Key Department Guide

Pancreatic Surgery

Pancreatic surgery primarily diagnoses and treats pancreatic tumors, complications of pancreatitis, periampullary tumors, and pancreatic trauma. Surgical procedures include pancreaticoduodenectomy, distal pancreatectomy, and vascular reconstruction, which are technically complex and carry high perioperative risks. For resectable pancreatic cancer and periampullary tumors, radical resection combined with comprehensive treatment is key to improving prognosis; for complications of chronic pancreatitis, surgery can relieve pain or manage obstruction. Preoperative assessment of nutrition, jaundice, glucose metabolism, cardiopulmonary function, and vascular invasion is necessary. Common postoperative problems include pancreatic fistula, bleeding, delayed gastric emptying, infection, and new-onset diabetes. In cases of distant metastasis, unresectable local invasion, or poor performance status, a multidisciplinary evaluation of non-surgical strategies should be prioritized.
