INTRODUCCIÓN: La dehiscencia de la anastomosis pancreatoyeyunal es la complicación más temida de la pancreatoduodenectomía proximal (PDP) y puede ocacionar la muerte del paciente. Objetivo Presentamos nuestra experiencia acumulada en 198 PDPs reconstruídos utilizando la técnica simplificada de la anastomosis pancreatoyeyunal. TÉCNICA OPERATORIA: Consiste en realizar una sutura en bolsa de tabaco alrededor del borde libre del yeyuno para introducir 4 cm de muñón pancreático guiado por dos suturas transfixiantes entre el páncreas y el intestino, cerrar el yeyuno sobre el páncreas ajustando la sutura en bolsa de tabaco y colocar 4 puntos separados para “anclar” la anastomosis. Se descomprime las anastomosis pancreática y biliar mediante yeyunostomía. MATERIAL Y MÉTODO: Estudio prospectivo de 198 pacientes consecutivos que tuvieron PDP en el Instituto de Enfermedades Neopl...

The objective of the present research was to establish, in general terms, the provenience of certain pottery styles dating to the Middle Horizon which are known to the Southern Highlands, Cuzco region. The specific goal was to determine which of these ceramic styles were made in other regions and brought to Cuzco and which were imitations locally manufactured, and to compare their patterns of production and distribution with those of local ceramic styles. These data, in turn, being helpful for understanding some aspects of the social, economic and political dynamics of the Middle Horizon period at Cuzco.

Extended distal pancreatectomy often requires resection of vascular structures and adjacent organs, potentially leading to gastric venous congestion. This case report describes a 49-year-old female who underwent radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. During the procedure, segmental gastric venous congestion was observed and resolved by anastomosing the left gastric vein to the left adrenal vein. The in-hospital postoperative recovery was initially uneventful; however, the patient was readmitted because of intra-abdominal fluid collection that was managed with antibiotics. Pathological examination confirmed moderately differentiated ductal adenocarcinoma with lymphovascular invasion. The patient received adjuvant mFOLFIRINOX therapy and remains disease-free 12 months after surgery with adequate patency of the anastomosis. This case highlights ...
