["Telescopic" terminoterminal pancreatico-jejunal anastomosis after duodenocephalopancreatectomy].
Pancreaticojejunostomy represents the most important step of the reconstructive process following pancreaticoduodenectomy. Anastomotic dehiscence at this level accounts for two thirds of total postoperative mortality. In order to reduce the incidence of anastomotic complications, we have recently adopted a new technique of "telescopic" end-to-end-pancreaticojejunostomy where, differently from our previous technique, we are not any longer invaginating the small bowel over the pancreatic stump. Our preliminary results obtained in 5 consecutive patients appear to be promising.
