This case report presents the first reported case of laparoscopic hepatopancreaticoduodenectomy (LHPD) for synchronous gallbladder cancer (GBC) and extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ECC). The study concludes that LHPD is a safe and feasible treatment option for selected cases of GBC or ECC.
Background Hepatopancreaticoduodenectomy (HPD) is one of the most complex procedures, and it is very rarely reported. Laparoscopic HPD (LHPD) is even rarer. To date, there are only 3 reports of LHPD for locally advanced gallbladder cancer (GBC) or extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ECC). This is the first report of LHPD for synchronous GBC and ECC. Case presentation A 75-year-old female patient complained of jaundice for 2 weeks without fever or abdominal pain. She was diagnosed with synchronous GBC and ECC. After a comprehensive preparation, she underwent a laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy and resection of hepatic segments of IVb and V, and her digestive tract reconstruction followed Child's methods. She was discharged on the 12th day postoperatively without pancreatic leakage, biliary leakage, or liver failure. Conclusions LHPD is safe and feasible for selected cases of GBCs or ECCs.
