Abstract:
Objective To study the method of surgical treatment for patients with postpancreatic vascular invasion by pancreatic head carcinoma. Methods 25 patients with pancreatic head cancer and 1 with recurrent duodenal carcinoma with postpancreatic vessels involved by malignancy were treated by radical pancreatoduodenectomy with involved vascular resection(RPDIVR). Results There was no operation death in the 26 patients.Of the 26 cases, 4 had pancreatic fistula and 2 bile fistula postoperatively, but no vascular complication occurred. All of the 26 patients were followed up for 2.5-6.5 years( median time 4.5 years) and the average survival time was 56 months with 96.1%,88.4%, and 57.5% of 1,3,5 year survival rate. Coclusions (1)Colour Dopper imaging is a more useful and practical method in the preoperative examination of the vessels involved by malignancy. (2)When the postpancreatic vessels are involved by pancreatic head carcinoma, the rational treatment is RPDIVR. RPDIVR is a useful, safe, and an effective method and can improve the 5 year survival.
