Pancreato-enteric anastomosis: The duct evagination technique
Journal of Surgical Oncology, 06/23/09

Shukla PJ et al. - The authors suggest a simple modification which involves evaginating the cut end of the pancreatic duct. This technique helps avoid a compromise of the pancreatic ductal patency, and by achieving a wide pancreatic ductal opening can facilitate a safer pancreato-enteric anastomosis. In addition, by possibly decreasing the likelihood of post-operative pancreatic ductal stenosis, it has the potential to reduce post-Pancreatoduodenectomy pancreatic exocrine insufficiency.
