Two-stage pancreatic head resection after previous damage control surgery in trauma: two rare case reports.
Jorge PaulinoEmanuel VigiaMiguel CunhaEdgar AmorimPublished in: BMC surgery (2020)
Pancreaticoduodenectomy is a life-saving operation in selected grade V pancreaticoduodenal trauma lesions. DCS is a salvage approach, often performed in peripheral hospitals, making an early referral to an hepatobiliopancreatic centre mandatory to achieve survival in these severely injured patients. A two-staged Whipple's operation for severe duodenal / pancreatic trauma can be performed safely and may represent a life-saving option under these very unusual circumstances.
