We presented the postoperative CT findings of patients after the Whipple's operation (cephalic pancreaticoduodenectomy), performed for the pancreatic head cancer, or ampullary carcinoma. Technique of the Whipple's operation is described, and normal and pathological postoperative CT findings, which are characteristic for the immediate (early) and delayed (late) follow-up period, are presented. In addition, difficulties in differentiation of afferent jejunal loop from the recurrent tumor by CT are discussed, and references from the literature about the possibilities of successful visualization of the afferent jejunal loop are cited. Possible locations and CT appearances of the tumor recurrences are presented. An overview of the literature is provided.

Background: Obstructive jaundice is a common problem in the medical and surgical gastroenterological practice. Malignant obstructive jaundice can be caused by cancer head of pancreas, periampullary carcinoma, carcinoma of the gall bladder and cholangiocarcinomas.Objective: To review the etiological spectrum of malignant obstructive jaundice in NCI Cairo university during a period of 3 years (2008 till 2010).Patients and methods: Retrospective study including 232 patients who presented with malignant obstructive jaundice between (2008 to 2010). Data were collected from the biostatistics and cancer epidemiology department.Results: Out of 232 patients; 156 (67.2%) were male and 76 (32.8%) were female; the median age of the study population was 49 years (range 19-80 years). Our results indicate that the expression of CXCR4 and mTOR may be poor prognostic biomarkers in DLBCL. The commonest cause of malignant obstructive jaundice was pancreatic head cancer, 72% (167/232), followed by the ampullary carcinoma 15% (36/232). The last cause was cholangiocarcinoma 12.5% (29/233). Regarding the commonest symptom; clay colored stools (98.7%) was more frequent in patients with malignant disease whereas abdominal pain (97.7%) was2nd common symptom.Conclusion: Obstructive jaundice is more common among males and cancer head of pancreas is the commonest malignancy. US, ERCP and CT-Scan are important diagnostic modalities for evaluation of patient with obstructive jaundice with ERCP having the additional advantage of being therapeutic as well.

Introduction. With the improving survival of cancer patients, the development of a secondary primary cancer is an increasingly common phenomenon. Extensive surgery during initial treatment may pose significant challenges to surgeons managing the second primary cancer.Case Presentation. A 69-year-old male, who had a pancreaticoduodenectomy three years ago for pancreatic head adenocarcinoma, underwent an uneventful extended total gastrectomy for gastroesophageal junctional adenocarcinoma. The reconstruction controversies and considerations are highlighted.Discussion. Genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors are common for several gastrointestinal malignancies. However, the occurrence of a second unfavorable cancer such as gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma after pancreatic head cancer treatment is extremely uncommon. This clinical scenario possesses numerous difficulties for the surgeon, since surgical resection is the mainstay of treatment for both malignancies. Gastrointestinal reconstruction becomes challenging and requires careful planning and meticulous surgical technique along with sound intraoperative judgement.

The aim of this study was to assess the safety and efficacy of treating patients with operable pancreatic cancer after preoperative intra-arterial infusion of chemotherapy combined with conformal radiation therapy in a multi-fractionation mode. Patients (n = 40) were randomized into two groups: the main one – intra-arterial infusion of chemotherapy + radiation therapy + surgery (n = 20), and control – intra-arterial infusion of chemotherapy + surgery (n = 20). Neoadjuvant therapy consisted of intra-arterial infusion of chemotherapy (chemoembolization of a pancreatic head tumor with oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2) followed by intra-arterial chemo infusion with gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2. In the main group, radiation therapy was also carried out in two fractions per day, 2 Gy with an interval of 4–6 hours, 5 days a week, up to a total dose of 50 Gy. In the main group, the lower incidence of postoperative pancreatitis and the pancreatic fistulas were statistically confirmed, the incidence of grade 2 therapeutic pathomorphisis increased, as well as the median life expectancy.
