Synopsis

Built for the surgeon who has to confirm the variant, select the reconstruction, and defend that choice against the complication it prevents, this handbook connects pancreatic anatomic and functional physiology to the operative decisions that follow. It moves from arterial, ductal, and portomesenteric variant recognition through the full range of pancreatic disease — acute and chronic pancreatitis, cystic and neuroendocrine neoplasms, periampullary malignancy — into the resection and reconstruction technique those findings demand, and forward again into the postoperative surveillance that decides whether the operation's outcome holds. Gland texture and duct caliber, established early as the dominant variables governing anastomotic technique, resurface as the organizing logic behind fistula risk, hemorrhage recognition, and long-term follow-up throughout. Named decision blocks work through the trigger finding, the verdict, and the trap logic behind it, turning each chapter's anatomy and evidence into a defensible operative choice.

From the Operating Table to the Follow-Up Visit, You Will

• Confirm variant anatomy before you commit — arterial, ductal, and portomesenteric assessment that keeps the resection plan matched to the anatomy actually in front of you.

• Select reconstruction technique by gland and duct — duct-to-mucosa versus invagination pancreaticojejunostomy reasoning calibrated to the remnant you're holding.

• Stage the neoplasm before you stage the operation — IPMN and cystic lesion criteria, PNET localization, and neoadjuvant-versus-resection decisions built on anatomic-biologic synthesis, not imaging alone.

• Resect and reconstruct vessels without overreaching — venous and arterial technique selection paired with the restraint that knows when to refer.

• Build or convert a minimally invasive program safely — structured training pathways and a universal conversion threshold that treats conversion as judgment, not failure.

• Manage pancreatic trauma under damage control — physiology-first decision-making for the injury that won't wait for a staged reconstruction.

• Grade and act on postoperative fistula, hemorrhage, and delayed gastric emptying — ISGPF and ISGPS criteria paired with the sentinel-bleed recognition that prevents a second, catastrophic bleed.

• Coordinate enhanced recovery and lifelong survivorship — ERAS adherence and functional-oncologic follow-up structured to outlast the acute admission.

Put the verdict in your hands before the next case — the decisions every pancreatic resection depends on, worked through and ready to apply.
