Middle pancreatectomy for pancreatic neoplasms [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundA middle pancreatectomy (MP) is a parenchyma‐preserving procedure for benign or low‐malignant neoplasms in the neck or body of the pancreas that reduces long‐term endocrine and exocrine insufficiency. MP requires the handling of 2 (distal and proximal) pancreatic remnants, and therefore, the higher rates of pancreatic fistula and ...
