[Tumor in Vater's ampulla--local excision or Whipple's resection].
Results of the operative treatment of Vater's papilla carcinoma in fifteen cases were analysed. Eleven patients had pancreatoduodenectomy according to Whipple, four had only local excision of Vater's papilla along with the tumour. All four had early recurrence and were re-operated by Whipple method. In our experience only radical pancreatoduodenectomy with regional lymphadenectomy, preferably Whipple type, gives chance of achieving the radical cure.
