Pancreas-preserving lymphadenectomy for gastric cancer is a method of removing lymph nodes along the upper border of the pancreas without performing a distal pancreatic resection1 . The surgical technique includes ligation of the splenic artery at its origin and is effective in reducing the incidence of complications related to pancreatic resection, but carries the risk of pancreatic necrosis1 . A technique has been developed of pancreaspreserving D3 lymphadenectomy for gastric cancer which reduces the risk of pancreatic necrosis

Abstract
Pancreas-preserving lymphadenectomy for gastric cancer is a method of removing lymph nodes along the upper border of the pancreas without performing a distal pancreatic resection1 . The surgical technique includes ligation of the splenic artery at its origin and is effective in reducing the incidence of complications related to pancreatic resection, but carries the risk of pancreatic necrosis1 . A technique has been developed of pancreaspreserving D3 lymphadenectomy for gastric cancer which reduces the risk of pancreatic necrosis
