- The type of operation performed for removal of pancreatic cancer is based on the location of the tumor. For tumors of the head and neck of the pancreas a Whipple procedure, (also called a pancreaticoduodenectomy) is performed. This is a complex operation perfected at Johns Hopkins. This video will explain the surgery and what patients can expect.

Pancreatic Cancer here...as well as my brother and first cousin. All of us diagnosed at aged 50...my brother being the only to have a Whipple...he went back to work after 3 months and is cancer free so far. My first cousin and I had the Tail...she was told that she was palliative because her tumor was wrapped around important vessels. She got a second opinion and is still alive and well. I had my surgery one year ago and just had my PET scan and all is clear! We are a miracle family so far!

Good
How i can communicated with u
what'sapp
To send to me the reports of your brother because I'm medical student
My brother won’t discuss it. He likes to put it in the past and move on. I’ve tried to get him to open up but he is a man of few words.

My niece was 9 years old when she under went this surgery. It saved her life. She is now 33.
Oh my! What was the reason she had it at 9 years old?
I’m a survivor of duodenal cancer - I had the Whipples procedure In Adelaide South Australia. There were complications, I went to surgery 3 times in one week, for bleeding. I was in hospital for 6 weeks. That was in 2012. I’m still cancer free, even though I was misdiagnosed for 9 months, initially. I had no chemo or radiotherapy. I’m a walking miracle because 22 lymph nodes surrounded the tumour and not one had cancer.6 years on, I’m living a normal life, eating a balanced, normal diet. Thank You God. 🙏
Juneeta Corrigan what symptoms did you have?
Ameen
@juneeta corrigan are you still living
You are blessed TURN TO ISLAM, READ QURAN..
I am happy for you ! Stay strong!
I am 10 years post Whipple procedure this March. I am 23 years old now, I am living a very healthy and prosperous life, and I am graduating from college in 6 months. I want to thank Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in New York City and my surgeons Dr. Middlesworth and Dr. Chabot for saving my life when I was 12 years old.
Wow. So young to suffer. I am really glad that you are ok ❤
I am a survivor of this procedure, a fourteen hour surgery with two weeks post-op in the ICU. Thank You, God, for so graciously blessing my life!!!
SusanJo0203 i think GOD would be happier if you’ve thanked the surgeon who did it for you😄
@@drantonyjasonaugustine1901 Surgeon get paid but God is not , Thanks to God
What are you doing to survive? How is your daily life going?
it was the surgeon, not god.
I am a operation assistant and I haven't seen God in a while in the operation room
My mom’s having the Whipple procedure tomorrow, I appreciate everyone who’s survived the procedure leaving their stories in the comments, it’s helping calm my nerves
Update: she’s doing well! She’s been home for a bit, starting to regain strength
7-8-2020 i had the classic Whipple.
Clean up chemo afterwards.
I'm doing great !
@@deborahharrell1778 She starts chemo next week. We’re very anxious, glad to hear you’re doing well!
How is you mom now any update .. my father is going to have this surgery in the coming week.
@@gyandeep987 how is ur dad
In 2006 I had a Whipple at Johns Hopkins Hospital performed by Dr. John Cameron, the narrater of this video. Dr. Cameron is a wonderful, kind gentleman that has performed more of these operations than anyone in the world. He teaches doctors from all over the world how to perform this procedure. The staff of Johns Hopkins is superior, from the doctor, nurses, all the way to the cleaning staff. My wife and I met so many great people there.
Thank you for all of the life saving you do at JH.
Thank you for your kind words.
@seansullivan1439 I had my Whipple across town at the UMD Med Center on 2 June 2015. Dr. Alexander, who was Dean of Surgical Oncology at the time, took my case.
This is the voice of professor john cameron the king of Whipple procedure,he did 1000 procedure during his career
2,000+
Does he still practice?
Danny Childers so pancreatic tumor is that common? Glad they can get help. Bless you all.
@@iganpparamarta8813 Pancreatic accounts for only about 3% of all cancers, with 4 to 7 tumor types (depending on source of medical information). However, due to it usually not being detected until late to too late, it is the number three cause of deaths by cancer in the USA.
It is estimated that me and about 149 other people were diagnosed on 14 May 2015. As of today, 28 December 2019, the class size may be as small as 30.
