Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) has a considerable surgical risk for complications and late metabolic morbidity. Parenchyma-sparing resection of benign tumors has the potential to cure patients associated with reduced procedure-related short- and long-term complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS Pubmed, Embase, and Cochrane libraries were searched for studies reporting surgery-related complications following PD and duodenum-preserving total (DPPHRt) or partial (DPPHRp) pancreatic head resection for benign tumors. A total of 38 cohort studies that included data from 1262 patients were analyzed. In total, 729 patients underwent DPPHR and 533 PD. RESULTS Concordance between preoperative diagnosis of benign tumors and final histopathology was 90.57% for DPPHR. Cystic and neuroendocrine neoplasms (PNETs) and periampullary tumors (PATs) were observed in 497, 89, and 31 patients, respectively. In total, 34 of 161 (21.1%) patients with intraepithelial papillar mucinous neoplasm exhibited severe dysplasia in the final histopathology. The meta-analysis, when comparing DPPHRt and PD, revealed in-hospital mortality of 1/362 (0.26%) and 8/547 (1.46%) patients, respectively [OR 0.48 (95% CI 0.15-1.58); p = 0.21], and frequency of reoperation of 3.26 % and 6.75%, respectively [OR 0.52 (95% CI 0.28-0.96); p = 0.04]. After a follow-up of 45.8 ± 26.6 months, 14/340 patients with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms/mucinous cystic neoplasms (IPMN/MCN, 4.11%) and 2/89 patients with PNET (2.24%) exhibited tumor recurrence. Local recurrence at the resection margin and reoccurrence of tumor growth in the remnant pancreas was comparable after DPPHR or PD [OR 0.94 (95% CI 0.178-5.34); p = 0.96]. CONCLUSIONS DPPHR for benign, premalignant neoplasms provides a cure for patients with low risk of tumor recurrence and significantly fewer early surgery-related complications compared with PD. DPPHR has the potential to replace PD for benign, premalignant cystic and neuroendocrine neoplasms.

Abstract
Background: Laparoscopic duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection (LDPPHR) is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of the pancreatic head while aiming to preserve the integrity of the digestive and biliary tracts. With advancements in laparoscopic techniques, the utilization of LDPPHR has been increasing. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 10 patients who underwent laparoscopic duodenum-preserving total pancreatic head resection (LDPPHR-t) at our center from June 2019 to October 2021. Additionally, we analyzed the use of indocyanine green (ICG) in the initial stage of LDPPHR, based on current reports. Results: LDPPHR-t was successfully performed in all patients. After surgery, 3 patients experienced pancreatic fistula (Grade B), 2 patients experienced bile leakage, and 2 patients experienced postoperative hemorrhage. However, no patient exhibited recurrence or required secondary surgery. Conclusion: LDPPHR-t is a new method for treating benign and low-grade malignant tumors in the pancreatic head. However, it is associated with a high incidence of postoperative complications. In the initial stage, the use of ICG can assist surgeons in identifying the biliary duct and pancreaticoduodenal artery arcade.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection (LDPPHR) is a surgical method used to treat benign and low-grade malignant pancreatic head tumors. This study aimed to determine the protective effect of common bile duct in LDPPHR using indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging. METHODS A retrospective analysis of 30 patients treated with LDPPHR at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University between January 2015 and November 2022 was performed. Patients were divided into two groups based on ICG use: ICG and non-ICG. RESULTS Thirty patients received LDPPHR, 11 males and 19 females, and the age was 50.50 (M (IQR)) years (range: 19-76 years). LDPPHR was successfully performed in 27 (90 %) patients, LPD was performed in 1 (3 %) patient, and laparotomy conversion was performed in 2 (7 %) patients. One patient (3 %) died 21 days after surgery. The incidence of intraoperative bile duct injury in the ICG group was lower than that in the non-ICG group (10 % vs 60 %, P = 0.009), and the operation time in the ICG group was shorter than that in the non-ICG group (311.9 ± 14.97 vs 338.05 ± 18.75 min, P < 0.05). Postoperative pancreatic fistula occurred in 16 patients (53 %), including 10 with biochemical leakage (62.5 %), four with grade B (25 %), and two with grade C (12.5 %). Postoperative bile leakage occurred in four patients (13 %). CONCLUSIONS The ICG fluorescence imaging technology in LDPPHR helps protect the integrity of the common bile duct and reduce the occurrence of intraoperative bile duct injury, postoperative bile leakage, and bile duct stenosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatic benign, cystic, and neuroendocrine neoplasms are increasingly detected and recommended for surgical treatment. In multiorgan resection pancreatoduodenectomy or parenchyma-sparing, local extirpation is a challenge for decision-making regarding surgery-related early and late postoperative morbidity. METHODS PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Libraries were searched for studies reporting early surgery-related complications following pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) and duodenum-preserving