Guest guest Posted September 11, 2002 Report Share Posted September 11, 2002 In gallstone Pancreatitis, a laparoscopy does not guarantee that you will not have another attack. It is possible that a stone may already be in the Duct of Odi and continue to the Pancreas. This happened to a friend of mine. When I got Pancreatitis, it was just a few monts following a jpouch operation that left a ton of scar tissue from the top of my belly to my groin. Because of that, I had to have the traditional surgery and receive another impressive scar. The good news is that I have had no problems with my Pancreatitis since although it isn't normal yet and may never be so. Just another point of view. -stan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
