Brief Summary

Limited pancreatic resections are increasingly performed, but the rate of postoperative fistula is higher than after classical resections. Pancreatic segmentation, anatomically and radiologically identifiable, may theoretically help the surgeon removing selected anatomical portions with their own segmental pancreatic duct and thus might decrease the postoperative fistula rate. Current pancreatic segmentation theories do not enable defining anatomical-surgical pancreatic segments. To our knowledge, no study has tried to describe pancreatic segmentation from the divisions of the pancreatic ducts to date. Hence, we hypothesize to explore the possibility of pancreatic segmentation following pancreatic ducts, using extensive reconstructions of pancreatic duct using micro-scanner on injected human pancreas.

Study Population

consecutive cadavers donated to the Department of Anatomy, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital, Champagne-Ardenne University

You may qualify if:

• All consecutive cadavers donated to the Department of Anatomy, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital, Champagne-Ardenne University for anatomical education and research will be studied. These cadavers will be studied following all the ethical rules of work on cadaver material in our institution.

You may not qualify if:

• Cadavers not usable due to learning necessity, to failure of conservation, dissection difficulties.
