abstract ={Few studies have examined the postoperative long-term complications after partial pancreatoduodenectomy
and there are mainly focused in the presence of biliary strictures. The occurrence of intra-pancreatic lithiasis
secondary to the presence of late stenosis of the duct-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy is an extremely
rare condition. We observed that the late occurrence of a pancreaticojejunostomy stricture could be a
potential cause for acute pancreatitis in long-term survivors following partial pancreatoduodenectomy. The
importance of this report is to emphasize that the strategy of a redo of this difficult anastomosis is a very
challenging abdominal operation but provides excellent early and long-term results}
