Abstract
BACKGROUND Advancements in multiagent chemotherapy have expanded the surgical indications for pancreatic cancer. Although pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) with portal vein resection (PVR) has become widely adopted, distal pancreatectomy (DP) with PVR remains rarely performed because of its technical complexity. This study was designed to assess the feasibility of DP-PVR compared with PD-PVR for pancreatic body cancers, with a focus on PV complications and providing optimal reconstruction techniques when DP-PVR is necessary. METHODS A retrospective review was conducted on consecutive pancreatic body cancer patients who underwent pancreatectomy with PVR between 2005 and 2020. An algorithm based on the anatomical relationship between the arteries and PV was used for optimal surgical selection. RESULTS Among 119 patients, 32 underwent DP-PVR and 87 underwent PD-PVR. Various reconstruction techniques were employed in DP-PVR cases, including patch reconstruction, graft interposition, and wedge resection. The majority of PD-PVR cases involved end-to-end anastomosis. The length of PVR was shorter in DP-PVR (25 vs. 40 mm; p < 0.001). Although Clavien-Dindo ≥3a was higher in DP-PVR (p = 0.002), inpatient mortality and R0 status were similar. Complete PV occlusion occurred more frequently in DP-PVR than in PD-PVR (21.9% vs. 1.1%; p < 0.001). A cutoff value of 30 mm for PVR length was determined to be predictive of nonrecurrence-related PV occlusion after DP-PVR. The two groups did not differ significantly in recurrence or overall survival. CONCLUSIONS DP-PVR had higher occlusion and postoperative complication rates than PD-PVR. These findings support the proposed algorithm and emphasize the importance of meticulous surgical manipulation when DP-PVR is deemed necessary.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While distal pancreatectomy with celiac axis resection (DP-CAR) contributes to R0 resection for pancreatic body cancer, arterial blood flow to the liver from gastroduodenal artery is essential. However, in the presence of replaced right hepatic artery (r-RHA), extended DP-CAR (Ex-DP-CAR) in which the right edge of pancreatic resection includes the confluence of gastroduodenal artery (GDA) and proper hepatic artery (PHA) may be feasible. Herein, we report a patient with r-RHA and perform Ex-DP-CAR without reconstruction of PHA. CASE PRESENTATION A 39-year-old man with pancreatic cancer, cT4N0M0 (UICC 8th), underwent DP-CAR after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). After laparotomy, unlike the evaluation in preoperative imaging, the tumor was found to invade the confluence of GDA and PHA. After confirmation of arterial blood flow to the liver, GDA and PHA was ligated and Ex-DP-CAR was completed with R0 margin status. The postoperative course was uneventful, with no recurrence 18 months after the surgery. CONCLUSION We performed Ex-DP-CAR with resection of the confluence of GDA and PHA in the presence of r-RHA, which has a potential role in expanding the surgical indications for R0 resection by reducing the risk of ischemic complications without reconstruction of arterial blood supply to the liver.
