Our Pancreatic cancer surgery Techniques: What Suits You Best?

When considering Pancreatic cancer surgery , it’s important to understand the different techniques and which is best suited for you. Here’s a concise comparison of popular options:

Whipple surgery

Whipple surgery, also known as pancreaticoduodenectomy, is a complex procedure that removes parts of the pancreas, small intestine, and bile duct to treat pancreatic cancer.

Pros: Effective for removing tumors in the head of the pancreas. Provides a chance for a cure in localized pancreatic cancer cases. 20% survival rate at five years.
Cons: Long recovery time compared to distal pancreatectomy. Higher risk of complications, including digestive issues and diabetes.
Effectiveness: 50% success rate in achieving tumor-free margins.
Duration: 5-8 hours
Recovery: 6-8 weeks
Best for: Tumors in the pancreatic head, bile duct, or duodenum. Suitable for early-stage pancreatic cancer.
Prices: Cost of Whipple surgery in United States of America from $40000

Distal Pancreatectomy

A surgical procedure involving the removal of the body and tail of the pancreas, often performed to treat pancreatic tumors.

Pros: Less invasive than the Whipple procedure, with a shorter operating time and reduced recovery period. Laparoscopic options available, reducing scarring and hospital stay.
Cons: Potential for diabetes if a significant portion of the pancreas is removed. Risk of spleen removal, which can affect immune function.
Effectiveness: 80% success rate in removing tumors with minimal complications.
Duration: 2-4 hours.
Recovery: 4-6 weeks.
Best for: Tumors located in the body or tail of the pancreas, non-metastatic pancreatic cancer, or cystic lesions.
