Title: Duodenectomy without pancreatectomy for extensive benign villous adenoma of the duodenum. Author: Vallance S. Journal: Aust N Z J Surg; 1990 Apr; 60(4):311-4. PubMed ID: 2322220. Abstract: Villous adenomas of the duodenum are uncommon, but two have been treated recently in Blenheim. One of these was an extensive benign tumour involving most of the second part of the duodenum but causing no biliary tract obstruction. It was treated by pyloric sphincter-sparing duodenectomy without pancreatectomy, with repair by Roux loop to the bile and pancreatic ducts and proximal duodenum. This procedure does not appear to have been described previously.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