total (DPPHRt) or partial (DPPHRp) pancreatic head resection for benign tumors. Thirty-four cohort studies comprising data from 1099 patients were analyzed. In total, 654 patients underwent DPPHR and 445 patients PD for benign tumors. This review and meta-analysis does not need ethical approval. RESULTS Comparing DPPHRt and PD, the need for blood transfusion (OR 0.20, 95% CI 0.10-0.41, p<0.01), re-intervention for serious surgery-related complications (OR 0.48, 95% CI 0.31-0.73, p<0.001), and re-operation for severe complications (OR 0.50, 95% CI 0.26-0.95, p=0.04) were significantly less frequent following DPPHRt. Pancreatic fistula B+C (19.0 to 15.3%, p=0.99) and biliary fistula (6.3 to 4.3%; p=0.33) were in the same range following PD and DPPHRt. In-hospital mortality after DPPHRt was one of 350 patients (0.28%) and after PD eight of 445 patients (1.79%) (OR 0.32, 95% CI 0.10-1.09, p=0.07). Following DPPHRp, there was no mortality among the 192 patients. CONCLUSION DPPHR for benign pancreatic tumors is associated with significantly fewer surgery-related, serious, and severe postoperative complications and lower in-hospital mortality compared to PD. Tailored use of DPPHRt or DPPHRp contributes to a reduction of surgery-related complications. DPPHR has the potential to replace PD for benign tumors and premalignant cystic and neuroendocrine neoplasms of the pancreatic head.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The procedure of total duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection (DPPHRt) has been reported frequently, but rare in minimally invasive procedure, especially robotic-assisted operation. Here we share our experience and analyze the clinical outcomes of minimally invasive DPPHRt in the treatment of benign lesions or low-grade malignant tumors of the pancreatic head in this study. MATERIALS AND METHODS From October 2016 to January 2022, three patients received robot-assisted DPPHRt(RA-DPPHRt), and seventeen patients received laparoscopic DPPHRt(LDPPHRt). Data were retrospectively collected in terms of demographic characteristics (age, gender, body mass index, and pathological diagnosis), intraoperative variables (operative time, estimated blood loss), and post-operative variables (post-operative hospital stay, and complications). RESULTS All 20 patients received minimally invasive total duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection successfully without conversion, including 8 males and 12 females. Pathological diagnosis suggested 1 case of serous cystadenoma (SCA), 4 cases of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) ,5 cases of mucinous cystic neoplasm (MCN), 4 cases of pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasm (PNET), 2 cases of chronic pancreatitis (CP),4 case of solid pseudopapillary tumor (SPT). The average operation time was (285.35 ± 95.13 min), ranging from 95 to 420 min. The average estimate blood loss was (196.50 ± 174.45ml) ,ranging from 10 to 600ml.The average post-operative hospital stay was(20.90 ± 14.44days),ranging from 8 to 54 days. Postoperative complications occurred in 10 patients (50%). A total of 5 patients (20%) suffered grade B or C pancreatic fistula. Two patients (10%) suffered from biliary fistula. Two patients (10%) suffered from delayed gastric emptying. One patient (5%) suffered from abdominal bleeding. The 90-day mortality was 0. No patient was observed tumor recurrence and new-onset diabetes but one developed diarrhea. CONCLUSION RA-DPPHRt or LDPPHRt provided a minimally invasive approach with good organ-preservation for patients with benign and low-grade malignant pancreatic head tumor. It is only recommended to be performed in high-volume pancreatic centers by experienced pancreatic surgeons.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In this study, we aimed to investigate the short-term clinical outcomes of laparoscopic duodenum-preserving pancreatic-head resection (LDPPHR) for the management of pancreatic-head cystic neoplasms. METHODS This retrospective study included 60 patients who were treated with pancreatic-head cystic neoplasms at the Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University from December 2019 to July 2022. RESULTS No significant difference was found between the two groups in terms of the baseline and pathological characteristics of patients (P > 0.05). The postoperative exhaust time was shorter in the LDPPHR group compared with the laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) group (2 (2 and 4) vs. 4 (3 and 5) days; P = 0.003). No significant difference was found between the two groups in terms of operative time, estimated blood loss, intraoperative transfusion, hemoglobin levels on the first postoperative day, total bilirubin before discharge, direct bilirubin before discharge, postoperative hospital stay, postoperative pancreatic fistula, bile leakage, hemorrhage, peritoneal effusion, abdominal infection, delayed gastric emptying, interventional embolization hemostasis, reoperation, and 30-day readmission (P > 0.05). No conversion and 90-day mortality were found in the two groups. The LDPPHR group showed a higher 3-month postoperative PNI, 6-month postoperative TG and 6-month postoperative BMI than the LPD group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Compared with LPD, LDPPHR can decrease the postoperative exhaust time of patients, improve the short-term postoperative nutritional status, and does not decrease the safety of the perioperative period.

