context the current literature suggests that minimally invasive surgery is associated with faster recovery and less morbidity than open surgery. parenchyma-sparing pancreatectomy is minimally invasive surgery, including enucleation, inferior head pancreatectomy, spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy, and central pancreatectomy, combined pancreatectomy such as inferior head pancreatectomy plus...

In this report, nine patients with insulinoma who were operated on between 19H5 and I <J<J3 at the Shohada Medical Center affiliated to the Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences in Tehran are presented. There were three males and six females (male to female ratio I :2) and the patients' age ranged from 23 to 60 years old (mean age 37.6 years old). Duration of symptoms was from thr...

abstract distal pancreatectomy has been a standard technique for pancreatic body and tail lesions for years ago. recently, it is being performed laparoscopically in a perfect manner. there are two common methods for this procedure. one is distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy and the other is distal pancreatectomy with spleen preservation. in patients with splenic vessels involvement, it is no...

AIM Assess the postoperative morbidity rates in pancreatic resection. MATERIAL AND METHOD Prospective observational study which includes 117 patients who underwent surgery consecutively due to pancreatic or periampullary tumours. In 61 of the patients, cephalic pancreatectomy was carried out; 15 underwent total pancreatectomy; one underwent enucleation and 40 underwent distal pancreatectomy. ...

background: few cases of persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy (phhi) have been reported, so far. the main concern in the management of phhi is to prevent severe hypoglycemia, which can lead to coma, brain damage and mental retardation. total or subtotal pancreatectomy is normally required for the infants, despite the availability of medical therapies. case report: in this report,...

BACKGROUND A 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. We compared the cost-effectiveness of laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy versus open distal pancreatectomy for pancreatic cancer. METHOD Model based...

The clinical usefulness of organ-preserving pancreatectomy is not well established due to technical difficulty and ambiguity of functional merit. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of organ-preserving pancreatectomy such as duodenum-preserving resection of the head of the pancreas (DPRHP), pancreatic head resection with segmental duodenectomy (PHRSD), central pancrea...

abstract the purpose of this analysis was to evaluate the technological viability, basic safety and consequence of central pancreatectomy (cp) with pancreaticogastrostomy in properly chosen sufferers with noncancerous central pancreatic pathology. this research is centered on the infirmary charts of west china hospital. we recruited 20 individuals from 2007 to 2009 diagnosed with benign cancero...

BACKGROUND Several authors advocate spleen preserving distal pancreatectomy, because of the increased complication rate after splenectomy. METHODS Postoperative complications and survival after distal and total pancreatectomy, were recorded and retrospectively analyzed according to spleen preservation. Patients, who underwent distal and total pancreatectomy without histologically proven adeno...