I am now 4 years, 7 months and 2 weeks post diagnosis, with no evidence of active disease since the Whipple on 2 June 2015.
@Indian kshatriya I was diagnosed with a Stage IB adenocarcinoma confined to the head of the pancreas, surrounding, but not infiltrating, the bile duct.
This surgery saved many lives, early diagnosis and treatment is key.
I'm now celebrating 8 years of survival after the Whipple Procedure performed by Dr. Ryan Holbrook, Spokane, WA, and I had a party to celebrate! I feel blessed. I had a great primary care doc, Dr. Jerry Lochner and a great surgeon plus so much support from friends and family. I did have chemo and radiation, which I said I would never do.
my mother was also wipple surgery after the operation how did you describe the process
Congrats Marlene, I too am a survivor of the Whipple Procedure, 20 years. We are both very lucky.
My friend Carol had the procedure today in Spokane. I am not sure of which Dr.....
After Whipple 8 years congrats! Get well soon :) which country is that? My father had whipple operation too on this january.He is 52 years old and taking chemotherapy.but not high level now..
Hi Marlene... can we survive whole life after whipple procedure
My dad is having his whipple done tomorrow I will thank you if all you guys prayed & yeah I hope everything goes well
mr33hell2 Can you update your experience?
Hows your dad?
Update?
My dad is going to have it done in about a week
i dont pray, i fuck god
Lost both my mum 2001 and dad 2013 from stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer, blessings to all who were able to benefit from this procedure, I've read a lot of material on the subject, it's definitely an organ with a total mind of it's own. Eat clean healthy foods, avoid processed and high sugary foods, and little Alcohol, papaya is extremely good as it contains an enzyme that can penetrate through and help it work well. Great video.
The same here. I lost my dad 2024 😢 He was from stage 4 pancreatic cancer too. I feel sorry for you🫂
I had the whipple procedure for ampullary tumour in February 2021. Mr Andreas Prachalias, my surgeon saved my life. He is a very skilled surgeon. Forever grateful to him and his team at King's college hospital London. My surgery lasted 9 hours due to my morbid obesity. I had the classic procedure. Had no water for 5 days !!!
hi Mary! This is very helpful and so thankful for your recovery! I am trying to research the best diet as my mom just got diagnosed and we are waiting to see what stage it currently is- can you tell me what your diet was like and has been like since? perhaps any advice you wish to share? I also invite anyone else that has advice on diet, coping, or recovery please reply! thank you so much everyone! every bit helps!
My father is getting a Whipple in less than a week and I stumbled here. Looks like a very complicated procedure, but seeing all the positive comments here is encouraging. Grateful that he was part of the 15-20% with pancreatic cancer who are even eligible for this procedure.
My wife is a 17 year survivor of the Classic Whipple.
hi Garry! This is very helpful and so thankful for your wife's recovery!

Dad had his Whipple done at Johns Hopkins about 2007. Highly recommended, Johns Hopkins are pros at this. Dad did extensive research before choosing Johns Hopkins and was very satisfied with his doctor and the staff. They treated us like family.
Dad still died but we had 2 more years life that he would not have had without the Whipple.
Thanks Johns Hopkins.
I am a Whipple survivor, had mine at Uni MD med center 2 June 2015. They performed the modified Whipple, where I kept all of my stomach and the pylorus valve. The point they make about jaundice being the first indicator is true, that's what led to my diagnosis of a tumor (Stage 1) in the head of the pancreas. It was found early enough that I qualified for surgery without needing chemo and/or radiation beforehand. There was no involvement of any other organs or blood vessels, though it had grown to Stage 2 in the 3 weeks between diagnosis and surgery. I dodged a huge bullet. My uncle died of PC in June 2008 (diagnosed at late Stage 4), have a 1st cousin from that side who is now a PC patient (Stage 3)...genetic testing showed I have a slightly elevated chance.
If you feel something is off, get to the doctor. I did, that's why I'm alive.
