Hello
I had the standard Whipple to remove my small tumor and rewire my stomach and digestive tract.
Whipple is a partial removal of nearby stomach and pancreas tissue and of course gall bladder.
Partial is bad enough so as long as the existing cancer is removed I will wait to see when and where it might come back.
Hope that help!
