Interventions

  • Open Pancreaticoduodenectomy — PROCEDURE
    Open Pancreaticoduodenectomy with lymphadenectomy and reconstruction via open technique.

    Minimally invasive Whipple procedure using 6 trocars, with specimen extraction via Pfannenstiel incision.

Study Details

This is a monocentric, prospective, randomized controlled trial comparing the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) versus open pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD). The study aims to determine the morbimortality of the laparoscopic approach compared to the gold standard open approach in adult patients with pancreatic or periampullary lesions.
