Pancreatic Surgery

Pancreatic surgery involves specialized procedures to treat diseases of the pancreas, including tumors, cysts, and chronic inflammation. The pancreas plays a crucial role in digestion and blood sugar regulation, making timely and precise treatment essential.

With modern surgical advancements, pancreatic procedures are now safer, more effective, and offer improved recovery outcomes.

Conditions Treated

• Pancreatic cancer
• Pancreatic cysts and tumors
• Chronic pancreatitis
• Neuroendocrine tumors
• Pancreatic duct obstruction

1. Whipple Procedure (Pancreaticoduodenectomy)

A complex surgery to remove tumors from the head of the pancreas along with parts of nearby organs.

2. Distal Pancreatectomy

Removal of the body and tail of the pancreas.

3. Total Pancreatectomy

Removal of the entire pancreas (in selected cases).

4. Drainage Procedures
