Pancreatic fistula, which is one of the main causes of late postpancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH), is a common complication of pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). It may erode the anastomosis site and vascular wall in its vicinity, resulting in pseudoaneurysm formation and/or the rupture of major vessels. To protect the vessels near the area for pancreaticojejunostomy from potential pancreatic fistula, we have adopted a surgical option by which such vessels are separated from the pancreaticojejunostomy using a pedicled falciform ligament. We reviewed 36 patients who underwent PD that included this option.
