    Intraoperative ultrasonography (US) aids surgical decisions in pancreatic diseases. This study reports US diagnostic experience in 34 pancreatic cases, including neoplasms and pancreatitis.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Surgical Oncology
    • Diagnostic Imaging

    Background:

    • Intraoperative ultrasonography (US) is a valuable tool in surgical practice.
    • Its utility in diagnosing pancreatic diseases requires further elucidation.
    • Accurate intraoperative diagnosis impacts patient management and surgical strategy.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report the authors' experience with intraoperative US in diagnosing pancreatic diseases.
    • To evaluate the effectiveness of intraoperative US in surgical decision-making for pancreatic conditions.
    • To assess the sensitivity of intraoperative US in identifying pancreatic neoplasms and inflammatory conditions.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of intraoperative US procedures performed for pancreatic diseases.

  • Inclusion of cases involving pancreatic neoplasms (exocrine and endocrine), chronic pancreatitis, and acute pancreatitis.
  • Correlation of US findings with histopathological results and clinical outcomes.

    • Main Results:

    • The study included 34 patients: 23 with pancreatic neoplasms, 3 with chronic pancreatitis, and 8 with acute pancreatitis.
    • Intraoperative US demonstrated utility in differentiating neoplastic from inflammatory lesions.
    • US findings influenced surgical decisions in a significant proportion of cases.

    Conclusions:

    • Intraoperative ultrasonography is a sensitive and effective diagnostic procedure for pancreatic diseases.
    • US enhances surgical decision-making, potentially improving patient outcomes.
    • The findings support the routine use of intraoperative US in the management of complex pancreatic pathologies.
