Overview

The pancreas is a vital organ responsible for digestion and blood sugar regulation. Pancreatic conditions range from inflammatory diseases like pancreatitis to complex cancers. Dr. Biswajit Deuri's specialized training in HPB surgery makes him one of the few surgeons equipped to manage the full range of pancreatic conditions, including complex resections for pancreatic cancer.

Conditions We Treat

  • Acute and chronic pancreatitis
  • Pancreatic cysts and pseudocysts
  • Pancreatic ductal stones (chronic pancreatitis complications)
  • Pancreatic cancer — resection (Whipple procedure)
  • Cystic tumors of the pancreas (IPMN, MCN, SCN)
  • Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNET)
  • Stone in the pancreas
  • Pancreatic fistula management

Procedure & Approach

Surgical options include drainage procedures for chronic pancreatitis, laparoscopic or open cyst drainage for pseudocysts, and complex resections such as the Whipple procedure (pancreaticoduodenectomy) or distal pancreatectomy for tumors and cancer. Dr. Deuri carefully selects the least invasive appropriate approach for each patient.

Recovery & After-Care

Minor pancreatic procedures may require 3–5 days in hospital. Major pancreatic resections (Whipple procedure) require 7–10 days in hospital and 6–8 weeks of home recovery with dietary modifications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the warning signs of pancreatic cancer?
Key warning signs include unexplained weight loss, painless jaundice (yellow skin), persistent upper abdominal pain radiating to the back, loss of appetite, and new-onset diabetes. Early detection is crucial for successful treatment.
Is pancreatitis treated with surgery?
Acute pancreatitis is primarily managed medically. Surgery is reserved for complications like infected pancreatic necrosis, pseudocysts causing symptoms, or if gallstones are causing pancreatitis. Chronic pancreatitis with ductal obstruction may benefit from drainage procedures.
What is the Whipple procedure?
The Whipple procedure (pancreaticoduodenectomy) removes the head of the pancreas, part of the small intestine, gallbladder, and bile duct. It is the main curative surgical option for pancreatic head cancer. Dr. Deuri is trained in this complex operation.
