Abstract
Background: Limited data exists regarding the safety and outcomes of combined division of the splenic vessels with the pancreatic parenchyma during laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (LDP). This study aims to evaluate the combined division technique.
Methods: Patients who underwent LDP for pancreatic cancer from April 2011 to December 2022 were retrospectively reviewed and categorized into the following groups: combined (CV) versus separate (SV) division of the splenic vein; combined (CA) versus separate (SA) division of the splenic artery; and combined (CAV) versus separate (SAV) division of the splenic artery and vein, with or without the pancreatic parenchyma.
Results: Among the 80 patients included, 44 underwent CV and 36 underwent SV. Operative time and major morbidity were significantly lower in CV compared with SV. Similar findings were observed in CAV versus SAV, as well as lower blood loss in CAV. Operative time was significantly lower in CA versus SA. Pancreatic fistula and postpancreatectomy hemorrhage rates showed no significant differences between groups. No patient developed splenic arteriovenous fistula in follow-up.
Conclusion: Combined division of the splenic vessels with the pancreatic parenchyma during LDP is safe and associated with improved outcomes compared with separate division.
期刊介绍：
HPB is an international forum for clinical, scientific and educational communication.
Twelve issues a year bring the reader leading articles, expert reviews, original articles, images, editorials, and reader correspondence encompassing all aspects of benign and malignant hepatobiliary disease and its management. HPB features relevant aspects of clinical and translational research and practice.
Specific areas of interest include HPB diseases encountered globally by clinical practitioners in this specialist field of gastrointestinal surgery. The journal addresses the challenges faced in the management of cancer involving the liver, biliary system and pancreas. While surgical oncology represents a large part of HPB practice, submission of manuscripts relating to liver and pancreas transplantation, the treatment of benign conditions such as acute and chronic pancreatitis, and those relating to hepatobiliary infection and inflammation are also welcomed. There will be a focus on developing a multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis and treatment with endoscopic and laparoscopic approaches, radiological interventions and surgical techniques being strongly represented. HPB welcomes submission of manuscripts in all these areas and in scientific focused research that has clear clinical relevance to HPB surgical practice.
HPB aims to help its readers - surgeons, physicians, radiologists and basic scientists - to develop their knowledge and practice. HPB will be of interest to specialists involved in the management of hepatobiliary and pancreatic disease however will also inform those working in related fields.
