Middle-preserving pancreatectomy for multifocal intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms of the pancreas: report of a case

摘要: Multifocal or continuous pancreatic lesion is identified frequently but finding an appropriate surgical approach quite challenging. Total pancreatectomy a useful procedure. However, postoperative endocrine and exocrine disturbance inevitable. Recently, the safety feasibility of parenchyma preserving pancreatectomy, including middle-preserving (MPP), have been reported. MPP combined procedure pancreaticoduodenectomy distal while body pancreas, for cases multifocal lesions. So far, there only few reports that described MPP. We report case intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms describe procedure, discuss as parenchyma-preserving with reference to literature.
