The pancreas is an endocrine & exocrine The pancreas is an endocrine & exocrine

organ and both of these functions should be organ and both of these functions should be

kept in mind during pancreatic surgerykept in mind during pancreatic surgery

Pancreatectomies continue to be one of the Pancreatectomies continue to be one of the

major operations performed by surgeonsmajor operations performed by surgeons

Fortunately the difficulties with the operation Fortunately the difficulties with the operation
