Procedure Details

The pancreas is a gastrointestinal organ that is found in the abdomen. It is responsible for transforming the food we ingest into energy for our body cells. The exocrine digesting and endocrine blood sugar management are the pancreas’ two main jobs. The pancreas is located on the upper left abdomen, behind the stomach. Other organs such as the small intestine, liver, and spleen surround it. It’s spongy, roughly six to ten inches long, and shaped like a flat pear or a fish with a horizontally stretched tail. The head of the pancreas, which is the wide section, is positioned toward the center of the abdomen. At the point where the stomach meets the first part of the small intestine, the pancreas’ head is found. The pancreas releases digestion enzymes into these contents after the stomach empties partially digested food into the intestine
