Summary
This study reviews medical records of 450 children who had surgery for a blocked duodenum (duodenal atresia) over the past 20 years. Researchers want to find out how often bile duct and pancreas problems occur after surgery, and what might cause them. The goal is to better understand these rare complications and improve long-term care.
