Abstract
Laparoscopic pancreatic surgery is one of the most difficult procedures, and the adoption of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy has been limited. The application of laparoscopic surgery has extended to advance cancer, but there have been no reports of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy after laparoscopic liver resection and distal pancreatectomy. In the present case, a 67-year-old woman was diagnosed with remnant pancreatic recurrence of metastatic greater omentum leiomyosarcoma. She had previously undergone laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy and left lateral liver sectionectomy in 2016. We performed laparoscopic subtotal stomach-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy in June 2017. The operation time was 274 minutes, and the estimated blood loss was 50 mL. There were no postoperative complications. In summary, laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy is a safe and feasible procedure for a patient who had previously undergone pancreas and liver surgery.
