The pancreas is a vital organ in the gastrointestinal system, responsible for producing enzymes that aid in digestion and hormones like insulin that regulate blood sugar levels.
When are Pancreas Surgeries Needed?
Pancreatic surgeries are needed for conditions such as pancreatic cancer, pancreatitis, pancreatic cysts or tumors, chronic pancreatitis, and pancreatic duct obstructions, as these issues can severely impact the pancreas's ability to aid in digestion and regulate blood sugar.
