[The surgical treatment of malignant tumors of the head of the pancreas and of the periampullary area].

Under analysis are results of pancreatoduodenal resections in 71 patients. In patients with mechanical jaundice lymph drainage with sorption and return of lymph into the vascular bed was used during the preoperative preparation. Occlusion of the duct system of the pancreas stump with glue KL-3 was performed on 62 patients, in 9 patients choledochocholecysto-anastomosis was used in order to improve the quality of the biliodigestive opening. A cryoprocedure on the nonremoved portion of the tumor was performed in 3 cases on the posterolateral surface of the portal vein. These measures allowed the postoperative lethality to be reduced up to 11.2%.
