Segmental pancreatic transplantation still involves a certain number of possible technical complications.

Abstract

Segmental pancreatic transplantation still involves a certain number of possible technical complications. The experimental studies in dogs reported here evaluate the effectiveness of vascular microanastomoses using doppler velocimetry in two groups of dogs which underwent segmental pancreatic autotransplantation. One group was protected by intraoperative somatostatin infusion, while the other was kept as control. The obtained results indicate that the doppler-test revealed early vascular complications (2/20 animals) and that somatostatin administration may play a major role in the prophylaxis of pancreatitis.
