Short-term outcomes of pancreatoduodenectomy in older individuals over a 9-year period using real-world data: A multilevel analysis based on a nationwide administrative database in Japan. JOURNAL OF HEPATO-BILIARY-PANCREATIC SCIENCES 2024; 31:262-272. [PMID: 38031900 DOI: 10.1002/jhbp.1396] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/03/2023] [Revised: 10/25/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to evaluate the short-term outcomes of pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) in older individuals. METHODS Data from the Japanese Diagnosis Procedure Combination database on 62 275 patients who underwent PD from 1 April 2012 to 31 March 2020 were analyzed. Patients were divided into five age groups: <70, 70-74, 75-79, 80-84, and ≥85 years. The associations between postoperative outcomes and age were investigated using multilevel analysis. The mean differences in length of hospital stay and cost were also compared. RESULTS The rate of PD in older individuals increased annually. Compared with the youngest age group (< 70 years), the incidence rate ratios for in-hospital mortality were 1.52 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.30-1.76), 2.07 (1.82-2.37), 2.29 (1.94-2.71), and 2.92 (2.20-3.87) in the 70-74, 75-79, 80-84, and ≥ 85-year-old age groups, respectively (all p < .001). Postoperative complications, length of postoperative hospital stay, and cost increased significantly with increasing age. CONCLUSIONS These real-world data emphasize the higher levels of morbidity, mortality, and cost in older patients. Careful attention should be paid when considering the indication for PD in older individuals.

Wang D, Wang Y, Dong X, Yu M, Cai H. The significance of preoperative neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio in predicting short-term complications and survival benefits of pancreaticoduodenectomy: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Am J Surg 2024; 229:76-82. [PMID: 38101977 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjsurg.2023.11.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2023] [Revised: 11/08/2023] [Accepted: 11/24/2023] [Indexed: 12/17/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The established association between the inflammatory marker, neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and both long-term surgical prognosis and short-term postoperative complications is well-recognized. However, its prognostic value in pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is yet to be ascertained. This meta-analysis investigates the prognostic relevance of preoperative NLR in PD patients. METHOD We systematically searched electronic databases to identify studies exploring the relationship between pre-treatment blood NLR levels and overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), and immediate postoperative complications in PD patients. Statistical evaluations, using RevMan 5.4 and Stata 12, focused on hazard ratios (HRs) and risk ratios (RRs). Additionally, subgroup analyses, publication bias tests, and sensitivity analyses were performed. RESULT Our analysis encompassed 18 retrospective studies, with NLR cutoff values ranging from 2 to 3.8. The meta-analysis revealed that PD patients with elevated NLR had diminished OS and DFS, evidenced by an HR of 1.35 (95% CI: 1.11-1.64, p = 0.003) and 1.62 (95% CI: 1.15-2.27, p = 0.005), respectively. Moreover, NLR emerged as an independent determinant of immediate postoperative complications, indicated by an OR of 1.91 (95% CI: 1.01-3.59, p = 0.013) and an HR of 2.15 (95% CI: 1.23-3.73, p < 0.01). CONCLUSION NLR serves as a significant prognostic indicator for both OS and DFS following PD and is a reliable predictor of postoperative complications. Preoperative Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) is a significant prognostic indicator for overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD).

Front Surg 2023; 10:1275432. [PMID: 38046103 PMCID: PMC10690825 DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2023.1275432] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/06/2023] [Indexed: 12/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Background This study aimed to validate the accuracy of the Preoperative Pancreatic Resection (PREPARE) risk score in pancreatic resection patients. Patients and methods This prospective study included 216 patients who underwent pancreatic resection between January 2015 and December 2018. All patients in our cohort with weight loss or lack of appetite received dietary advice and preoperative oral nutritional supplementation (600 kcal/day). Demographic, clinicopathological, operative, and postoperative data were collected prospectively. The PREPARE score and the predicted risk of major complications were computed for each patient. Differences in major postoperative complications were analyzed using a multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression model. The predicted and observed risks of major complications were tested using the C-statistic. Results The study included 216 patients [117 men (54.2%)] with a median age of 65.0 (30.0-83.0) years. The majority of patients were classified as American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA)' Physical Status score II (N = 164/216; 75.9%) and as "low risk" PREPARE score (N = 185/216; 85.6%) before the surgery. Only 4 (1.9%) patients were malnourished, with albumin levels of less than 3.5 g/dl. The most common type of pancreatic resection was a pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy (N = 122/216; 56.5%). Major morbidity and 30-day mortality rates were 11.1% and 1.9%, respectively. The type of surgical procedure (hazard ratio [HR]: 3.849; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.208-12.264) and ASA score (HR: 3.089; 95% CI: 1.067-8.947) were significantly associated with the incidence of major postoperative complications in multivariate analysis. The receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.657 for incremental values and 0.559 for risk categories, indicating a weak predictive model. Conclusion The results of the present study suggest that the PREPARE risk score has low accuracy in predicting the risk of major complications in patients with consistent preoperative nutritional support. This limits the use of PREPARE risk score in future preoperative clinical routines.

