ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Minimal access techniques have gained wide acceptance in surgical practice, but the role of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy is still controversial. Laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy has seldom been described. In this report, we assessed the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy for ductal adenocarcinoma of the common bile duct. CASE REPORT According to imaging findings, a 71-year-old Chinese man was diagnosed with malignancy of the common bile duct, and successfully underwent laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy in our center. The operation's safety, postoperative recovery, complications, oncological clearance, and short-term follow-up results of the patient are evaluated. No severe intraoperative or postoperative complications were observed. The operation time was 390 minutes, and the blood loss was about 50 ml; the flatus, time to resume early activity and hospital stay were 3, 4, and 30 days respectively. The patient remained well at a follow-up of 6 months.CONCLUSIONS:
Laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy can be performed feasibly and safely by surgeons with advanced laparoscopic skills, and could be considered for the treatment of common bile duct tumors.
