Immediate results of 151 pancreatoduodenal resections (PDR) were analyzed. This surgery was performed for tumors of gastropancreatoduodenal region in 88.1% patients, for chronic complicated pancreatitis--in 11.9%. Pylorus-saving PDR was performed in 82.8% patients, in combination with stomach resection--in 17.2%. Extended and regional pancreatectomy was performed in 20.3% patients with tumors of periampullar zone, extended lymphadenectomy--in 44.4%. Pancreatoenteroanastomosis was created in 82.8% patients, end-loop Wirsungenteroanastomosis by original author's method--in 52.3% of them, traditional Wirsungenteroanastomosis end-to-side--in 30.5%, complete external drainage of pancreas stump was performed in 13.9%, suturing of pancreas stump--in 2.6%, pancreatogastroanastomosis was created in 1 (0.7%) patient. There was no insufficiency of pancreatoduodenoanastomosis performed with original method, while in traditional Wirsungenteroanastomosis it was seen in 4.4% patients. End-loop anastomosis permitted to reduce number of complications after PDR 1.6--3 times. General lethality was 11.3%, in end-loop anastomosis--3.8% that significantly lower than after other methods of treatment of pancreas stump.
