N2  - A replaced right hepatic artery (RHA) is the most common anatomical variation in pancreatic surgery. The RHA is frequently encountered and can be problematic in pancreatic carcinoma. The preservation of the RHA is necessary to avoid ischemic complications but can impact margins resection in pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). We report a case of a 53-year-old man with a head pancreatic carcinoma. There was a close contact between the tumor and the RHA arising from superior mesenteric artery (SMA). Preoperative embolization of the RHA was performed prior to PD.
