“…While it may be speculated that removal of acinar cells belonging to the exocrine portion of the pancreas could account for reductions in body/tissue mass accumulation, it has been reported previously that following 90% pancreatectomy the digestive function of the pancreas is well maintained [66][68]. Moreover, the reduction in body mass observed in our Px animals is consistent with the ∼20% reduction in mass observed in hyperglycemic Ins2 Akita +/− mice [14].…”

“…The pancreatic resection line directly affects pancreatic function, because it reflects the amount of resected pancreatic parenchyma. In our institution, an animal experiment using dogs revealed that diabetes mellitus due to pancreatectomy occurred frequently, especially when more than 70% pancreatectomy was performed in normal pancreas [20]. Additionally, we revealed that NAFLD occurred at a high rate: 87.5% of patients in whom the results of both the PFD test and immunoreactive insulin (IRI) level were less than 50% and 100 μU/ml in previous investigations [19].…”

“…In these reports, inadequate pancreatic exocrine function was suggested to be the main cause of de novo NAFLD after pancreaticoduodenectomy 13,15. However, others have suggested that the development of NAFLD after pancreaticoduodenectomy is caused by markedly impaired intestinal absorption, a gut barrier dysfunction with zinc deficiency,15,21,22 and a reduced serum apoB concentration, the latter of which impairs very-low-density lipoprotein secretion and leads to steatogenesis 15. Although, we did not check serum zinc levels and our case did not show steatorrhea or uncontrolled diabetes, we did administer multi-vitamins and the trace elements such as zinc and selenium to counterbalance any trace element deficiency and to maintain pancreatic enzyme levels from just after pancreaticoduodenectomy.…”
