Successful Use of Direct Splenic Vein Anastomosis to the Interposition Internal Jugular Vein Graft after Extended Pancreatoduodenectomy to Avoid Sinistral Portal Hypertension

We describe a case of a 19-year-old female who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy for solid pseudopapillary neoplasm with portal-superior mesenteric vein junction resection and splenic venous was anastomosed into the interposition graft. We here share our unique experience of using an interposition internal jugular vein graft for a long venous defect and diverging morbidity of sinistral portal hypertension.Gastrointest Tumors 2022;9:69 –73
