Objective  To evaluate the application of a surgical method in pancreaticoduodenectomy. Methods  All the 211 cases of purse-string invaginated pancreaticojejunostomy performed from Dec.1985 to Dec.2007 were reviewed. Firstly, an accordant plastic tube was put and fastened in main pancreatic duct, and pancreas was ligated at 2-3 cm apart from the pancreatic stump to let secretin flow far away. Furthermore, invaginated pancreaticojejunostomy was performed to get closer between pancreas and jejunum. Results  Pancreatic fistula and perioperative death didn’t occur among these 211 cases. The complications included 2 cases of incision dehiscence, 4 cases of biliary fistula and 1 case of scission of superior mesentric artery. Conclusion  Purse-string invaginated double-layer anastomosis of pancreaticojejunal would be feasible for pancreaticoduodenectomy preventing pancreatic fistula.
