Pancreatic Anastomosis Disruption Seven Years Postpancreaticoduodenectomy

الملخص EN

We are reporting a case of a 22 year-old female patient, who underwent a pancreaticoduodenectomy previously for a solid-pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas and was re-admitted seven years later with a pancreatic leak following disruption of the pancreatico-jejunal anastomosis.

Exploratory laparotomy revealed a large collection at the level of the pancreatic anastomosis with major disruption of the pancreatico-jejunal anastomosis.

The pancreatic stump was refreshed as well as the jejunal site and a duct to mucosa anastomosis was performed.

She remains well with a follow up of 18 months.
