3D Laparoscopy-Assisted Procedure of Duodenum, Common Bile Duct, and Oddi's Sphincter Preserving Pancreatic Head...

Surgical intervention has demonstrated established efficacy for benign, borderline, and low-grade malignant tumors of the pancreatic head, as well as for chronic pancreatitis. While conventional surgical approaches are associated with significant trauma and considerable loss of digestive function, the current focus in managing these conditions has shifted toward preserving functional organs through minimally invasive techniques. Through an in-depth understanding of the peripancreatic vascular arches, our team has modified the classic Beger procedure to achieve complete en bloc resection of pancreatic head tissue. By leveraging 3D laparoscopic technology, we have successfully integrated the advantages of minimal invasiveness and precise resection. This refined technique preserves duodenal and biliary integrity while ensuring complete removal of pancreatic head tissue, effectively reducing surgical complications, minimizing operative trauma, and decreasing postoperative gastrointestinal dysfunction. Consequently, patient outcomes are substantially improved. This article aims to elucidate the key technical details of this procedure, enabling more surgeons to master and enhance its success rate, thereby providing better treatment options for eligible patients.
