Résumé
Objective To discuss the resection technique for pancreatic carcinoma in patients with tumour(invasion) to the portal and/or superior mesentery vein,and the clinical significance of palliative resection of pancreatic carcinoma.Methods The clinical data of 71 cases of pancreatic carcinoma operated on within a period of 3 years were retrospectively reviewed.In patients with tumour invasion to the portal vein,a method of direc transection of pancreas was used in resection of the tumor,and was combined with local radiotherapy and chemotherapy.Results The resection rate was 57.75%.The complication rate was 22.54%.One patient died of multiple organ failure resulting from pneumonia.The survival rate at 6m,1-and 2-years was 100%,81.69%,and 40.85% respectively.Conclusions The direct transection method of pancreas(resection) is a simple and safe method to increase resection rate and prolong survival time for patients with(advanced) pancreatic carcinoma.
