[Diagnostic laparotomy and palliative surgery in jaundice caused by tumors of the pancreato-duodenal zone].
The remote results of palliative operations for tumors of the pancreatoduodenal zone in 266 patients were analysed. Among palliative procedures cholecysto-jejunoanastomosis was most frequently employed in the clinic. 72 patients died. An acute hepatic insufficiency and cancerous intoxication was the main cause of the mortality. It is concluded that the survival of patients postoperatively depends on tumor localization and the degree of cancerous intoxication. The construction of cholecysto-jejunoanastomosis with the Brown enteroanastomosis seems to be mostly rational.
