[Oncologic risk in pylorus preservation in resection of ductal pancreas carcinoma]
Abstract
We detected peripyloric lymph node metastasis in 2 of 24 patients with ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas who underwent Kausch-Whipple's procedure. The resection would have been palliative if these patients were treated by pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy.
