Implication

Observational analysis details early morbidity rates and outcomes of total pancreatectomy in patients with pancreatic cancer, indicating the procedure's specific indications.

Key Points

Total pancreatectomy was performed in 36 patients, predominantly due to pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
The overall morbidity rate after the procedure was 83%, with 25% classified as severe, highlighting significant postoperative risks.
Most patients underwent splenectomy, while a smaller subset required vascular resections due to the complexity of their cases.
The study underscores that with skilled surgical teams, total pancreatectomy can be safely executed despite high morbidity rates.
