ABSTRACT
Objective@#To summarize the postoperative nursing experience of 1 patient with pancreatic cancer who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy combined with superior mesenteric vein resection and artificial vascular reconstruction.@*Methods@#The nursing measures included: paying attention to anticoagulation treatment and observing its effect, strengthening pain management, giving nutritional support, pertinent nursing care for gastroparesis, guiding quantitative respiratory treatment for patient, preventing the lack of trace elements during jejunitas.@*Results@#Through active and effective nursing, the patients were discharged smoothly forty-seven days after operation.@*Conclusions@#Through nursing of 1 patient with pancreatic cancer underwent pancreatoduodenectomy combined with superior mesenteric vein resection and artificial vascular reconstruction after surgery, nurses can improve the nursing skills and nursing observation ability, as well as the theoretical basis and practical experience for the future clinical work.
ABSTRACT
Pancreatic cancer frequently infiltrates the portal vein system because of the close anatomical proximity between the head of the pancreas and the portal/superior mesenteric vein confluence,and the biological character of invasion. In these cases, pancreatectomy combined with portal vein/superior mesenteric vein resection is a potential treatment, but the outcome remains controversial. So far there is no significant evidence have shown that the pancreatectomy combined with portal vein/superior mesenteric vein resection improves the prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients. In order to establish clinical practice guidelines, as well as standardize operational indication and operational method, it is necessary to conduct large-scale, multicenter, randomized and controlled prospective clinical trials,and collect long-term follow up information.
