Total pancreatectomy with remnant stomach preservation in a patient with a history of proximal gastrectomy and interposed jejunal reconstruction with right gastroepiploic conduit preservation: a case report
Abstract:Background
Pancreatic head resection following proximal gastrectomy jeopardizes the blood flow of the remnant stomach owing to right gastroepiploic conduit sacrifice, thereby necessitating total gastrectomy. However, owing to its high invasiveness, concomitant remnant total gastrectomy with pancreatectomy should be avoided as much as possible. Herein, we describe our experience of total pancreatectomy with right gastroepiploic conduit preservation in a patient with a history of proximal gastrec… Show more
