title: [Early and late evaluation of Jurasz's operation].
abstract: In the years 1971-1996, 102 patients were treated for pancreatic pseudocysts. In 42 cases pancreatocystogastrostomy modo Jurasz was done. 12 patients operated on in the years 1971-83 were included in group I--retrospective trial, other 30 patients treated in the years 1984-96 were included to group II (prospective trial). Postoperative course was uneventful in 38 patients, remaining 4 (9%) had the following complications: bleeding from gastric mucosa 2x, or from the cysts 1 x, mechanical ileus 1x. Hospital mortality was 7% (3 patients). The cause of the death was: sepsis, pulmonary oedema, cardiac arrest. Pancreatic enzymes monitoring in the postoperative period and controlled USG and endoscopic tests (group II) indicate that emptying of the cysts takes place mainly during first 3-4 days and it's closure is completed within two weeks. The follow up period is 1 month to 13 years (mean 5 years). Recurrence of the cyst was noted only in 1 patient 2%.
