[Jejunal mucosectomy as a preliminary technique of pancreatico-jejunal anastomosis]. / La mucosectomia digiunale come momento preliminare dell'anastomosi pancreatico-digiunale.

The Authors describe mucosectomy as a preliminary technique to pancreatico-jejunal anastomosis. The removal of the last few centimeters of the jejunal mucosa enhances the perfect adhesion of the loop to the pancreatic parenchyma. Results seem to confirm theory: in our experience, "telescopic" technique associated with mucosectomy and somatostatin administration prevented so far anastomotic leakages.
