Abstract: Objective To explore the feasibility and effect of spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy in patients with distal pancreatic injures and its outcome.Methods Retrospectively analysed the follow up results of 18 patients undergoing spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy in Clinical Medical College of Yangzhou University from March 2008 to November 2012.Results The operations were successful in all of these 18 patients,B-mode ultrasonography and CT scan follow-up revealed that there were no significant changes in the size and structure of the spleens.The operation time was 152 to 188 minutes (mean,172 minutes),and the intraoperative blood loss was 155 to 356 mL (mean,191 mL).The length of postoperative hospital stay was 13 to 19 days (mean,15 days).No bleeding after operation,no pancreatic leakage,and no intraabdominal infection occurred.Conclusions Distal pancreatectomy with spleen and supply vessel preserving is effective and feasible methods for the patients with distal
