Whipple Procedure Dhaka

Whipple procedure (pancreaticoduodenectomy) in Dhaka — advanced surgery for pancreatic cancer and periampullary tumors by Dr. Murshidul Arefin, fellowship-trained hepatobiliary surgeon. This procedure is tailored to each patient's anatomy and disease stage, ensuring the best possible outcome with minimal complications.

Dr. Arefin evaluates every case with advanced imaging including CT, MRI, and ultrasound to plan the safest surgical approach.

• Pancreatic cancer and periampullary tumours
• Chronic pancreatitis with duct obstruction
• Pancreatic cysts and pseudocysts
• Necrotizing pancreatitis requiring debridement

Dr. Arefin employs both minimally invasive (laparoscopic) and open surgical techniques depending on the complexity of the case and patient factors.

Keyhole surgery offers faster recovery, less pain, and smaller scars when appropriate. For advanced cases, open surgery provides the exposure needed for safe completion.

Recovery times vary based on the procedure and patient health. Most patients stay in hospital for 2–7 days and return to normal activities within 2–6 weeks.

Dr. Arefin provides structured follow-up with regular assessments, imaging surveillance when needed, and clear guidance on diet, activity, and medication. Contact his chamber to discuss your personalised recovery plan.
