Abstract

Improvements brought by bladder drainage in early postoperative mortality came at the price of late morbidity. Urinary leaks related to duodenal stump, although not very frequent, are still a matter of discussion on the best treatment. Many surgeons support enteric conversion as the best choice. Here, we report two cases of late duodenal leaks successfully managed without enteric conversion.
