Core Tip	More techniques for preventing postoperative pancreatic juice leakage have been required since the use of GIA stapler has increased. We describe one successful case wherein our new technique of invaginating the cut end of the pancreas into the stomach was used to prevent a pancreatic fistula (PF) from occurring. A 50-year-old woman with pancreatic cancer in the tail of the pancreas underwent distal pancreatectomy. Although a grade A PF was noted, the patient was discharged on foot on the eleventh postoperative day. Our technique may be a suitable method for patients with a pancreatic body and tail tumor.