Risk factors for achieving textbook outcome after laparoscopic duodenum-preserving total pancreatic head resection: a retrospective cohort study. Int J Surg 2023; 109:698-706. [PMID: 36999787 PMCID: PMC10389462 DOI: 10.1097/js9.0000000000000251] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2022] [Accepted: 01/26/2023] [Indexed: 04/01/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The risk factors for achieving textbook outcome (TO) after laparoscopic duodenum-preserving total pancreatic head resection (LDPPHR-t) are unknown, and no relevant articles have been reported so far. The aim of this study was to identify the risk factors for achieving TO after LDPPHR-t. METHODS The risk factors for achieving TO after LDPPHR-t were retrospectively evaluated by logistic regression analysis in 31 consecutive patients from May 2020 to December 2021. RESULTS All LDPPHR-t procedures were successfully performed without conversion. There was no death within 90 days after surgery and no readmission within 30 days after discharge. The percentage of achieving TO after LDPPHR-t was 61.3% (19/31). Among the six TO items, the postoperative complication of grade B/C postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) occurred most frequently with 22.6%, followed by grade B/C bile leakage with 19.4%, Clavien-Dindo≥III complications with 19.4%, and grade B/C postpancreatectomy hemorrhage with 16.1%. POPF was the major obstacle to achieve TO after LDPPHR-t. Placing an endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD) catheter and prolonged operation time (>311 min) were significantly associated with the decreased probability of achieving TO after LDPPHR-t (odd ratio (OR), 25.775; P =0.012 and OR, 16.378; P =0.020, respectively). Placing an ENBD catheter was the only significant independent risk factor for POPF after LDPPHR-t (OR, 19.580; P =0.017). Bile leakage was the independent risk factor for postpancreatectomy hemorrhage after LDPPHR-t (OR, 15.754; P =0.040). The prolonged operation time was significantly correlated with Clavien-Dindo grade≥III complications after LDPPHR-t (OR, 19.126; P =0.024). CONCLUSION Placing the ENBD catheter was the independent risk factor for POPF and achieving TO after LDPPHR-t. In order to reduce POPF and increase the probability of achieving TO, placing an ENBD catheter should be avoided prior to LDPPHR-t.

Abstract
PURPOSE Laparoscopic duodenum-preserving total pancreatic head resection (LDPPHRt) is used for treating benign or low-grade malignant tumors of the pancreatic head. However, preservation of the duodenum and biliary tract integrity remains challenging. We present a new approach for LDPPHRt and evaluate its feasibility and safety. METHODS From April 2020 to December 2020, 30 patients successfully underwent LDPPHRt using the intracapsular approach in our center. Their medical records were reviewed for relevant clinical characteristics, pathologic findings, postoperative complications, and survival. RESULTS The median diameter of the lesions was 3.6 cm (range, 2.0-5.5 cm). The median operative time was 234.7 min (range, 195-310 min). The median blood loss was 66.7 ml (range, 20-250 ml). The morbidity rate was 26.7%, including POPF, hemorrhage, lymphatic leakage, wound infection, pulmonary infection, and delayed gastric emptying. Five patients developed pancreatic fistula type A, and two patients had type B, classified according to the International Study Group on Pancreatic Fistula. No biliary tract injury or duodenal leakage was observed. The median postoperative hospital stay was 11.5 days (range, 6-25), and the operative mortality rate was 0%. CONCLUSION The intracapsular approach is a feasible and safe surgical procedure in LDPPHRt for patients with benign or low-grade malignant tumors, especially those without severe pancreatic head fibrosis or peripancreatic adhesions.

