Whipple's pancreaticoduodenectomy has been refined over the years to be a safe operation though the morbidity rate still remains high (30-50%). Pancreatic fistula is the most important cause of mortality following pancreaticoduodenectomy. To prevent it, surgeons have used two anastomotic techniques: pancreaticojejunostomy and pancreaticogastrostomy. Recent studies found that pancreaticogastrost...
Situs inversus totalis (SIT) denotes complete right-left inversion of the thoracic and abdominal viscera. Diagnosis and surgical procedures for abdominal pathology in patients with SIT are technically more complicated because of mirror-image transposition of the visceral organs. Moreover, SIT is commonly associated with cardiovascular and hepatobiliary malformations, which make hepatobiliary-pa...
An association of pancreatic cancer and median arcuate ligament syndrome (MALS) is a rare and challenging situation in terms of treatment. A 60-year-old man diagnosed with pancreatic cancer underwent laparotomy. A pancreaticoduodenectomy was planned, but during the resection part of the operation, a celiac artery stenosis was noticed. The patient was diagnosed with MALS causing almost total cel...
Pancreatic malformations usually represent a surgical challenge, however, depending on the anatomical location even complex procedures such as pancreatic head resection may be facilitated. In a 78-year-old-woman the unique observation of a missing pancreatic isthmus was made during pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Resection of the pancreatic head ...
Introduction Annular pancreas is a rare congenital abnormality characterized by a ring of pancreatic tissue surrounding the descending portion of the duodenum. Annular pancreas coexisting with replaced common hepatic artery which is also a rare anatomical variation has not been reported previously. Case Presentation A 53-year-old man visited our hospital complaining of epigastric pain. Based ...
CONTEXT Ectopic pancreatic rest is an uncommon condition resulting in diverse clinical and pathological presentation. It results from altered development of two primitive pancreatic buds that fuse to form the uncinate-head and body-tail of normal gland. Ectopic pancreas is an anomaly where an ectopic rest develops at a place away from the normal site. CASE REPORT We describe a 48-year-old mal...
A 74-year-old female was diagnosed as having a carcinoma of the papilla of Vater. Preoperative computed tomography showed stenosis of the celiac trunk and an enlarged artery arising from the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) joining the root of the splenic artery. Since this artery communicated with the SMA and the celiac trunk, independently of the gastroduodenal and dorsal pancreatic arteries,...
Pancreaticoduodenectomy is the only curative treatment for pancreatic head tumors. The possibility to achieve a potentially curative surgical treatment is limited to patients in which a complete tumor resection can be performed with free surgical margins. In a small number of patients with localized pancreatic cancer, negative margins are only accomplished with portal vein resection. Pancreatic...
A 64-year-old female patient with adenocarcinoma of the head of the pancreas with encasement of the common hepatic artery and portal vein stenosis was reexplored after six cycles of gemcitabine (1000 mg/m(2)). Prior to surgery, the patient underwent balloon dilation and stenting of the portal vein in addition to successful coil embolisation of the common hepatic artery, proper hepatic artery, a...
Pseudoaneurysm of the gastroduodenal artery following pancreatoduodenectomy. Stenting for hemorrhage
Postpancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH) and pancreatic fistula are main and serious complications following pancreaticoduodenectomy. Postpancreatectomy hemorrhage is considered life-threatening for its high rate of mortality. Postpancreatectomy hemorrhage is defined as early, occurring within 24 h after surgery, and late. The authors present a case of late PPH which developed in the third week foll...
