Objective To evaluate the feasibility and safety of l aparoscopic radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy through the ligament of Treitz approach for pancreatic body and tail cancer. Methods On 13th November 2017, we selected a patient with a suspicious malignant tumor in the body of pancreas but no evidence of metastasis or local invasion of the retroperitoneum for laparoscopic antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy through the ligament of Treitz approach. The time of operation, the estimated blood loss, and post-operative complications were observed. Results The procedure was completed successfully in 255 min, and the estimated blood loss was 200 mL, there was no need of transfusion and no significant post-operational complications had been observed. No tumor recurrence or distal metastasis was found after a 12 month’s follow-up. Conclusion Laparoscopic radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy through the ligament of Treitz approach is a feasible and safe procedure for pancreatic body and tail malignant tumor in strictly selected patients.
