I am going to be having the Open Transduodenal Sphincteroplasty very soon. I see the surgeon, Dr. Sellers tomorrow. My main question is what is the average length of stay,(barring complications) in the hospital. Also do most people get pancreatitis with this? I have suffered for 3 years and we have just found the problem. I have not had pancreatitis so far. I had a Nissen Fundoplication last February. I had reflux so bad I was hospitalized 4 times with aspiration pneumonia. Had a Hiatal Hernia repair at the same time. I did great with that surgery and have not had one symptom of reflux nor Gerd sin the majorce! Hopefully, this next surgery will be just as successful! I am taking a list of questions with me but I thought you may be able to help me ask the major questions! Thank you!
