For the head of the pancreas and the tail of the pancreas, the tail of the pancreas appears to be a little better to treat in comparison. Since pancreatic head surgery is more difficult, involves more organs, removes more organs, and has a higher chance of postoperative complications, while pancreatic tail involves fewer organs, so pancreatic tail is a little better to treat. Pancreatic head cancer and pancreatic tail cancer are malignant tumors of pancreas, which have different names due to different locations of tumors, and the treatment principle is basically surgery-based comprehensive treatment. 1. Pancreatic head cancer: Since there are many organs around pancreatic head cancer, including duodenum, lower end of common bile duct and lesser curvature of stomach, resection of pancreatic head cancer requires resection of invaded tissues (including pancreatic head, pancreatic body, duodenum, lower end of common bile duct and lesser curvature of stomach), dissection of local lymph nodes and reconstruction of digestive tract after resection. In addition, postoperative patients are prone to complications such as bleeding, infection, digestive fistula and pancreatic fistula. To summarize, pancreatic head cancer surgery is a difficult and complicated surgery among abdominal surgeries. 2. Pancreatic tail cancer: Pancreatic tail cancer mainly involves removing part of the patient’s pancreatic body, pancreatic tail and spleen. The operation is still quite difficult, but compared with pancreatic head cancer, the operation time is shorter and less difficult, with fewer postoperative complications, which is easier to treat. If you suspect pancreatic disease, you should seek medical attention.
