    Total pancreatectomy is a complex surgery for benign conditions, reserved for select patients when other treatments fail. Careful surgical planning, including vagotomy and gastrectomy, is crucial to prevent complications and ensure optimal pain control post-surgery.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology and Surgical Oncology

    Background:

    • Total pancreatectomy is a radical surgical procedure for benign pancreatic diseases.
    • Its use is debated due to potential complications and the availability of less invasive options.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To outline the considerations and necessary adjuncts for performing total pancreatectomy in benign disease.
    • To highlight potential postoperative complications and their impact on patient outcomes.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of surgical principles and outcomes for total pancreatectomy in benign conditions.
    • Emphasis on specific surgical techniques like truncal vagotomy and gastrectomy to mitigate risks.

    Main Results:

    • Total pancreatectomy should be reserved for highly selected patients after failure of less extensive surgeries.

  • Adjunctive procedures like truncal vagotomy and gastrectomy are recommended to prevent marginal ulceration.

    • Conclusions:

    • Total pancreatectomy for benign disease requires careful patient selection and meticulous surgical technique.
    • Postoperative complications are common and can significantly impact pain control and overall outcomes, potentially necessitating reoperation.
