What Whipple's involves

Whipple's Procedure — నేను చెప్పేదిWhipple’s Procedure — What I tell patients

Whipple's Procedure (medical name: pancreaticoduodenectomy) pancreatic head, duodenum, gallbladder, bile duct portion, మరియు regional lymph nodes remove చేసే major surgery. తరువాత 3 anastomoses తో digestive tract reconstruct చేస్తాను. Typically 6-8 hours, 7-10 day hospital stay.

నేను AIIMS లో M.Ch training లో ఈ procedure regularly perform చేశాను. High-volume tertiary centre training అంటే cases volume తో experience వస్తుంది. ISGPS (International Study Group on Pancreatic Surgery) guidelines follow చేస్తాను.

Published data: low-volume centres లో Whipple's mortality 10-15%, high-volume specialised centres లో 2-3%. ఇది surgeon choice లో important consideration. Honestly చెప్పాలంటే, ఏ surgeon దగ్గరైనా annual Whipple's volume అడగడం patient's right.

Whipple's Procedure (pancreaticoduodenectomy) removes the pancreatic head, duodenum, gallbladder, a portion of the bile duct and regional lymph nodes. The digestive tract is then reconstructed with three anastomoses. Typically 6-8 hours, 7-10 day hospital stay.

I performed this procedure regularly during my M.Ch training at AIIMS. High-volume tertiary centre training means experience comes with case volume. I follow ISGPS (International Study Group on Pancreatic Surgery) guidelines.

Published data shows Whipple's mortality at low-volume centres is 10-15%, compared to 2-3% at high-volume specialised centres. That is an important consideration in choosing a surgeon. To be honest, asking any surgeon for their annual Whipple's volume is your right as a patient.
