Laparoscopic longitudinal pancreatojejunostomy and modified Frey's operation for chronic calcific pancreatitis: Laparoscopic surgery for chronic calcific pancreatitis

Surgery offers better long‐term pain relief than other interventions, but there is still uncertainty about the optimal surgical procedure and approach and a lack of long‐term follow‐up data in patients with chronic calcific pancreatitis selected for laparoscopic surgical treatment.
