BACKGROUND/AIMS: @entity6220 ( @entity6220 ) is an alternative technique of distal pancreatectomy (DP) for focal @entity788 ; however, the feasibility of @entity6220 for @entity788 has not been adequately assessed. METHODOLOGY: @entity1 who underwent @entity6220 (n = 8) or DP (n = 8) for @entity660 following blunt @entity130 were reviewed. @entity1 demographics, status of @entity660 , and perioperative outcomes were compared between procedures. RESULTS: @entity660 occurred at the neck of the pancreas in 63% @entity1 (10/16). @entity1 demographics and perioperative outcomes were comparable between the @entity6220 and DP groups. Polytrauma was found in 38% @entity1 in both groups. No differences were found between @entity1 treated with @entity6220 and DP in overall @entity190 (median: 1025 mL vs 1800 mL, P = 0.418) and surgical duration (median: 284 min vs 188 mm, P = 0.172). The incidence of @entity532 was comparable between groups ( @entity6220 : 50% vs. DP: 38%, P = 0.614. CONCLUSIONS: Blunt @entity660 tend to occur at the pancreatic neck, leaving the body and tail of the pancreas intact. @entity6220 is feasible for blunt @entity788 in hemodynamically stable @entity1 .
