If the pancreas is removed, a condition known as total pancreatectomy, the body will lose its ability to produce insulin and other important digestive enzymes. This leads to Diabetes, requiring lifelong insulin therapy to manage blood sugar levels. Additionally, patients will need to take enzyme supplements to aid in digestion, as they can no longer properly break down food. Regular monitoring and adjustments to diet and medication will be essential for managing their health post-surgery.
