Abstract:Background: Pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) is a complex procedure with a relatively high risk of complications. There is an increasing trend showing that the success of pancreato-enteral anastomosis depends on surgical skill and the material used. Methods: We present four cases of pancreato-enteral anastomosis resected 37 -114 days after primary surgery and the analysis of the healing process, i.e., morphology of the pancreatic parenchyma, pancreatic duct, and digestive tract mucosa, as well as the pancreatic reac… Show more
“…The most data support the beneficial use of duct-to-mucosa PJ [4,27]. This technique gives the best opportunity to control the patency of pancreatic duct during surgery and gives perfect adaptation of mucosa-to-mucosa resulting in the lowest risk of late scar stricture [10,28].…”
