Pancreatectomy and Pancreatic Surgery
Pancreatectomy, including pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), as well as central pancreatectomy (CP), distal pancreatectomy (DP) and total/subtotal pancreatectomy, is a major, complex and difficult surgical procedure performed for various benign and malignant ...

Cost-effectiveness of laparoscopic versus open distal pancreatectomy for pancreatic cancer. [PDF]
BackgroundA recent Cochrane review compared laparoscopic versus open distal pancreatectomy for people with for cancers of the body and tail of the pancreas and found that laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy may reduce the length of hospital stay.

Surgery for an Uncommon Pathology: Pancreatic Metastases from Renal Cell Carcinoma—Indications, Type of Pancreatectomy, and Outcomes in a Single-Center Experience [PDF]
Background and Objectives: The role of surgery in pancreatic metastases of renal cell carcinoma (PM_RCC) is highly controversial, particularly in the context of modern systemic therapies and the conflicting results of studies published so far. This study

The current status and future directions of robotic pancreatectomy
Robotic surgery has emerged as an alternative to laparoscopic surgery and it has also been applied to pancreatectomy. With the increase in the number of robotic pancreatectomies, several studies comparing robotic pancreatectomy and conventional open or ...

Pancreatic duct size and gland texture are associated with pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy but not after distal pancreatectomy. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Pancreatic fistula remains a morbid complication after pancreatectomy. Since the proposed mechanism of pancreatic fistula is different between pancreaticoduodenectomy and distal pancreatectomy, we hypothesized that pancreatic gland texture and

AbstractMiddle pancreatectomy is parenchyma‐ and adjacent organ‐sparing pancreatectomy indicated for small tumors located in the body, but deeply located in the gland, and therefore hard to enucleate. Others lesions including pancreatic trauma or arteriovenous malformation are also candidate targets.

Pancreatic endocrine and exocrine function in children following near-total pancreatectomy for diffuse congenital hyperinsulinism. [PDF]
CONTEXT:Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI), the commonest cause of persistent hypoglycaemia, has two main histological subtypes: diffuse and focal. Diffuse CHI, if medically unresponsive, is managed with near-total pancreatectomy.