Hi, great to know you are doing well now. Btw, were you losing appetite before/during the jaundice? How about urine color and stool? Thanks! And once again, congratz for surviving this disease :)
Good afternoon;
I was not losing appetite, though I did lose a bit of weight, about 21 pounds up to the Whipple. Stool and urine color were part of the concerns that got me to go to my primary to find out what was occurring. My primary, and his supervisor, knew something was going on from the CT, ultrasound and blood work, but the local hospital was unable to provide the more extensive diagnostics (ERCP with biopsy) they decided I needed. That's how I go to UMMC from deep in southern Maryland.
Over the course of things, I lost a total of about 50 pounds, have gained back about 30. Have been able to eat much the same as I did before, just try to keep it in better balance and add more fiber to keep things moving.
Thanks for the sharing Anita, really apreciate it. I'm asking becos I recently have floating stools and urine with darker yellow (though it will return white if I drink alot water). I went to dr, liver kidney pancreas function test and cbc all normal so far. What was ur stool and urine color look like at that time?
Actually, it's me, Steven, who is the PC patient. Anita and I have a joint email account. :)
Dark urine, light stool...initial ultrasound showed something by the bile duct. I also developed jaundice; yellowing of the eyes and skin, itching all over, had no pain, though. The tumor was collapsing the bile duct. I had a procedure called an ERCP with biopsy, to insert a stent in the bile duct. The first one blocked and the biopsy was inconclusive. The second one, about 10 days later, worked real well and the biopsy was positive for a pancreatic tumor.
A CT scan will show there is something there. as will blood work. Only a biopsy can confirm.
It reads like you have a possible problem with the gall bladder, at a minimum. I'd ask for an abdominal CT scan.
Anita Steven oh, thank you Steven! You are very lucky to have a wife who always stay by your side through thick and thin. I will push this matter to the gastro Dr I hv an appointment with this 22nd Dec. I wish you all the best for your health and best of luck :)
This was the most clearly explained video I have found - my dad died of Pancreatic cancer, age age 62, pretty much 4 weeks to the day of his diagnosis, in Aug 1988… it is Dec 2023 and at almost age 62, I find myself w T-2 diabetes and CLL - chronic lymphatic leukemia… I’d really like to understand why pancreatic cancer remains so very difficult to identify prior to it essentially spreading outside the pancreas itself….
I am a Whipple survivor...Thanks to Dr. Sanket Mehta, one of the best oncologists in India...He is just divine!
How r u now
hi Madhuri! This is very helpful and so thankful for your recovery! I am trying to research the best diet as my mom just got diagnosed and we are waiting to see what stage it currently is- can you tell me what your diet was like and has been like since? perhaps any advice you wish to share? I also invite anyone else that has advice on diet, coping, or recovery please reply! thank you so much everyone! every bit helps!
@@cynthiaaileen Hello Cynthia, I hope this helps. Avoid sugar as cancer literally feeds on it. Avoid meat, you are allowed fish twice a week, Lots of green veggie juices such as kale celery, spinach and also beetroot juice, Lots of sprouted seeds such as mung, pumpkin, broccoli and any kinds of sprouts as these are considered foods that are living. Basically a vegan diet would really help.
I am a nursing student and this video gave me a thorough understanding of the procedure, including pre, intra and post procedural expections for both the patient and nurse. I appreciate this!!!
We appreciated the clear and concise explanation of this surgery.
I had a Whipple 3 years ago now. I am surely grateful to God and the surgeons who performed my surgery. EACH, Ft Bliss TX, February 2011...God bless you all!

Extremely helpful. I won't feel lost tomorrow when I see my first one done
Best explanation of the Whipple Procedure I've seen. Thank you ❤
Thank you for bringing it all together. The whipple procedure makes sense now!!!
Many thanks for clearly presenting the whole procedure in plain language
Very brief, informative, and easy to understand. Thank you for this video!
Irene Concepcion agreed. Simple and easy to understand video to explain what a Whipple procedure was.
In listening to and watching this description, I'm brought back many years to the first Whipple procedure that I ever saw. It was performed in Phila. but a great professor of surgery. He was a renaissance man in many ways and both meticulous and supremely skillful. I have never known or seen his technical better. That patient did well, was followed for years and seemed to have been cured.
I am a 20 year survivor, Dr. Michael Appel, Houston, TX. He saved my life.
I had a distal pancreatectomy performed by Dr. Cameron. I thank God first but I will never forget the life-saving care I received from Dr. Cameron, his colleagues and his staff. I was in palleative care due to an unresectable tumor. Dr. Cameron took it out! He is a blessing to the sick.