Laparoscopic duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection with real-time indocyanine green guidance of different dosage and timing: enhanced safety with visualized biliary duct and its long-term metabolic morbidity. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2022; 407:2823-2832. [PMID: 35854048 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-022-02570-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2021] [Accepted: 05/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Laparoscopic duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection (L-DPPHR) is technically demanding with extreme difficulty in biliary preservation. Only a few reports of L-DPPHR are available with alarming bile leakage, and none of them revealed the long-term metabolic outcomes. For the first time, our study explored the different dosage and timing of indocyanine green (ICG) for guiding L-DPPHR and described the long-term metabolic results. METHODS Between October 2015 and January 2021, different dosage and timing of ICG were administrated preoperatively and evaluated intra-operatively using Image J software to calculate the relative fluorescence intensity ratio of signal-to-noise contrast between bile duct and pancreas. Short-term complications and long-term metabolic disorder were collected in a prospectively maintained database and analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS Twenty-five patients were enrolled without conversion to laparotomy or pancreaticoduodenectomy. Administrating a dosage of 0.5 mg/kg 24 h before the operation had the highest relative fluorescence intensity ratio of 19.3, and it proved to guide the biliary tract the best. Fifty-six percent of patients suffered from postoperative complications with 48% experiencing pancreatic fistula and 4% having bile leakage. No one suffered from the duodenal necrosis, and there was no mortality. When compared with the non-ICG group, the ICG group had a comparable diameter of tumor and similar safety distance from lesions to common bile duct; however, it decreased the incidence of bile leakage from 10% to none. The median length of hospital stay was 16 days. After a median follow-up of 26.6 months, no one had tumor recurrence or refractory cholangitis. No postoperative new onset of diabetes mellitus (pNODM) was observed, while pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (pPEI) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) were seen in 4% of patients 12 months after the L-DPPHR. CONCLUSION L-DPPHR is feasible and safe in selected patients, and real-time ICG imaging with proper dosage and timing may greatly facilitate the identification and the prevention of biliary injury. And it seemed to be oncological equivalent to PD with preservation of metabolic function without refractory cholangitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Congenital hyperinsulinism of infancy (CHI) is a rare condition that may cause irreversible severe neurological damage in infants. For children in whom medical management fails, partial or near-total pancreatectomy is then required according to the type of lesion. Currently, open surgery of near-total pancreatic head resection is a mature technique for the treatment of focal-form CHI located in the head of the pancreas, but a minimally invasive laparoscopic procedure has not been reported yet. The aim of this study was to verify the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of laparoscopic pancreatic head resection and Roux-en-Y pancreaticojejunostomy for focal-form CHI. METHODS Two infants with persistent hypoglycemia and increased insulin levels were diagnosed with CHI and underwent laparoscopic near-total pancreatic head resection due to a suboptimal response to medical therapy and the likelihood of focal disease amenable to surgery. Clinical records, operative findings, and postoperative follow-up were collected and analyzed. RESULTS The operative duration was 300-330 min, and the intraoperative blood loss was minimal. The duration of postoperative abdominal drainage was 4-5 days. Neither intra- nor postoperative abdominal complications occurred. Oral feeding was resumed 3-4 days after the operation, and the blood glucose level was gradually stabilized to within the normal range. Normal blood glucose was observed in both patients over a follow-up period of 3-6 months. CONCLUSIONS Laparoscopic pancreatic head resection and Roux-en-Y pancreaticojejunostomy can be considered a safe and effective procedure with minimal morbidity and excellent outcomes for the treatment of focal CHI in the head of the pancreas.

