Experimental: Nonstented stump-closed anastomosis
Nonstented stump-closed anastomosis is used for pancreaticojejunostomy after pancreaticoduodenectomy.
|
Procedure: pancreaticojejunostomy
Nonstented stump closed pancreaticojejunostomy: Close the pancreatic stump with interrupted inverting sutures around the "papillary-like" pancreatic duct. A small full-thickness enterotomy was penetrated on the jejunal wall for connecting to the "papillary-like" pancreatic duct by placing 4-6 sutures from the "periductal" parenchyma to the whole-layer jejunum hole. After that, interrupted sutures between the front wall of pancreatic stump and the seromuscular jejunum were performed by 4-0 absorbable sutures to complete the anastomosis. Duct-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy:Two layer anatomosis with "Duct-to-Mucosa" pancreaticojejunostomy is performed by suturing the pancreatic parenchyma to the jejunal seromuscular layer and no stenting tube was used. |
Active Comparator: Duct-to-mucosa anastomosis
Duct-to-mucosa technique is used for pancreaticojejunostomy after pancreaticoduodenectomy.
