ABSTRACT
Pancreatic fistula is the most frequent complication after pancreatic resection regardless of the extent of the resection. A 68-year-old woman with B-viral hepatitis was referred with an incidentally detected pancreatic head mass that was diagnosed 4 months previously when performing following up of her liver cirrhosis. She had no specific symptoms, but she had a 1.2 cm sized solitary mass that was suspected to be a pancreatic endocrine tumor and it was located very close to the main pancreatic duct in the pancreas uncinate process on the imaging workup. Preoperative endoscopic pancreatic stenting was prepared to guide the enucleation of the mass while identifying the pancreatic duct using intraoperative ultrasonography. Precise intraoperative estimation of the mass and the pancreatic duct was possible and the enucleation was successful without injury to the duct. We recommend this operative approach and especially when planning local pancreatic resection for tumors in the pancreatic head or uncinate process, as these tumors make the pancreatic duct injury vulnerable to injury.
