Venous resection and reconstruction are common during pancreaticoduodenectomy due to pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Multiple treatment options have been offered for venous injury repair. In this regard, the present study used the peritoneum as a conduit for the superior mesenteric vein (SMV) reconstruction during colon cancer surgery. The case was a 55-year-old woman with colon adenocarcinoma. The SMV damage was 6 cm in length. The defect was replaced with peritoneal conduit derived from parietal peritoneum of the abdominal wall. Coalition and flow of the SMV were confirmed by contrast-enhanced computed tomography examinations. The patient had a good condition over the six-month follow-up period. Peritoneal conduit might be a promising choice for SMV defects in emergent conditions due to its availability and lower overall costs.
