Pancreatogastrostomy With Gastric Partition After Pylorus-Preserving Pancreatoduodenectomy Versus Conventional Pancreatojejunostomy

Abstract

This study shows that PPPD-GP can be performed safely and is associated with less complication than PPPD-PJ. The advantage of this technique over other PG techniques is that the anastomosis is outside the area of the stomach where the contents empty into the jejunum, but pancreatic juice drains directly into the stomach.
