Background: Pancreatic anastomotic leakаgе is one of the most serious complications following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). The most significant riskfactors for pancreatic leakage are pancreatic texture, main pancreatic duct (MPD) size and anastomotic technique. Herewith we describe our technical modifications for single-layer pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) with a soft pancreas and nondilated MPD for reconstruction after PD. Methods: We report our early experience using this technique in 52 patients who underwent PD between May 2009 and December 2012. Results: Overall postoperative mortality rate was1.92%. Postoperative morbidity rate was 32.69%, with major complications occurring in three patients (5.77%). Pancreatic leak was diagnosed in sixpatients (11.54%). Three patients with pancreatic fistulae (PF) of Grades A and B were managed conservatively, whereas three other patients with PF of Grade C required relaparotomy. Conclusions: According to our early experience with this modified technique for PJ, usage of horizontal mattress sutures, “everting” of MPD and incorporation of its wall into a single layer pancreatic-enteric anastomosis result in a low pancreatic anastomotic leakagerate after PD. This technique for PJ with a soft pancreas and nondilated ductensures ideal preconditions for anastomosis healing. They consist of an excellent blood supply, an anatomical position with tension-free approximation and unobstructed pancreatic juice flow from the pancreas into the jejunal loop.

Does Immigration Promote the Investment of the Monopolistic Firm?

In the present paper, we examine the effect of increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth on the optimal timing of investment of a firm that has a monopolistic power over the labor market. It is revealed that when the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is more than a threshold level, increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth accelerates the optimal timing of firms’ investment and enhances the economic growth, even if the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is formulated by the geometric Brownian motion, which is in sharp contrast to the standard result that an increase in the uncertainty postpones the optimal timing. With an increase in the immigrants over the past ten years, workforces in the host countries have been growing significantly to the extent that the immigrants represent 70% of the increase in the workforce in Europe, and 47% in the United States as OECD indicates. In the present paper, we attempted to investigate the effect of increased uncertainty caused by the growi...

Education Policy Implementation: A Mechanism for Enhancing Primary Education Development in Zanzibar

Education is one of the fundamental rights of individuals; therefore, the government of a country needs to develop and strengthen educational policy and quality as well as to ensure that everyone has equal access to basic education. The improvement of access and quality of education in the world is becoming as an essential factor in development, whereas the basic education (primary school), is acknowledged as a foundation of the higher educational development for every country. To fulfill this goal, governments introduce several policies and procedures; however, it requires some reforms and participation from the politician, policymakers, and other stakeholders to re-examine educational policy so that it can lead to multiplication and betterment of the reforms. Educational reforms actually focus on accountability. A positive educational development and reform is very challenging and needs more effort and strategy on how to use and utilize the resources effectively as such it can achie...
