Summary
Jejunal exteriorization offers a safe solution for retrieving large duodenal tumor specimens after laparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative surgery (LECS) when oral extraction fails, ensuring accurate pathology. This method preserves the benefits of minimally invasive surgery.
Area of Science:
- Gastroenterology
- Surgical Oncology
- Minimally Invasive Surgery
Background:
- Laparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative surgery (LECS) is a minimally invasive approach for duodenal tumors.
- Oral retrieval of large specimens after LECS can be challenging, risking fragmentation and impacting pathological assessment.
