Better preservation of endocrine function after central versus distal pancreatectomy for mid-gland lesions.

چکیده
BACKGROUND Traditional resections for benign and low-grade malignant neoplasms of the mid pancreas result in loss of normal parenchyma that can cause pancreatic endocrine and exocrine insufficiency. Central pancreatectomy (CP) is a parenchyma-sparing option for such lesions. This study evaluates a single institution's experience with CP and compares outcomes with distal pancreatectomy (DP). METHODS We retrospectively collected data on CP patients from 1997 through 2009 and evaluated outcomes. In a subset of 50 patients, we performed a matched-pairs analysis to directly compare the short- and long-term outcomes of CP and DP. RESULTS Seventy-three patients underwent CP with a median operating room time of 254 minutes. Overall morbidity was 41.1% with pancreatic fistula in 20.5%. Mortality was 0%. There were no differences in fistula, morbidity, and mortality rates between the CP and DP groups. The CP group had resected for smaller lesions. CP patients had a lower rate of new-onset and worsening diabetes than DP patients (14% vs 46%; P = .003). Of new-onset and worsening diabetics, only 1 CP patient required insulin compared with 14 DP patients (P = .002). CONCLUSION CP is safe and effective for select neoplasms of the mid pancreas. Patients undergoing CP have markedly decreased insulin requirements compared with DP patients.

Gastric Bleeding After Laparoscopic Spleen-Preserving Distal Pancreatectomy
Introduction: Laparoscopic spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy for tumors of the pancreatic body and tail is becoming increasingly established at hepato-pancreato-biliary surgical departments worldwide. Spleen preservation is only recommended in benign or borderline lesions of the pancreas. We present a rare complication after laparoscopic spleenpreserving distal pancreatectomy. Case Descri...

Middle-segment preserving pancreatectomy (MPP) is a novel procedure for treating multifocal lesions of the pancreas while preserving pancreatic function. However, long-term pancreatic function after this procedure remains unclear.The aims of this current study are to investigate short- and long-term outcomes, especially long-term pancreatic endocrine function, after MPP.From September 2011 to D...
متن کاملCentral pancreatectomy without anastomosis
BACKGROUND Central pancreatectomy has a unique application for lesions in the neck of the pancreas. It preserves the distal pancreas and its endocrine functions. It also preserves the spleen. METHODS This is a retrospective review of 10 patients who underwent central pancreatectomy without pancreatico-enteric anastomosis between October 2005 and May 2009. The surgical indications, operative o...

Total pancreatectomy has occasionally been performed to treat patients with multiple lesions (such as intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN)) or patients who have undergone repeated pancreatic resection. However, deficiencies of the exocrine and endocrine functions worsen patients' quality of life. Recently, there have been several case reports citing middle segment-preserving pancreate...
متن کاملPancreatic Diabetes after Distal Pancreatectomy: Incidence Rate and Risk Factors
PURPOSE Pancreatectomy can impair production of endocrine and exocrine hormones. In this study, we evaluated: 1) the incidence rate of diabetes in patients undergoing distal pancreatectomy; 2) the correlation between the occurrence of pancreatic diabetes and the extent of the resected pancreas; and 3) factors associated with the development of pancreatic diabetes. METHODS We retrospectively r...