I’m glad to see people have successfully endured this surgery. I’m 51, have had a good life and would never go through this. When my number is up I’m ok with it.
I'm a surgeon and every word in this video is valuable
Perfect explanation. Thanks for good contents. This video really helped me to understand PPPD procedure.
A friend of mine has survived this operation. He was suffering of duodenum ulcer. Postoperative period was complicated, stenosis of anastomosis has been developed. Second operation lasted ten hours. Now, five years after operation he lost 20 kg of weight, his temperature often rises because of cholangitis.
Whipple surgery is One of the biggest surgery in human body....God bless all great 👍🏼
Thank you for an excellent summary! Helped me prepare for scouting for this surgery. 👍
10 years later and the video is still relevant. John Hopkins is a realm above
Awesome video!!!! So illustrative and the explanation was excellent!
A complete video for whipple's procedure ! thanks a lot
Hi
Great information video - easy to understand with the visual aids. Thank you!
This was Great!!! Thank you for this educational video! 🙏🏽
I had the whipple procedure on March 14th, 2023. No drainage tubes were placed the first time around. I endured some complications, needing a second operation (came out with 3 drainage tubes after this), intubation and a week in ICU. I thank God every day for preserving my life. I am 2 months post-op and still struggling with my appetite. I also have cramping after meals, but I think that’s due to pancreatic insufficient.
Trust your surgeons but trust God even more. It is possible.
Except when you or your loved one DOESN’T come through, like mine didn’t. I’m glad yours was a success, but you imply my aunt died because we didn’t trust God enough, and that’s not a good thing to lay on people.
Thank you for such a clear explanation.
My father had Whipple in 2018, diagnosed by the Jaundice symptoms. Thank God 🙏 for take care of my Dad. He is doing well and eat everything with no complications, but as Doctor said he always eat in 4 or 5 meals pattern.
.
Again Thank you 🙏 God.
How is ur dad now

My sister was diagnosed with PC stage 4, did chemo and radiation, and then the Whipple surgery. She had a hard time recovering, never got her appetite back, kept going to the er. She was told she was cancer free, so her doctor left her high, and dry. A year later she still couldn't feel better so I insisted they send her to a better hospital, she lived in a small town, by the time she got there she was brain dead and died the next day. Not a good experience. Miss her like crazy.
Beautiful presentation.
thanks for the vid mate. got my whipple in a few weeks. 36 yr old, feel fine, had 12 doses of chemo easy (5 hours on drip in chemo ward then 2 days home with chemo cd case attached ) once i got used to nosebleeds etc
cant wait ... they did mention something about a lazer pen !!! my doc seemed sooo excited talking about it. but what i got from the convo was it was still experimental and if they go into me and find its got close to that pesky blood veins again then then he may be able to have a play with his new toy, if not then its this whipple .. i thought i was out of action 6 months not 6 weeks so thanks again :)
much love , uk
Glad you enjoyed the video and that you are doing well after the procedure. Thanks for sharing with us uk!
Awesome video!! Thx a lot for this great explanation!
last year Oct. 2014 I was diagnosed with pancreatic head mass & had a Whipple's procedure in SPMC Davao City Philippines. they took me from my room at 6am & I returned 11pm. I am grateful to God he gave me a second chance of life. & to the surgeons who did my procedure ur so great. job well done doc..
+Pat ty If you think god gave you a second chance, then you must also recognize that he gave you cancer too. Did you thank him for that?
+elite76 hahahaha right!
+elite76 that is a really fucked up thing to say lol
Habsforthewin Is it though? Is it really? Why is it valid to attribute only the good in the world to god. If its your belief that this entity takes a direct role to affect the outcomes of regular people, then who are you to pick and choose which of those actions to assign to his hand?
If you say god healed you, then you must also say that god made you sick in the first place.
elite76 You definitely make a great point. It would be very hard to argue against that.
Thank you for this video.
Classic Whipple for stage 3A Pancreatic Cancer in June 2018. Adjuvant chemo(s) and radiation immediately after Whipple. Remained disease free one year. Back on chemo in 2021 with nodules in both lungs. Stage IV now, but still beating the odds against this vicious cancer.
