Ampullary Carcinoma, Distal Cholangiocarcinoma, Duodenal Adenocarcinoma
Conditions
Brief summary
This multicenter, randomized, controlled, non-inferiority trial will compare modified single-incision plus one-port laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (mSILPD+1) with conventional five-port laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (CLPD) in adults with histologically confirmed or highly suspected non-pancreatic periampullary carcinoma who are candidates for pancreaticoduodenectomy. A total of 232 participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio. Outcome assessors who adjudicate complications and interpret imaging will be masked to treatment assignment. The primary outcomes are all-cause mortality within 90 days after surgery and overall survival at 1 year after surgery. Secondary outcomes will assess postoperative complications, surgical performance, postoperative recovery, disease-free survival, quality of life, and health-care costs.
Interventions
A pancreaticoduodenectomy performed through a 60- to 80-mm periumbilical single-incision access platform containing three trocars, with one additional 12-mm laparoscopic port. Resection and reconstruction are performed according to the standardized multicenter operative protocol.
A conventional laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy performed using five trocar ports, followed by resection and reconstruction according to the standardized multicenter operative protocol.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Age 18 years or older and younger than 75 years. * Histopathologically confirmed non-pancreatic periampullary carcinoma, or a high clinical suspicion of non-pancreatic periampullary carcinoma when preoperative pathological confirmation is unavailable. * Determined by preoperative multidisciplinary team evaluation to require pancreaticoduodenectomy. * Able to understand and comply with study procedures. * Able and willing to provide written informed consent before any study-specific screening procedure. * Expected to benefit from therapeutic pancreaticoduodenectomy according to applicable clinical guidelines.
Exclusion criteria
* Distant metastasis, including peritoneal, hepatic, distant lymph node, or other organ metastasis. * Requirement for distal, central, or total pancreatectomy, or another palliative procedure. * Preoperative American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification of 4 or higher. * Concurrent malignancy other than the target cancer. * Pregnancy or breastfeeding. * Severe psychiatric disorder that would interfere with study participation. * Receipt of neoadjuvant chemotherapy or radiotherapy before surgery. * Vascular invasion requiring vascular resection, as determined by the multidisciplinary team based on preoperative abdominal imaging. * Body mass index greater than 35 kg/m². * Participation in another clinical trial within the previous 3 months.
