Tenderloin of the Pancreas

Pancreatic incision (incisura pancreatis) is an anatomical term used to refer to the anatomical cut between the body and tail of the pancreas. This incision passes through the middle of the body of the gland, where it connects to the duodenum.

The pancreatic notch is important for pancreatic surgery because it forms the boundary between the two main sections of the gland, the body and the tail. The body of the pancreas is responsible for the production of digestive enzymes, and the tail of the pancreas is involved in the production of hormones such as insulin and glucagon.

Removal or resection of part of the body or tail of the pancreas may be necessary to treat various diseases, such as pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, or other tumors. However, when performing operations on the pancreas, it is important to take into account the anatomical features of the pancreatic notch in order to avoid damage to its important structures and ensure successful recovery after surgery.

Thus, the pancreatic notch is an important anatomical landmark for surgeons treating diseases of the pancreas and its surrounding structures.

Introduction to the topic: The pancreatic notch is an anatomical structure that is located between the body and tail of the pancreas. It is one of the important structures of the body and plays an important role in the functioning of this gland. In this article we will look at the anatomical features, functions of the pancreatic notch, as well as associated diseases and possible complications.

Anatomical features: The subpancreas is located above the transverse colon and the posterior wall of the stomach. It is a cylindrical organ about 15 cm long and about 3 cm wide. At the top, this organ narrows, forming a cone-shaped head. Under the skin on the right side of the abdomen is the tail of the pancreas at the border of the back and abdomen. The organ itself has two processes: the root of the tail and the anterior branch. The tail root process connects the pancreas with the spleen and duodenum, and the anterior branch provides its connection with the stomach. In addition, the pancreas is connected to the liver via the gallbladder duct. To work effectively, the gland must move freely throughout the abdominal cavity. Functional Roles: The main function of the pancreas is to produce digestive enzymes. Its lower section, the tail, contains acinar cells that secrete pancreatic juice containing enzymes such as amylase, lipase and proteases. The pancreatic ducts connect to the duodenum