Abstract
Pancreatic tumors in children are infrequently encountered in clinical practice. Their non-specific clinical presentation and overlapping imaging characteristics often make an accurate preoperative diagnosis difficult. Tumors are categorized as epithelial or non-epithelial, with epithelial tumors further classified as tumors of the exocrine or endocrine pancreas. Although both are tumors of the exocrine pancreas, solid pseudopapillary neoplasm is the most prevalent solid pancreatic tumor in children, while pancreatoblastoma is the most common malignant tumor. Insulinoma is the most common pediatric pancreatic tumor of the endocrine pancreas. Malignant tumors require a complete, often radical, surgical resection. However, pancreatic parenchyma-sparing surgical procedures are utilized for benign tumors and low-grade malignancy to preserve gland function. This review will discuss the epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical and diagnostic characteristics, and management options associated with both common and rare solid pancreatic masses in children. We will also discuss current challenges encountered in their evaluation and treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although rapid progress has been achieved in laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) over the last decade, laparoscopic duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection (LDPPHR) remains a challenging surgery that has been rarely reported due to not only requiring complicated pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) but also ensuring sufficient blood supplies to duodenum and common bile duct (CBD). We completed LDPPHR for 22 patients safely and efficiently with innovative techniques. PATIENTS AND METHODS Clinical outcomes, including rate of conversion to laparotomy, time of residual pancreatic duct reconstruction, incidence of postoperative complications, and time of hospital stay, were collected for 22 consecutive patients who underwent LDPPHR with innovative techniques as follows: application of indocyanine green (ICG) to visualize and preserve CBD and the vessels supplying the duodenum and CBD, Hong's PJ, and pancreatic duct end-to-end anastomosis (ETEA) for the residual pancreas. RESULTS All surgeries were performed successfully under laparoscopy except for one case. The duration of ETEA was significantly shorter than PJ (18.2 ± 5.1 min versus 27.5 ± 8.3 min, p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in incidence of postoperative complications between the Hong's PJ and ETEA group. The overall incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) in the Hong's PJ and ETEA group was 23.5% and 20%, respectively, without grade C fistula. All complications were resolved after conservative treatment. CONCLUSIONS By utilizing intraoperative ICG navigation, LDPPHR is a minimally invasive, safe, and efficient approach for chronic pancreatitis with pancreatic head stones by using pancreatic duct ETEA and benign or low-grade malignant tumors of the pancreatic head by using Hong's PJ.

Abstract
Background Several studies have shown that laparoscopic duodenum-preserving total pancreatic head resection (LDPPHRt) is safe, effective, and feasible for the management of pancreatic-head benign or low-grade malignant lesions. However, there are no studies comparing the short-term outcomes between LDPPHRt and laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD). The present study aimed to evaluate the differences in the intraoperative data, postoperative data, short-term complications, and 90-day mortality rates between LDPPHRt and LPD in the management of pancreatic-head benign or low-grade malignant tumors. Material/Methods Between January 2016 and December 2019, 15 LDPPHRt and 39 LPD procedures were performed. The preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative data were retrospectively analyzed and compared. Results All of the patients received laparoscopic procedures successfully and without conversion. There were no differences in the patients’ age, body mass index, American Society of Anaesthesiologists score, preoperative examination results, preoperative initial symptoms, comorbidities, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative stay, short-term complications, 30-day readmission rates, or 90-day mortality rates. More female patients underwent LDPPHRt than LPD (73.3% vs. 38.5%; P=0.033), and no patients in the LDPPHRt group had previously undergone abdominal surgery (0% vs. 20.1%; P=0.049). The operative time was shorter in the LDPPHRt group than in the LPD group (295±42 vs. 357±87 min; P=0.011). The lesion diameter did not differ significantly between the 2 groups (2.93±1.18 vs. 2.53±1.12 cm; P=0.252). The lesion resection margins were all histopathologically negative. The distribution of pathological diagnosis was comparable in both groups. The LDPPHRt group had 4 cases of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) (26.7%), 1 case of solid pseudopapillary tumor (SPN) (6.7%), 2 cases of pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasm (PNET) (13.3%), 2 cases of serous cystic adenoma (SCA) (13.3%), 4 cases of mucinous cystic neoplasm (MCN) (26.7%), and 2 cases of chronic pancreatitis (13.3%). The LPD group had 21 cases of IPMN (53.8%), 2 cases of SPN (5.1%), 7 cases of PNET (17.9%), 3 cases of SCA (7.7%), 2 cases of MCN (5.1%), and 4 cases of chronic pancreatitis (10.3%). Conclusions LDPPHRt is a time-saving procedure with short-term outcomes comparable to those of LPD for the management of benign or low-grade malignancies of the pancreatic head.

