Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pancreaticojejunostomy have been studied and modified for more than a hundred years. We investigated a new method of pancreaticojejunostomy to explore its value in laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 93 patients who underwent laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy with 'Shunt-block combined' pancreaticojejunostomy at Ningbo Medical Center Lihuili Hospital from April 2017 to February 2023. RESULTS All patients successfully completed the surgery, with two cases requiring conversion to open surgery. The average operation time was 328.5 (180-532) min, the average intraoperative blood loss was 182.9 (50-1000) mL and the average laparoscopic pancreaticojejunostomy time was 29.6 (20-39) min. There were no cases of grade C pancreatic fistula postoperatively, 10 cases of grade B pancreatic fistula, 43 cases of biochemical fistula and 40 cases without detected pancreatic fistula. CONCLUSION 'Shunt-block combined' pancreaticojejunostomy was a safe and effective method for pancreaticojejunostomy in laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical reconstruction is a crucial stage in various surgeries, including pancreaticoduodenectomy, as it can significantly affect the surgical results. The objective was to design a suture force feedback (SFF) device that can precisely measure the suture force during surgical closures. Afterward, the device was used to train junior surgeons in surgical closure techniques. METHODS The SFF was used to capture the suture force data of experienced surgeons. This data was utilized to train and assess junior surgeons. The SFF device had 2 tactile-based force sensors that measured the applied force. Whenever the applied force was not within the optimal force range, the device provided feedback to the surgeon. A workshop was conducted to train junior surgeons in surgical closure techniques to improve their suturing skills. RESULTS Thirty-seven junior surgeons were enrolled in this training, of whom only 24 completed the 30-day training program. The pre-assessment results revealed that the force exerted by junior surgeons during suture knot-tying was uneven compared with that of the experienced surgeons, with a significant difference in the force exerted per knot throw (P = 0.005. Before the training program, junior surgeons applied a force of 3.89 ± 0.43 N, which was more than twice the force applied by experienced surgeons (1.75 ± 0.12 N). However, after completing the 30-day training program, their force improved to 2.35 ± 0.13 N. CONCLUSIONS The SFF device was shown to be an encouraging training tool for improving the surgical closure dexterity and technique of the participating junior surgeons.

