Summary

This study tests if inflating a small balloon in the stomach during surgery can prevent nausea, vomiting, and slow stomach emptying after pancreatic tumor removal. About 70 adults will be randomly assigned to get the balloon procedure or standard surgery. Researchers will track recovery to see if this simple step helps patients feel better and leave the hospital sooner.
