After the removal of the tumours, the surgeons undertake reconstruction where all the organs are reconnected again. This procedure is demanding for patients as well as the doctors.
Vijaykumar C. Bada, Department of Surgical Gastroenterology, Global
Hospitals said that, "Under normal
circumstances, whipples operation would have been performed. But this patient
is a young male and a strenuous worker by occupation. Also, after considering
the risk of respiratory and wound problems, we undertook a total laparoscopic
whipples surgery. This procedure consists of small incisions and recovery is
very quick."
