Currently, pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is the only definitive method for achieving long-term survival in patients with periampullary cancer. This surgery is one of the most complex procedures in abdominal surgery. The surgical approach, resection rate, and prognosis vary for periampullary cancer of different origins and stages. Therefore, early diagnosis and the choice of surgery are crucial for prognosis. This article analyzes the effects and advantages and disadvantages of current surgical techniques and treatment plans for periampullary cancer, providing more references and guidance for surgical treatment of this condition.
