How to Evaluate Pancreaticoduodenectomy Specimens after Pancreatic Surgery? A Review
Journal Title: LOJ Medical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Pancreaticoduodenectomy (Whipple procedure) is a complicated surgical procedure that is preferred in conditions such as malignancies and traumas of the pancreatic head, duodenum, bulb and choledoch or in case of pancreatitis. Careful attention should be paid to accurately determine the pathological and clinical stage of the disease in patients undergoing oncologic therapies that have changed over the years. This procedure, which is surgically troublesome, requires pathological sampling and care. During sampling, a pathologist must macroscopically analyse the pancreaticoduodenectomy specimens and carefully perform sampling.
