Core Tip	To date, it remains unclear how preoperative acute pancreatitis (PAP) affects the surgical management of periampullary tumors. We analyzed patients with periampullary tumors and concomitant PAP who were treated in a high-volume center. In the present study, we showed that PAP delays the resection of periampullary tumors and significantly increases the incidence of severe complications and lengthens the hospital stay following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). The study results suggest that PD could be safely performed in highly selective patients with PAP.
