[Improved technique for internal biliary-digestive drainage during conventional palliative procedure of nonresectable tumors of periampullary region].

Aim: We represent variation of bilio-digestive stomy with "lost" protecting drainage during conventional palliative procedure of nonresectable tumors of periampullary region.

Materials And Methods: During the period 01.01.2008 -31.05.2008 in the Clinic of general and liver-pancreatic surgery-"Aleksandrovska" Hospital, Sofia, we applied modified technique for internal bilio-digestive prosthetic drain with "lost" drainage, protecting choledocho-duodenostomy in 12 patients with nonresectable tumors of periampullary region. Eight of them are males and 4--females, with age between 60-82 (average 64,5). In 8 patients we found nonresectable malignancy of the head of pancreas and in 4 nonresectable malignancy of distal part of the common bile duct.

Results: We follow the early postoperative results and postoperative period during tree months. We did not have insufficiency of the choledocho-duodenostomy and that afford early discharge of the patients. At the end of third month we haven't observed jaundice or other complications cause of obstruction of protecting drainage.

Conclusion: We consider that the technique is useful and appropriate when doing choledocho-duodenostomy cause of nonresectable periampullary neoplasms. The using of this technique don't increase the postoperative morbidity and improve early postoperative results.
