Objective  To summarize the experience of single center for radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy (RAMPS) in the treatment of pancreatic body and tail cancer. Methods  The clinical data of 52 patients with pancreatic body and tail cancer who underwent RAMPS surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2013 to December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. Results  All operations of the 52 patients were successfully completed, with no death during hospitalization and 30 days after surgery. The operative time was (463±137) min (198–830 min), the median of intraoperative blood loss was 400 mL (100–2 800 mL), of which 19 cases (36.5%) received intraoperative blood transfusion. The median of hospital stay was 19.5 days (7–58 days). After operation, 18 patients suffered from pancreatic fistula, 5 patients suffered from delay gastric emptying, 7 patients suffered from peritoneal effusion, 3 patients suffered from pleural effusion, 4 patients suffered from abdominal infection, 2 patients suffered from abdominal bleeding. Reoperations were performed in 2 patients. There were 51 patients were followed up for 3–35 months (the median of 18 months) with the median survival time were 16.2 months. During the follow-up period, 21 patients suffered from recurrence or metastasis, of which 8 patients died. The results of Cox partial hazard model showed that, surgical margin [RR=3.65, 95% CI was (0.06, 5.11), P=0.026] and adjuvant therapy [RR=6.43, 95% CI was (1.51, 27.43), P=0.012] were statistically related with prognosis, the prognosis of patients with negative surgical margin and underwent adjuvant therapy were better than those patients with positive surgical margin and didn’t underwent adjuvant therapy. Conclusions  RAMPS is safe and feasible in the treatment of pancreatic body and tail cancer, and it may improve the R0 resection rate. RAMPS combins with adjuvant therapy can contribute to better prognosis.
