Description

Pancreatectomy is the surgical removal of all or part of the pancreas. It may be necessary to treat pancreatic cancer, pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas), or pancreatic cysts. Depending on the extent of the surgery, it may involve removing the head, body, or tail of the pancreas.


Understanding of Pancreatectomy

Pancreatectomy is a surgical procedure involving the partial or complete removal of the pancreas, an organ located behind the stomach. This procedure is typically performed to treat conditions such as pancreatic cancer, pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas), pancreatic cysts, or precancerous lesions. During a pancreatectomy, the surgeon removes the diseased portion of the pancreas while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible. The extent of the surgery depends on factors such as the location and size of the tumor, the stage of the disease, and the overall health of the patient.


Pancreatectomy encompasses various procedures:
