[Pancreas head resection combined with resection of the superior mesenteric vein: extensive procedure for tumors of the pancreas head].
2002
Abstract Surgical treatment for locally advanced cancer of the pancreas head with vascular invasion is controversial. It is regarded as a contraindication for resection by most surgeons, others perform resection involving the vessel. We performed pancreaticoduodenectomy with vascular resection in a 61 year old patient. The vascular reconstruction was performed using reversed saphenous vein. We review and analyse clinical, and operative data and results.
