  • The study investigates a new packing method to reduce the risk of pseudoaneurysms after pancreaticoduodenectomy, a surgery involving the pancreas and duodenum.
  • In a comparison of 210 patients, 110 had the packing method while 100 did not; results showed no significant difference in pseudoaneurysm occurrences between the two groups.
