A modified technique for the reconstruction of the alimentary tract after pancreatoduodenectomy.

The high death rate for those patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy, which is a result of leakage of biliary and pancreatic anastomoses in most instances, justifies the study of this technique for rebuilding the alimentary tract. The use of two separate intestinal loops for the biliary and pancreatic anastomoses is the basis of this method. This technique reduces the morbidity and the death rates which are the result of leakage in either anastomosis because it separates biliary and pancreatic fistulas.
