No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Patients undergoing whipples pancreaticoduodenectomy tend to develop delayed gastric emptying.

The study compares two types of anastamosis of stomach to jejunum (supracolic and infracolic) and compares whether it influences the gastric emptying.

The clinical evidence of delayed gastric emptying is correlated with objective evidence of liquid and solid emptying by radionuclide study.

The study also tries to evaluate whether pancreatic leak correlates with delayed gastric emptying

Conditions

  • Postprocedural Gastric Stasis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Infracolic gastrojejunal anastamosis

Following resection in whipples pancreaticoduodenectomy, the gastrojejunal anastamosis is done in the infracolic compartment by bringing down the stomach below the mesocolon to the left of the middle colic artery

PROCEDURE

Supracolic gastrojejunal anastamosis

Following resection in whipples pancreaticoduodenectomy, the gastrojejunal anastamosis is done in the supracolic compartment.