I hope you are better, how are you?
@@arymhansie Thank-you. Still hanging in there. Still have lung nodules. Still on chemo. Still beating the odds. Now a four year survivor.
hope all is well@@-myal-8691
Praying for all those people who are having this procedure done. especially My Love .I pray for you ,send my love and deepest ,deepest heartfelt ,get well thoughts and please cover quickly so we can be together again in good health spirit and mind and body I love you baby with all my heart and soul and thank you to the doctor I pray for you and your family too Thank you so much!
You are really a child of God. Because you carry his love. Please pray for me. I am struggling with so many health problems and waiting for the surgery.

Wow…thats a gnarly surgery. I have to wonder how much this affects ADL’s and quality of life.
really helpful video!
thank you
Great video explanation!
My wife celebrated her 1st year of being cancer free November 2023 , amazing what modern medicine can do now, I'll pray for all of you tonight
Thank you for sharing this great informations.
Thank you for this video. I have a cousin receiving treatment at Lahey clinic in Burlington,MA. She was told that Lahey has one of the best Oncology units. So far her treatment has been a disaster. She is a candidate for the whipple surgery, and about to start five days of radiation. This past week she told me that "someone" at the hospital told her that even if she has the surgery, she will never be cured. It will come back quickly. I am enraged. She is now severely depressed and more than likely opting out of the surgery. Thank you for the information and your encouraging stories. I really hope I can use this information to reignite her optimism.
How is she?? Did she had the surgery?
How did it go?
Did your cousin ever have the whipple procedure? How did it go for her?
Been there done that, M D Anderson was my first move...10 years ago.... Doing fine now
Me too..20 year survivor here. St. Luke;s Hospital, Dr. Michael Appel.
Diagnosed with ampullary cancer this past april. Just had this surgery along with a total hysterectomy. Just got out the hospital 6/15/23.
Saved my life
I m at same boat
I am having this procedure in the nest few weeks. so scared but this makes it seem so straight forward.
Good luck. God bless
I had whipple Procedure performed on me back in 2012 due to pancreatic cancer.
It prolonged my life, but now I suffer from chronic pancreatitis, diabetes, and kidney failure.
I'm supposed to have this surgery in the next couple days.... do you know why your other organs are failing?
Sounds like my mom had the classic whipple. Her pancreas calcified and previous stent surgeries failed. She passed in 2012 about 3 years after her surgery, but I don’t believe she took very good care of herself.
My mother had this done last year at 82 years of age. Her surgery lasted 11 hours. What they didn't mention was that many have a feeding tube. Hers was a J-tube. Sadly she passed away the end of This Feb.
Lori Chapman: I know this was posted 6 years ago, but you hit a nerve that's giving my mother pause in going through the Whipple procedure. She is 73, very frail, 89 lbs, her survival on that 6 to 8 hours procedure is our concern. Thank you for sharing; God bless.
is more common to preserve the pyloric valve or to remove part of the stomach?
It is here. I have my biggest struggle. Mentally but more physical. I have to have this done. Trying to shrink it with chemo...2nd time around. I get tired alot and understand the chemo effects differenty each time. I am trying to find the words to say to all that shared your thoughts all of you.
Don't worry. Lots of people are praying for your health.
Great overview, thank you!
I had a classic Whipple in 2011 for duodenal cancer. Great explanation, but still wonder why they took so much of my stomach. I was lucky, stage 1 cancer, no chemo. I didn’t eat actual food for three weeks after surgery, but I did have a feeding tube for 3 months. Dr Morton Kahlenberg in San Antonio was my surgeon and oncologist. I’ll be on Creon enzymes for the rest of my life. Count my blessings every day. If it happened 30 years ago, I’d be dead.
Bless you Duane McCune
My OH is having this OP on Wednesday. Everything is crossed for him.

Salutare tuturor,
Imi puteti recomanda va rog un medic in Romania pentru aceasta operatie? Ati facut careva?
Va multumesc!
