Abstract

A 77-year-old man underwent a follow-up examination after distal gastrectomy. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed a tumor of the pancreatic body and tail that contacted the common hepatic artery/celiac artery. Subsequently, the tumor was diagnosed as a borderline resectable pancreatic cancer. After chemoradiation therapy, the tumor was considered resectable. Preoperative angiography with intraoperative contrast-enhanced ultrasonography and indocyanine green fluorescence imaging confirmed blood flow in the residual stomach. Postoperatively, ischemic necrosis of the residual stomach was not observed. After distal gastrectomy, distal pancreatectomy with en bloc celiac axis resection was performed to safely and curatively address the cancer of the pancreatic body and tail.
