We performed improved pancreaticogastrostomy after pancreaticoduodenectomy in 60 consecutive patients between August, 1993 and July, 1997. Our improved pancreaticogastrostomy was made by implantation method with pancreatic duct stent. Two-layer fusion of anastomosis between full thickness or mucosa/submucosa of gastric wall and pancreatic parenchyma was completed via gastric lumen with gastrotomy in the anterior gastric wall. The morbidity and mortality rates were 3% and 0%, respectively. There was absolutely no pancreatic leakage, and no postoperative complications directly related to the pancreaticogastrostomy. The biggest advantage of this procedure was to be able to anastomose in a good field of vision via gastric lumen with gastrotomy in the anterior gastric wall. This improved pancreaticogastrostomy seemed to be technically very easy and a safe method.
