Experience of Two European Centers on Central Pancreatectomy for NeuroEndocrine Tumors of the Pancreas

#1092

Introduction: Central pancreatectomy (CP) is a parenchima-sparing operation that enables the removal of benign or low-grade malignant lesions from the neck of the pancreas.

Aim(s): We reported our experience of two high-volume pancreatic centers (Padua -I, and Heidelberg -D), regarding outcome and follow up (FU) of 26 neuroendocrine tumors (NET) patients submitted to CP in the last 15 years.

Materials and methods: Data of patients operated from 2000 to 2014 were retrieved retrospectively, and evaluated in terms of complications, and post-operative pancreatic function. FU to July 2014.
