Pancreatoduodenectomy

Pancreaticoduodenectomy is a surgical operation that involves removing the pancreas, duodenum and adjacent tissues. This operation is performed in the presence of various diseases, such as pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer or other serious diseases. It is carried out only in specialized medical institutions where the necessary equipment and qualified personnel are available.

Before the operation, the patient undergoes a full examination, which includes blood tests, urine tests, an electrocardiogram, ultrasound and other diagnostic methods. After this, the doctor determines the optimal method of performing the operation and sets a date for hospitalization.

The operation is performed under general anesthesia, which ensures the patient's safety during surgery. The surgeon makes an incision in the abdominal wall to gain access to the pancreas and duodenum. The affected tissue is then removed, as well as any metastases or tumors that may be present.

After the operation, the patient remains in the hospital under the supervision of doctors for several days. During this period, he may be prescribed antibiotics and other medications to prevent complications.

Pancreaticoduodectomy is a complex and dangerous operation, so it is performed only when absolutely necessary. However, if this operation is performed correctly and using modern technology, it can help the patient get rid of serious diseases and improve his quality of life.

Pancreatoduction is a surgical procedure aimed at removing the pancreas, which is also called the spleen or caudal part. Its removal is always carried out through pancreatoduction in combination with pylorussection. As practice shows, the more a given organ is studied and the more experienced the surgeon, the fewer complications the patient experiences after surgery.

Pancreatoduction is performed for absolutely different diseases of different localizations. This operation is used for severe Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, as well as for complicated forms of chronic pancreatitis, acute pancreatitis, tumors and multiple pancreatic cysts. This type of surgery is performed to remove the pancreas before performing other operations, including plastic interventions affecting the abdominal cavity and retroperitoneal space. Pancreatitis refers to an acute chronic inflammatory process of the abdominal cavity, caused by many reasons, the main one of which is pancreatic disease due to blockage of the bile ducts or pancreatitis with bile duct stones. The inflammatory process develops directly in the gland itself or in the tissues surrounding it and the mucous membranes of the ducts and vessels. Chronic pancreatitis syndrome can occur for many reasons, the most common of which is alcohol intoxication, which can cause inflammation and dysfunction of the pancreas as a result of direct exposure to alcohol or because certain breakdown products of alcohol block the absorption of sugar from the bloodstream. The disease develops as a result of inflammation of the bile ducts - the gallbladder, common bile duct or pancreas itself. This is possible with pancreatic cancer or duodenal cancer with the capture of bile and the pancreatic duct and exit from the bile reservoir into the gland ducts. Pancreatic cancer is very rare and occurs mainly in patients over 50 years of age, but the condition is most often accompanied by extensive ulcerative lesions throughout the body. It is possible that tumor cells may appear in organ tissue cells. Other causes of cancer include alcohol, smoking, cystic fibrosis and heredity. There is also a congenital predisposition: for example, in people with a rearrangement of the HLA-DQB1*0501 - *274 genes, it is possible to identify a mutant gene that leads to a disruption of the body’s immune response and, as a consequence, to the development of an inflammatory process in the pancreas. Symptoms of the disease such as: frequent vomiting, diarrhea, aversion to meat, increased appetite, severe weight loss, increased gas production, dull pain in the abdomen in the middle, intensifying after eating and during physical exercise, are characteristic of most acute and chronic pancreatic diseases. However, to diagnose a specific disease, it is necessary
