| Abstract |
The Frey procedure is an effective surgery for chronic pancreatitis (CP) patients who have pancreatic head lesions with dilation of the main pancreatic duct. However, pancreatic tail lesions can cause relapsing pancreatitis after the procedure. Therefore, additional distal pancreatectomy (DP) might complement the therapeutic effect of the Frey procedure in controlling inflammation of the pancreatic tail. The Frey procedure with DP (Frey + DP) is indicated for inflammatory lesions in the pancreatic head and tail. In this study, we assessed the usefulness of Frey + DP using the retrospective clinical data of our cases. The clinical outcomes were compared between CP patients who underwent the Frey procedure (N = 44) and Frey + DP (N = 13) from January 2005 to April 2016. Frey + DP showed similarly good therapeutic effects to the Frey procedure with regard to the postoperative stay, morbidity, mortality, pain relief and nutrition, although the Frey + DP had a longer operative time, more bleeding and higher incidence of diabetes mellitus than the Frey procedure because of the additional DP. One patient in the Frey group received additional DP because of recurrent pain due to the tail lesion. Frey + DP can be a promising treatment for CP patients with pancreatic head and tail lesions. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 01 October 2018.
All research outputs
#17,991,384
of 23,105,443 outputs
Outputs from Surgery Today
#526
of 995 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#244,129
of 341,556 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Surgery Today
#4
of 7 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,105,443 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 995 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.2. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 341,556 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 23rd percentile – i.e., 23% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 7 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 3 of them.
