Article Synopsis
- Pancreaticoduodenectomy, a complex surgery, risks complications like pancreatic fistula and bile leakage, with emergency cases posing even higher threats due to patients’ unstable conditions.
- A case of a 49-year-old man who suffered severe abdominal injuries from a truck collision illustrates the challenges; despite instability, he underwent emergency pancreaticoduodenectomy and additional surgeries, facing postoperative issues managed conservatively.
- Although high-risk, emergency pancreaticoduodenectomy can be lifesaving for trauma patients with severe injuries, it should only be performed by experienced surgeons at specialized centers.
