[The value of "posterior approach, uncinate process priority, artery first" in laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy]

Objective: To explore the value of "posterior approach, uncinate process priority, artery first" in laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy. Methods: The clinical data of 200 patients who underwent laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy from January 2018 to April 2019 in the Second Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, the First Hospital of Jilin University were analyzed retrospectively. Meanwhile, the advantages of "posterior approach, uncinate process priority, artery first" were analyzed. Results: Two hundred patients were treated with "posterior approach, uncinate process priority, artery first". The average total operation time was (260.2±50.1) min, sample cutting time was (86.6±18.7) min, intraoperative bleeding volume was 50 (50-100) ml, average number of lymph node dissection was (19.2±7.4), and average hospitalization time was (17.9±9.9) days. Conclusion: The "posterior approach, uncinate process first, artery first" approach not only protects the variant hepatic artery, but also allows early detection of SMA, clarifies the positional relationship between the tumor and SMA, realizes R0 resection, and reduces the amount of bleeding during operation and shortens the operation time, which is safe and feasible in clinical setting.
