Abstract

Stenosis of pancreatico-digestive anastomoses following pancreaticoduodenectomy is frequently observed. In a patient operated on for intraductal papillary and mucinous neoplasm, it can induce a massive dilatation of the main pancreatic duct leading to the misdiagnosis of tumor recurrence with main duct involvement.
