The surgical techniques for pancreatic surgery evolve rapidly with the improvement of surgical skills, radiology, anesthesiology and intensive care. Though this procedure has been optimised over time, however, due to the complex anatomy of the pancreas, the overall complication rate for pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) remains about 40%.
