Pancreatic body and tail clearance, incorporating spleen preservation or splenectomy.

CLINICAL ONCOLOGY PORTAL

Surgical Clearance Protocol

This protocol details the clinical parameters, resection boundaries, and anatomical checkpoints managed during the procedure. The priority is achieving R0 (microscopically negative) margins while preserving surrounding neural and vascular structures.

Procedural Stages

Retroperitoneal access and mobilization of the pancreatic body.
Radical Anterograde Modular Pancreaticosplenectomy (RAMPS) protocol integration.
Division of the pancreas at the neck using vascular staplers or suture techniques.
Splenic vessel ligation tracking mesenteric boundaries.
