The endoscopic methods including retrograde pancreaticocholangiography were used for examining 78 patients, 14 of them were subjected to resection of the pancreas and 14 to pancreatojejunostomy. Gastroduodenitis was diagnosed in all the patients after resection of the pancreas, in 3 patients repeated surgical interventions (pancreatojejunostomy) were necessary. The examination of patients with pancreatojejunal anastomos has shown that scarring is more frequently found in terminolateral anastomoses while longitudinal pancreatojejunostomy is followed by good patency of the anastomosis.