Abstract
Objective: To introduce laparoscopic neo-pancreaticogastrostomy (neo-PG) and investigate its application potential in total laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (TLPD). Materials and Methods: We performed a single-center prospective single-arm trial to evaluate the feasibility and safety of neo-PG for its initial application in TLPD. The first 50 patients who were operated by a single surgeon and who underwent TLPD with neo-PG at our institution were recruited. The pre/intra/postoperation data were collected and analyzed. Results: Twenty-nine male patients and 21 female patients from May 2022 to March 2023 were included. The mean operation time was 272.60 ± 47.30 minutes. The median PG time was 16 (15, 23) minutes. Six patients had delayed gastric emptying (DGE), and all underwent standard LPD. None of the patients had Grade B/C postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) or postoperative hemorrhage, or underwent reoperation. The median length of post-LPD hospital stay was 6 (6, 8) days. None of the patients died within 90 days after surgery. Nineteen cases were pathologically classified as pancreatic lesion, 6 cases as bile duct lesion, 18 cases as duodenal lesion, and 7 cases as ampullary lesion. Conclusion: The laparoscopic neo-PG is a simple, safe, and feasible pancreatic anastomosis that can be applied in TLPD. Pylorus-preserving LPD may decrease DGE rate. Further studies involving more surgeons are warranted to prove that our new technique may terminate POPF in TLPD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To investigate the application potential of single-layer continuous duct-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy with two figure-of-eight sutures ("1 + 2" PJ) in total laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (TLPD). Explore the advantages of "1 + 2" PJ over the traditional double-layer interrupted duct-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy (traditional PJ). METHODS We retrospectively collected the clinical data of 184 patients who were admitted in our department from Oct 2019 to Oct 2022, including 95 cases who underwent TLPD with "1 + 2" PJ and 89 cases who underwent TLPD with traditional PJ. The pre/intra/postoperation data were analyzed and compared. RESULTS The "1 + 2" PJ procedures were successfully performed in all the 95 cases. When compared with the traditional PJ group, there were no statistically significant variations between the pre-operative and pathological data. However, the "1 + 2" PJ group had a shorter operation time (235 (210, 300) minutes vs. 310 (270, 360) minutes in the traditional PJ group, P < 0.001), shorter pancreaticojejunostomy time (15 (10, 20) minutes vs. 50 (45, 55) minutes in the traditional PJ group, P < 0.001), lower pancreatic fistula (both grade B/C) rate (4.21% vs. 12.34% in the traditional group, P = 0.044), and abdominal infection rate (2.11% vs. 8.99% in the traditional group, P = 0.044), as well as reduced hospital stay (11 (9, 15) days vs. 13 (11, 15) days in the traditional PJ group, P = 0.013). In the "1 + 2" PJ group, the median diameter of the pancreatic duct was 3 (3, 4) mm; 82 cases (86.31%) had a normal pancreatic texture, while nine (9.47%) cases had a hard texture, and seven (7.37%) cases had a soft texture; the median intraoperative blood loss was 200 (100, 400) mL and 19 cases (20.00%) needed intraoperative transfusion; eight cases (8.4%) developed postoperative complications, including four cases (4.2%) of pancreatic fistula (including both grade B/C), one case (1.1%) of bile leakage, three cases (3.2%) of delayed gastric emptying, three cases (3.2%) of postoperative hemorrhage, two cases (2.1%) of abdominal infection, and one case (1.1%) of reoperation; the median hospital stay was 13 (8, 17) days; 25 cases were pathologically classified as pancreatic cancer, 35 cases as bile duct cancer, 23 cases as duodenal cancer, and 12 cases as ampullary cancer. CONCLUSION Single-layer continuous duct-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy with two figure-of-eight sutures is a feasible and safe procedure that can be applied in TLPD.

Abstract
Laparoscopic hepatopancreatoduodenectomy (LHPD) is a complex surgical procedure with high rates of complications and mortality and is performed in a limited number of medical centers. The present study reports a case of a synchronous primary malignant tumor of the left hepatic common bile ducts. A 63-year-old male was admitted to Affiliated Jinhua Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine (Jinhua, China) with a 1 week history of right upper abdominal distension and pain associated with yellow sclera. Preoperative CT and MRI imaging demonstrated a synchronous primary malignant tumor of the left hepatic and common bile ducts; therefore, laparoscopic left hemihepatectomy and pancreaticoduodenectomy were performed. There was no biliary or pancreatic leakage following the operation and the patient was discharged 16 days later. Postoperative pathology verified that the synchronous primary cholangiocarcinoma originated in the left hepatic and common bile ducts. Therefore, LHPD for synchronous primary cholangiocarcinoma may be a safe and feasible treatment for this condition.

Abstract
Background and Objective Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is the most common critical complication after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) and is the primary reason for increased mortality and morbidity after PD. We aim to investigate the clinical significance of a novel approach, i.e., end-to-side one-layer continuous pancreaticojejunostomy, for patients with PD. Methods The clinical data of 65 patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy at the Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, from September 2020 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Results Forty patients underwent end-to-end invaginated pancreaticojejunostomy, and 25 underwent the novel end-to-side one-layer continuous pancreaticojejunostomy. No significant differences were observed in pancreatic fistula, intraperitoneal infection, intraperitoneal bleeding, reoperation, postoperative hospital stay, or perioperative death between the two groups. However, the novel end-to-side one-layer continuous pancreaticojejunostomy group had significantly shorter operation duration (32.6 ± 5.1 min vs. 8.3 ± 2.2 min, p < 0.001). The incidence of pancreatic fistula in the novel pancreaticojejunostomy group was 12%, including two cases of grade A POPF and only one case of grade B POPF. No cases of grade C POPF occurred. No deaths were observed during the perioperative period. Conclusions The novel anastomosis method leads to a shorter operation duration than the traditional anastomosis method and does not increase postoperative complications. In conclusion, it is a simplified and feasible method for pancreatic anastomosis.
