Pancreatic Cancer Surgery Options: Whipple's vs Distal Pancreatectomy

In this video, we discuss the main surgical treatment options for pancreatic cancer, focusing on the Whipple's pancreaticoduodenectomy and distal pancreatectomy. The choice of surgery depends on the location of the tumor and the patient's condition. Both surgeries are considered major and are among the most difficult abdominal procedures.

Whipple’s pancreaticoduodenectomy involves the removal of the head of the pancreas, parts of the small intestine, and other nearby tissues, while distal pancreatectomy focuses on removing the tail portion of the pancreas. Despite being challenging surgeries, when performed in high-volume centers where experienced teams conduct these procedures regularly, the outcomes can be exceptionally good.

Learn more about these complex pancreatic cancer surgeries and how their effectiveness is greatly influenced by the expertise and experience of the surgical team.
