Consolidation of a friable pancreas for pancreaticojejunal anastomosis.
نویسنده
چکیده
Management of the pancreatic remnant following pancreaticojejunostomy remains a technical challenge particularly when the pancreas is soft. A simple technique that consolidates the pancreas in preparation for pancreaticojejunostomy is described. Application of this technique in patients for whom a difficult anastomosis was anticipated has yielded good results.

متن کاملA novel technique for reducing pancreatic fistulas after pancreaticojejunostomy
Risk factors for anastomotic leaks of pancreaticojejunostomy have been well described. We present a technique using indocyanine green dye (ICG) and a near-infrared (NIR) capable laparoscope to assess blood supply to the transected margin of the pancreas before pancreaticojejunal anastomosis. A 39-year-old female patient underwent a laparoscopic-assisted pancreaticoduodenectomy (Whipple's proced...
متن کاملComputed tomography enterography as a tool for identifying pancreaticojejunal anastomoses in patients who have undergone Whipple's resection.
During the endoscopic treatment of stenotic pancreaticojejunal anastomoses in patients who have undergone Whipple’s resection, it can be difficult to identify the pancreaticojejunal anastomotic site [1,2]. To solve this problem, we used computed tomography (CT) enterography to obtain detailed information about the pancreaticojejunal anastomotic site. We report a case in which a stenotic pancrea...
متن کاملPancreaticoduodenectomy with external drainage of the pancreatic remnant.
OBJECTIVE Leakage of the pancreaticojejunal anastomosis is a serious complication after pancreaticoduodenectomy. External drainage of the pancreatic remnant is one of several methods for reducing pancreaticojejunal anastomotic leakage or fistula. We investigated complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy with and without external drainage of the pancreatic remnant. METHODS Patients who under...

CONTEXT Pancreaticoduodenectomy is the gold standard for patients with resectable periampullary carcinoma. The protection of the anastomosis by positioning of an intraluminal stent is a technique used to lower the frequency of anastomotic fistulas. However the use of anastomotic stents is still debated and stent related complications are reported. CASE REPORT A fifty-three-year old male under...
