Pancreatic necrosis was the most common postoperative event after pancreatoduodenectomy. Fewer severe pancreatic fistulae (type C) were recorded after pancreaticogastrostomy although these patients had lower density of the pancreas and unclear pancreatic duct. Choice of pancreatic-digestive anastomosis should be determined by features of pancreatic parenchyma, pancreatic duct diameter. Nevertheless, final decision is a prerogative of surgeon. Pancreaticogastrostomy is especially advisable in minimally invasive PDEs that will simplify inclusion of the pancreas into digestive system and reduce the incidence of complications and mortality.
