  • Title: Second-stage pancreatojejunostomy following pancreatoduodenectomy in high-risk patients.
    Author: Miyagawa S, Makuuchi M, Kawasaki S, Ogiwara M.
    Journal: Am J Surg; 1994 Jul; 168(1):66-8. PubMed ID: 7912910.
    Abstract:
    Tube pancreatostomy for complete external drainage of pancreatic juice following pancreatoduodenectomy and a subsequent second-stage pancreatojejunostomy were carried out in four high-risk patients without morbidity. This procedure avoids the fatal outcome associated with pancreatojejunal anastomotic leakage following pancreatoduodenectomy in emergency and high-risk cases.
