Résumé
Pancreatoduodenectomy continues to have a high rate of complications. The most common and severe complications are intra or postoperative bleeding, pancreatic fistulae and derangements of gastric emptying. Each of these requires a great deal of clinical suspicion and an multidisciplinary management. This is a review of these complications, their clinical manifestations and their management.
A pesar de la disminución observada en las cifras de mortalidad de la pancreatoduodenectomía, continúa siendo una intervención asociada a una alta tasa de complicaciones. Las más comunes y asociadas a una mayor morbimortalidad son: el sangrado intra y post operatorio, la fístula pancreática y trastornos asociados al vaciamiento gástrico. Cada una de los eventos anteriores, requiere de un alto grado de sospecha clínica y de un manejo de tipo multidisciplinario. En este reporte se analizan las complicaciones anteriormente descritas, sus manifestaciones clínicas y los principios de su manejo.

Although the classic therapy for chronic mesenteric ischemia is surgical revascularization, endovascular therapy is a new therapeutic option. We report a 55 year-old female, with a 2 years history of post prandial abdominal pain, diarrhoea, and weight loss, with occlusion of both mesenteric arteries and critical stenosis of the celiac artery. The initial treatment consisted in angioplasty and celiac artery stent placement in two occasions, with a brief symptomatic relief. Finally, a visceral artery bypass was performed, with good post operative outcome and complete symptomatic resolution at one year follow up. In our opinion endovascular therapy is a good therapeutic option for chronic mesenteric ischemia in high surgical risk patients, specially when dealing with stenotic injuries. It may also be a complement for patients who need to recover their nutritional status prior to revascularization surgery. On the other hand, due to the long term patency and symptomatic relief, surgical treatment is a good option in low risk patients.
