Abstract Classical pancreaticoduodenectomy for malignant tumors of the pancreatoduodenal region or chronic pancreatitis has recently been discussed in terms of the quality of life, associated with long-term postoperative morbidity. Pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy (PPPD) for the patient with chronic pancreatitis was first reported by Traverso and Longmire. Since that time, PPPD has become an accepted surgical procedure that is being increasingly indicated for certain malignancies. Herein, we report a PPPD that also preserves the parapancreatoduodenal vessels. The reasons why PPPD with the preservation of these vessels is significant are related to the length of the preserved duodenum and the reactions of gastrointestinal hormones. However, it may appear that this new PPPD poses a little greater risk of cancer recurrence, since the surgery is less radical than the usual PD. If the indications listed below are strictly observed, this operation should enable. The indications are: (1) chronic pancreatitis with tumor formation in the pancreatic head, (2) ampullary carcinoma, (3) inferion biliary duct carcinoma, (4) early duodenal carcinoma (all without pancreatic invasion), and (5) certain benign cystic tumors. Whether this operation should also be recommended for patients with small carcinomas or islet cell tumors arising in the head of the pancreas is now being investigated.
