Background: Several methods have been proposed for the reconstruction of digestive transit after pancreatoduodenectomy. Biliary anastomosis positioned before gastric anastomosis helps reduce postoperative reflux and cholangitis.
Aims: The objective of this study was to present the anatomical sequence of gastric and biliary continuity after pancreatoduodenectomy in patients with pancreatic tumor and to evaluate the short- and long-term results in an initial series of cases.
Article Synopsis
- The study examines the effectiveness of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols in both laparoscopic and open hepatic resections to determine any differences in outcomes.
- 80 patients were involved, with 47 undergoing open surgery and the rest laparoscopic, analyzing factors like hospital stay and complication rates.
- Results indicate no significant differences in outcomes between the two surgical approaches within the ERAS framework, although open surgery showed slightly better adherence and quicker ambulation rates.