Thank you for this video :)
My partner went through this procedure 10 months ago, he was opened up twice, got Klebsiela Pneumonia and a Klebsiela Bed Sore (you can only get Klebsiela from the equipment used for the operation or in the hospital). Spent 7 or 8 days on a respirator, ended up with G and J tubes, and had his incision from side to side just below his rib cage, not up and down. A wound vac used on his incision and after that healed enough, on his bed sore, think he had the vac on one or the other for around 4 months He's only in his 50s, spent 2 months in the hospital and after 10 months, we still have home healthcare coming out because his incision has never fully healed. Never had cancer, but had calcification blocking the head of the pancreas. Caused from Pancreatitis, that he was told over and over again that he didn't have. He isn't or never was a drinker. This video makes the operation sound like a Walk In The Park, they just forgot to tell you that there is a mugger behind every bush! I have also found, to many people that have had my experience themselves or worse. My thoughts are with any person having to deal with this in anyway!
Jim, we are so sorry to hear about all that your partner has gone through.
Thank you for the thoughts, but I'm tired of being a Guinea pig and tired of my partner being the same! Neither one of us are normal, I have tried to do medical studies to help others and told I don't qualify, because of the spleen that I had removed in 1981, Then in 1985 I was told I would most likely be dead in a year, I finally got sick in 1997 and now am disabled by the mistakes that the doctors made treating me for one disease while blowing my complaints off for other issues, that have left me permanently disabled. My partner was diagnosed Epileptic and 30 some years of medications later with the damage they have done, its decided that he wasn't epileptic in the first place, he was just suffering from pseudo seizures, no medications needed, his Whipple was needed after the years of unnecessary medications. It should be easier to find a doctor that listens to their patients, if we had more of those we wouldn't be in this shape! I would say it's about 1 in 10 doctors that actually listen to their patients or actually looks at the charts that they have in their hands. Kinda goes along with my stint in the Navy Nuclear Program, the smarter you are the less likely you are to have any common sense and listen to others that might know something you don't!
What’s a partner?
The same exact thing happened to me and im on disability too. Mine started in 2003 and I was in my early 20s. I still suffer from pancreatitis on a very regular basis. I have exhausting pain and nausea every day. I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy !
I am sorry to hear this , I hope situations got better for you & you partner as well, wishing him a life long healthiness , I am also suffering Big Big time !!
I am sorry everyone, but I have to tell you this. Whipple surgery maybe the reason behind saving some ppl’s lives. But plz plz think twice before taking the risk. Ask multiple doctors make sure if there are any alternatives. I got to tell you this: My lovely father was completely healthy before this evil procedure. everything was normal until one day he had jaundice due to pancreatic cancer. Dr told us he had to undergo this procedure because it’s the only chance for survival. He underwent this procedure before 42 days. none a single day was fine !! since day 6 post operation he started to have deadly hemorrhage episodes and he was shockingly vomiting BLOOD !! he went for 2 other laparoscopy operations after that to fix the complications the dr had to remove the whole pancreas and spleen too in the second procedure !! !! not to mention the infection, peritonitis, frequent hiccups, lung infection, huge amounts of pus and fluids coming out from drains. the inability to eat anything , the leakage from abdomen as the anastomosis between stomach & intestine never healed , and finally after 42 days post damn whipple procedure my father is in COMA he doesn’t respond to us anymore !! I lost my precious father because of that hell evil procedure . I swear it was designed to make ppl suffer to death !!
Helpful. 😍 Thanks a lot
In case of acute pancreatitis with pancreaticolithiasis, is it imperative to do this whipples procedure?
I have to admit the only reason I came here is because i recently watched an episode of Good Doctor. The Whipple Procedure was one of the surgeries on the show . I was curious about the details of the procedures.
Back in 1986, They opened up my dad and told us it was too late. They could not go further. Any thoughts or experiences?
Wow ! No words!!
wow...good explanation...
amazing!
Thank you verry much
Wonderful video
excellent.
Can anybody tell me the source of the music at the start and end of this video?
My father had pancreatic cancer and have the Whipple surgery. He lived nine months that’s it. He died in 2007. I miss him every day. ❤🙏🏻
Which stage he had
Probably wont get a real answer however, Why is the stomach connected to a later portion of the duodenum after the procedure? Before the procedure its connected to the duodenum before the pancreas. So why reconnect it after or lower than the pancreas and the bile duct?
Amazing sir
excellent
thanks
How many years a man can live after whipple's procdure and hepatic bisegmenttectomy surjery.?...plz tell me...
