Whipple Procedure (Pancreaticoduodenectomy)

The most common technique used to treat pancreatic cancer is a Pancreaticoduodenectomy, also known as the Whipple procedure. The process is named for Allen Old father Whipple, who invented it and was formerly chairman of the department of surgery at Columbia University. About 75% of pancreatic cancers tumours are originate at the head of the pancreas, and it is used to treat those. The traditional Whipple and the pylorus-sparing Whipple are the two most popular forms of Whipple surgeries. The traditional Whipple procedure entails the exclusion of the gallbladder, part of the bile duct, the duodenum, and the head of the pancreas.
