Abstract

ObjectiveTo evaluate the results of a novel operative procedure of spleen and pancreas preserving clearance of lymph nodes on spleen hillus and along the splenic artery in gastric resection for gastric carcinoma.Methods The postoperative complications and survival rates were observed in 61 patients of gastric carcinoma undergoing gastrectomy with preservation of the spleen and pancreas (PSP) and clearance of lymph nodes on spleen hillus and along splenic artery.Results were compared with those undergoing traditional operations. Results The postoperative complications and mortality were lower and survival rates higher in patients with preservation of spleen and pancreas than those with spleen and a portion of the pancreas resected.Conclusions Spleno-pancreas preserving lymph node clearance on the splenic hillus and along pancreatic artery is safe and effective procedure in radical gastrectomy for patients with gastric carcinoma.