Abstract
Background The Beger procedure is a common surgical option in the management of the unremitting abdominal pain of chronic pancreatitis (CP). As an organ-sparing surgery, it might be a better choice than pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). However, it is rather challenging for surgeons to perform the Beger procedure laparoscopically, especially for patients with CP; indeed, it has rarely reported. Here, we describe the technique and results of our early experience in laparoscopic Beger procedure for the treatment of CP. Case presentation Five patients (1 male) with CP (alcohol induced, n = 3; idiopathic, n = 2) who underwent laparoscopic Beger procedure from May to October 2019 in West China Hospital were included in this study. The median pancreatic duct diameter was 6.8 (4 to 12) mm. The median operating time was 275 (150 to 305) minutes without conversion. Only one patient (20%) developed a grade B pancreatic fistula. One patient required re-operation for jejunal anastomotic bleeding on the first post-operative day. The median hospital stay was 11 (9 to 34) days. No patient experienced biliary fistula, gastroparesis, duodenal necrosis, or abdominal bleeding. The 90-day mortality rate was 0%. All the patients were pain free in the two months after the operation. Conclusion The laparoscopic Beger procedure is feasible and safe with good short-term results and some potential benefits in selected patients with chronic pancreatitis. Further study and longer follow-up are required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is technical challenging to perform laparoscopic duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection (LDPPHR). Only a few case reports and case series of LDPPHR are available in the literature. MATERIALS AND METHODS From February 2019 to November 2019, 24 cases of LDPPHR were carried out in the Department of Pancreas Surgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University. Data were prospectively collected in terms of demographic characteristics (age, gender, BMI, and pathological diagnosis), intraoperative variables (operative time, estimated blood loss, transfusion, pancreatic texture, and diameter of main pancreatic duct), and post-operative variables (time for oral intake, post-operative hospital stay, and complications). RESULTS Nine male patients and fifteen female patients were included in this study. The median age of these patients was 43 years. All patients underwent duodenum-preserving total pancreatic head resection laparoscopically. The median operative time was 255 min. The median estimated blood loss was 200 ml. One patient required blood transfusion. The median post-operative hospital stay was 10 days. Three patients suffered from biliary fistula. Eleven patients (45.8%) suffered from pancreatic fistula; however, only one patient (4.2%) suffered from grade B pancreatic fistula. No patient suffered from grade C pancreatic fistula. One patient with chronic pancreatitis required re-operation for jejunal anastomotic bleeding on the first post-operative day. No patient suffered from gastroparesis, duodenal necrosis, or abdominal bleeding. The 30-day mortality was 0. CONCLUSION LDPPHR is safe and feasible. Real-time indocyanine green fluorescence imaging may help prevent bile duct injury and bile leakage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The traditional open or laparoscopic segmentectomy of liver segment 7 (S7) requires exposing and controlling the root of the right hepatic vein(RHV)after full mobilization and lifting up of the right liver before liver transection. This approach violates the "no-touch" principle for malignant tumors, and makes laparoscopic resection technically challenging. So reports on isolated totally laparoscopic anatomic S7 segmentectomy have rarely been reported. This study describes our experience in laparoscopic anatomic S7 segmentectomy using in situ split along the right intersectoral and intersegmental planes of the liver. To our knowledge, this is the first description of this novel approach. METHODS From September 2017 to May 2019, patients who underwent laparoscopic anatomic S7 segmentectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma at the HPB Surgery Department, Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital entered into this retrospective study. This in situ split approach was designed using main vessels as the plane markers of right intersectoral and intersegmental planes, along which liver transection was carried out. There was no need to mobilize the right liver and control the root of RHV. RESULTS There were 9 women and 15 men. The average diameter of the tumors on preoperative CT/MR was 3.4 cm (range 2-6 cm). All the procedures were successfully carried out laparoscopically. There was no perioperative death. The average operative time was 216.5 min (range 180-310 min). The average blood loss was 320 ml (range 120-620 ml). Pathological study showed all the operations to be R0 resections. CONCLUSION Laparoscopic anatomic S7 segmentectomy using the in situ split approach resulted in R0 liver resection in all our patients with primary liver cancer. The operation was technically feasible and it provided a better view and increased maneuverability in the cramped operative space compared with the traditional open/laparoscopic approach. The approach also better complies with the "no-touch" principle for malignant tumors. Its long-term oncological outcomes require further studies.

Abstract
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) of the pancreas is no longer a rarely diagnosed disease, because of the development of medical imaging. With a high incidence of canceration, especially in the main duct type, surgery is strongly recommended. Pancreatoduodenectomy, distal pancreatectomy and central pancreatectomy are applied in those cases. For this potentially malignant disease, function-preserving surgery seems more appropriate. An old female was enrolled in our research, who was diagnosed with IPMN. Diameter of the main pancreatic duct (MPD) was > 5 mm and lesions distributed to the whole pancreas. laparoscopic duodenum and spleen-preserving total pancreatoduodenectomy was carried out, which has not reported previously. We successfully performed laparoscopic duodenum and spleen-preserving total pancreatectomy, without major complications such as severe pancreatic fistula, postoperative bleeding, and delayed ischemia of duodenum and spleen. We consider laparoscopic duodenum and spleen-preserving total pancreatectomy is technically feasible, but a large sample of randomized controlled trials is needed to evaluate its safety, effectiveness and long-term outcome.
