Abstract

A 78 year-old man was diagnosed as a pancreatic cancer in department of gastroenterology in our hospital. Enhanced computed tomography demonstrated an aberrant right hepatic artery(ARHA)arising from superior mesenteric artery(SMA). We conducted sub-stomach preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy(SSPPD- II A-1). As the preoperative diagnosis, right hepatic artery(RHA)was arising from SMA and running through the tumor, and we resected the ARHA with the tumor and reconstructed RHA to gastroduodenal artery(GDA). Pathological diagnosis was non invasive tumor with neither lymph node metastasis nor invasion of the vasculature. We report a case of the patient underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy with reconstruction of aberrant right hepatic artery.
