RESUMEN
Laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy has proven to be a safe and effective alternative to open pancreati coduodenectomy with similar oncologic outcomes. Cases including excision of the hepatic artery with or without reconstruction during pancreaticoduodenectomy have been reported for periampullary cancer. Here we present a case of an 82-year-old patient who underwent laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy following preoperative arterial embolization of an aberrant right hepatic artery arising from the superior mesenteric artery.
