Brief Summary

Short description of the protocol intended for the lay public. Include a brief statement of the study hypothesis (Limit : 5000 characters) Pancreatic cancer has a poor prognosis. Surgical resection is the only curative treatment. Major pancreatectomies lead to high postoperative morbidity rate, up to 30%. For some tumors, limited resection are increasedly performed, but the rate of pancreatic fistula is even higher, up to 40%. No precise "anatomic" pancreatic segmentation currently exists. If such segmentation is described, pancreatic resections, major of minor, may have better outcomes. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the existence of independent pancreatic segments, following the lymphatic drainage of the gland.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Lymph node areas colored by the diffusion of the blue patent

    At the beginning of the surgical procedure, 1 ml of blue patent will be injected in the normal remaining part of the pancreas. The diffusion of the dye among all lymph node areas will be noticed by the surgeon.

    3 minutes after the injection

Study Arms (1)

patients operated on for pancreatic resection

EXPERIMENTAL

All consecutive patients operated on for pancreatic resection

Other: Dye

Interventions

DyeOTHER

Cover key details of the intervention. Must be sufficiently detailed to distinguish between arms of a study and/or among similar interventions At the beginning of the surgical procedure, 1 ml of blue patent will be injected in the normal remaining part of the pancreas. The diffusion of the dye among all lymph node areas will be noticed by the surgeon.

Also known as: The dye will be the blue patent, widely used for the detection of the sentinel lymph node for breast cancer
