Duodenum-preserving pancreatectomy offers a more physiological surgical approach for chronic pancreatitis. This organ-sparing technique avoids extensive resections, benefiting patients with severe pancreatic destruction and malnutrition.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Hepatobiliary Surgery

Background:

  • Chronic pancreatitis presents significant surgical challenges.
  • Standard resections like the Whipple procedure involve extensive organ removal.
  • Preserving key anatomical structures may offer physiological benefits.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present two cases of duodenum-preserving pancreatectomy for chronic pancreatitis.
  • To evaluate the feasibility and benefits of this organ-sparing approach.

Main Methods:

  • Two patients with chronic pancreatitis underwent duodenum-preserving pancreatectomy.
  • Preoperative assessment included evaluation for malignancy, diabetes, and nutritional status.
  • Intraoperative frozen section analysis was performed to rule out malignancy.

Main Results:

  • Both patients presented with jaundice, severe malnutrition, and cachexia.
  • Neither patient had malignancy confirmed by frozen section.
  • The duodenum-preserving pancreatectomy was successfully performed, preserving the pylorus and duodenum.

Conclusions:

  • Duodenum-preserving pancreatectomy is a viable organ-sparing alternative for selected chronic pancreatitis cases.
  • This approach avoids gastrectomy, duodenectomy, and distal common bile duct resection associated with the Whipple procedure.
  • It offers a more physiological intervention for patients with severe pancreatic destruction.
