Objective To investigate the historical evolution and the research progress of pancreaticoenterostomy method in the pancreaticoduodenectomy. Methods The related literatures of PubMed， EMBASE， Wanfang， CNKI， and VIP databases were retrieved and reviewed. The advantages and disadvantages of various pancreaticojejunostomy type in pancreaticoduodenectomy were summarized. Results The type of pancreaticoenterostomy is the major influence factors for the pancreaticoduodenectomy success or failure and the patients’s recovery. Conclusion According to the specific cases， the type of pancreaticojejunostomy in skilled operation is the key to success.
Objective To investigate the new method of pancreaticoenterostomy and decrease the probability of complications like pancreatic fistula etc. Methods By using the absorbable bandage and ear-brain glue, modified sutureless pancreaticoenteromy was made in 10 swines. Experimental data includes： routine analysis of blood, levels of amylase in blood and abdominal drainage and lipase in blood and abdominal drainage. The tissues in anastomosis were taken for pathology examination in 1 month after operation. Results The average operative time was （35±10） min.Nine of ten animals had no pancreatic fistula and survived. The levels of amylase and lipase in abdominal drainage were both normal. One swine had a evident abdominal distensile on 2 days after operation, the level of amylase was 10 000u/L,then died on 10 days after operation. Pancreatic fistula and infection were found because of the loss of stent in pancreatic duct. Conclusions Comparison with traditional operation, the modified sutureless pancreaticoenteromy can also control the probability of pancreatic fistula. And this method can be hoped to be one of the routine operations of pancreaticoenterostomy because of its simplicity and practicality.
