“…We had demonstrated in our previous reports of pancreaticoduodenectomy, that meticulous surgical techniques were important when performing these complex surgical procedures. Furthermore, external drainage of the pancreatic remnant, with an external pancreatic stent, may help lessen the occurrence of a postoperative pancreatic fistula [18,24,25]. When performing a distal pancreatectomy, the main pancreatic duct at the pancreatic stump must be identified and ligated to prevent a postoperative pancreatic fistula.…”

“…Several surgical methods of constructing a gastrojejunal anastomosis have been advocated, none of which can completely eliminate the possibility of leakage (1). Current data on the endoscopic management of anastomotic leakage are also limited, with some reports on the successful use of fibrin adhesives and endoscopic vacuum-assisted closure encountered in the literature (5,6).…”

“…Among a long list of complications currently recognized after pancreaticoduodenectomy, anastomotic leakage is a serious one, with an incidence of 8-20% in recent studies (1). Although the majority of patients with anastomotic leakage can be successfully treated by conservative means, serious consequences such as bleeding and severe intra-abdominal infection may occur (2,3).…”
