Summary: Introduction: Surgical options for patients of chronic pancreatitis with refractory pain include drainage and or resectional procedures. Lateral pancreatojejunostomy (LPJ), the commonly performed drainage operation has traditionally been done as an open procedure. This video demonstrates the technique of Laparoscopic lateral pancreaticojejunostomy. Methods: During the study period 39 laparoscopic lateral pancreaticojejunostomies for patients of chronic pancreatitis with refractory pain were performed. The procedure involved opening of the gastrocolic ligament to expose the pancreas. The duct was identified either by needle localization, or opening directly over a calculus/pseudocyst. The duct was completely opened in the entire pancreas and all the ductal calculi were removed. In patients with a head mass, a limited head coring was also performed. A roux limb of the jejunum was fashioned and a side-side pancreaticojejunostomy was done using either a continuous or an open suture technique. A side-side jejunojejunal anastomosis was then performed, A drain was placed in the vicinity of the pancreaticojejunostomy and the ports were closed. Postoperatively, patients were managed in surgical intensive care and after discharge followed up at 2 weeks, 1, 3 and 6 months. Satisfactory pain relief was seen in 91% patients. Conclusion: Laparoscopic LPJ is feasible and safe and offers good pain control with the added benefits of laparoscopic approach. This is perhaps the largest reported experience of laparoscopic lateral pancreaticojejunostomy till date.
