Abstract:
Chronic pancreatitis (CP) with mass and pancreatic cancer are difficult to identify from the Clinical performance. Imaging methods in the diagnosis of the CP with mass play an important role, which is very helpful for the indications for surgery of the hands, of resectable pancreatic head tumor, and surgical options, as well as estimates of the difficulty of the surgery. At present, we have taken the CP with mass as a precancerous lesion of pancreatic cancer. Surgical strategy in CP with mass has been directed at the pancreatic head with a variety of tactics including pancreatoduodenectomy ( Whipple procedure with or without pylorus preservation) and partial resection of the pancreatic duct drainage( Frey operation, Beger operation ). Once the diagnosis of the CP with mass was confirmed surgical treatment should be performed by pancreatoduodenectomy, which by not only the pancreatic head mass was resected, the bile ducts and pancreatic ducts and obstruction of the duodenum were lifted, but also the potential causes of pancreatic cancer were ruled out. Pancreatoduodenectomy has great risk for the big mass of pancreatic head, but the partial head resection can be accomplished with relative safety.
