Intraoperative ultrasound of the pancreas.
Ultrasound Quarterly 2009 March
Intraoperative ultrasound provides spatial resolution of the pancreas superior to computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and transabdominal sonography. This pictorial essay will review common benign and malignant pancreatic processes including the following: pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, pancreatitis, endocrine tumors, mucinous cystic neoplasm, intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm, serous cystadenoma, and solid pseudopapillary tumor. The use of intraoperative ultrasound in specific surgical situations will be discussed, which include the following: (1) identification of insulinoma(s) which are not detectable preoperatively, (2) identification of the pancreatic duct to determine dissection planes for chronic pancreatitis surgery (eg, Puestow procedure) and for tumor resection, and (3) staging purposes for malignant disease.
