Comparison of Three-sided and Single-sided Mattress Pancreaticojejunostomy in Pancreatoduodenectomy

During pancreaticoduodenectomy, the modified Blumgart suture method is used for pancreaticojejunostomy. For anastomosis, 5-0PDS is used for pancreatic duct mucosal anastomosis, and 3-0 or 4-0 monofilament non-absorbable suture is used for pancreaticojejunal mattress anastomosis.

At the time of pancreaticoduodenectomy, the three-sided mattress suture is used as the pancreaticojejunostomy method. In addition to the conventional Blumgart modified suture, the three-sided mattress suture method adds a mattress anastomosis with 3-0 or 4-0 monofilament non-absorbable suture to the cranial and caudal sides of the pancreaticojejunostomy site.
