A couple questions relating to pancreas
Subject: A couple questions relating to pancreas
This is a patient with advanced pancreatic cancer. Here's the part I'm having trouble with. He was admitted to the hospital. "The patient did undergo attempts at [s/l ESRT or "e ester tee"?]. However, the tumor was protruding through the duodenum [s/l ambule] and common bile duct cannot be cannulated. He was determined to be unresectable and underwent a choledochojejunostomy, gastrojejunostomy, and enteroenterostomy for diversion." Whew! Any ideas?

Can't make out this word. Sounds like ace-ee-iss with the stress on ace. Here's the whole sentence. "A CT of the abdomen with contrast revealed nodular [ace-ee-iss?] entry into the head of the pancreas and the omental fat, which was felt to represent adenopathy or recurrent tumor." Any ideas? Thanks!
