childhood
• Pediatric Surgery

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	ERCP	There are two intervention methods for pediatric pancreatic duct stones. One is to remove the pancreatic duct stones through Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography(ERCP), while simultaneously dilating the pancreatic duct and placing a stent to assist in the normal drainage of pancreatic juice. The other is local resection of the pancreatic head combined with longitudinal pancreaticojejunostomy (Frey surgery).
