Minimally Invasive Pancreatico-duodenectomy

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Pancreaticoduodenectomy
Interventions
Procedure: Laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy
Procedure: Open pancreaticoduodenectomy
Registration Number
NCT02807701
Lead Sponsor
Mansoura University
Brief Summary

Open pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is the standard treatment for a wide array of periampullary and pancreatic diseases including malignant and benign conditions. The outcome of PD has improved over the last two decades due to advances in surgical techniques, anesthesia and perioperative care. Although studies from high volume centers demonstrate reduce in the operative mortality to less than 3%, the postoperative morbidity rate is still ranging from 30% to 60%. Laparoscopic surgery is being used increasingly as a less invasive alternative to traditional interventions for pancreatic resection. Laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) is a difficult procedure that has become increasingly popular. Nevertheless, comparative data on outcomes remain limited. In this prospective randomized study, investigators evaluate the safety and feasibility of surgical and oncological outcomes of minimally invasive PD compared to conventional open PD.

Detailed Description

Open pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is the standard treatment for a wide array of periampullary and pancreatic diseases including malignant and benign conditions. The outcome of PD has improved over the last two decades due to advances in surgical techniques, anesthesia and perioperative care . Although studies from high volume centers demonstrate reduce in the operative mortality to less than 3%, the postoperative morbidity rate is still ranging from 30% to 60%. Laparoscopic surgery is being used increasingly as a less invasive alternative to traditional interventions for pancreatic resection. Laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) is a difficult procedure that has become increasingly popular. Nevertheless, comparative data on outcomes remain limited despite several improvements in surgical devices and techniques that have allowed surgeons to approach the pancreas laparoscopically, laparoscopic PD remains challenging. LPD represents one of the most advanced abdominal operations owing to the necessity of a complex dissection and reconstruction. Recent reports note that complete laparoscopic PD including laparoscopic resection and reconstruction is both technically feasible and safe. In this prospective randomized study, investigators evaluate the safety and feasibility of surgical and oncological outcomes of minimally invasive PD compared to conventional open PD

Laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomyLaparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomyLaparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy Under general anesthesia, the patient is placed in a supine position with the legs abducted. Carbon dioxide pneumoperitoneum is established using an open technique through a 10-mm trocar over the umbilicus. A 30 telescope is inserted to examine the peritoneal cavity, liver, stomach, and mesentric vessels.Then 4 to 6 more trocars are inserted under direct vision in the epigastrium and upper quadrants 1. dissection 2. reconstruction

Abdominal cavity is explored for metastasis especially in liver, base of mesentary, mesocolon and pelvis. Dissection Reconstruction Pancreaticogastrostomy Hepaticojejunostomy is next- Done in single layer and can be performed in interrupted or continuous fashion. Gastrojejunostomy is the final step of reconstruction.