Abstract
Surgical wound dehiscence (SWD) is a serious complication-with a 40% estimated mortality rate-that occurs after surgical intervention. Since the implementation of advanced recovery protocols, the current global incidence of SWD is unknown. This systematic review and meta-analysis estimated the worldwide incidence of SWD and explored its associated factors in general surgical patients. Eligible full-text cross-sectional, cohort and observational studies in English, between 1 January 2010 to 23 April 2021, were retrieved from MEDLINE, CINAHL, EMBASE and the Cochrane Library. Data extraction and quality appraisal were undertaken independently by three reviewers. Random effects meta-analytic models were used in the presence of substantial inconsistency. Subgroup, meta-regression and sensitivity analyses were used to explore inconsistency. Publication bias was assessed using Hunter's plots and Egger's regression test. Of 2862 publications retrieved, 27 studies were included in the final analyses. Pooled data from 741,118 patients across 24 studies were meta-analysed. The 30-day cumulative incidence of SWD was 1% (95% Confidence Interval (CI): 1-1%). SWD incidence was highest in hepatobiliary surgery, at 3% (95% CI: 0-8%). Multivariable meta-regression showed SWD was significantly associated with duration of operation and reoperation (F=7.93 (2-10); p=0.009), explaining 58.2% of the variance. Most studies were retrospective, predated the agreed global definition for SWD and measured as a secondary outcome; thus, our results likely underestimate the scope of the problem. Wider uptake of the global definition will inform the SWD surveillance and improve the accuracy of reporting.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assesses the prevalence and severity of CAS in patients undergoing PD/total pancreatectomy and its association with major postoperative complications after PD. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA CAS may increase the risk of ischemic complications after PD. However, the prevalence of CAS and its relevance to major morbidity remain unknown. METHODS All patients with a preoperative computed tomography with arterial phase undergoing partial PD or TP between 2014 and 2017 were identified from a prospective database. CAS was assessed based on computed tomography and graded according to its severity: no stenosis (<30%), grade A (30%-<50%), grade B (50%-≤80%), and grade C (>80%). Postoperative complications were assessed and uni- and multivariable risk analyses were performed. RESULTS Of 989 patients, 273 (27.5%) had CAS: 177 (17.9%) with grade A, 83 (8.4%) with grade B, and 13 (1.3%) with grade C. Postoperative morbidity and 90-day mortality occurred in 278 (28.1%) patients and 41 (4.1%) patients, respectively. CAS was associated with clinically relevant pancreatic fistula ( P =0.019), liver perfusion failure ( P =0.003), gastric ischemia ( P =0.001), clinically relevant biliary leakage ( P =0.006), and intensive care unit ( P =0.016) and hospital stay ( P =0.001). Multivariable analyses confirmed grade B and C CAS as independent risk factors for liver perfusion failure; in addition, grade C CAS was an independent risk factor for clinically relevant pancreatic fistula and gastric complications. CONCLUSIONS CAS is common in patients undergoing PD. Higher grade of CAS is associated with an increased risk for clinically relevant complications, including liver perfusion failure and postoperative pancreatic fistula. Precise radiological assessment may help to identify CAS. Future studies should investigate measures to mitigate CAS-associated risks.

Surgical methods influence on the risk of anastomotic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy: a systematic review and network meta-analysis. Surg Endosc 2023; 37:3380-3397. [PMID: 36627536 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-022-09832-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2022] [Accepted: 12/16/2022] [Indexed: 01/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreaticoduodenectomy is the first choice surgical intervention for the radical treatment of pancreatic tumors. However, an anastomotic fistula is a common complication after pancreaticoduodenectomy with a high mortality rate. With the development of minimally invasive surgery, open pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD), laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD), and robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy (RPD) are gaining interest. But the impact of these surgical methods on the risk of anastomosis has not been confirmed. Therefore, we aimed to integrate relevant clinical studies and explore the effects of these three surgical methods on the occurrence of anastomotic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy. METHODS A systematic literature search was conducted for studies reporting the RPD, LPD, and OPD. Network meta-analysis of postoperative anastomotic fistula (Pancreatic fistula, biliary leakage, gastrointestinal fistula) was performed. RESULTS Sixty-five studies including 10,026 patients were included in the network meta-analysis. The rank of risk probability of pancreatic fistula for RPD (0.00) was better than LPD (0.37) and OPD (0.62). Thus, the analysis suggests the rank of risk of the postoperative pancreatic fistula for RPD, LPD, and OPD. The rank of risk probability for biliary leakage was similar for RPD (0.15) and LPD (0.15), and both were better than OPD (0.68). CONCLUSIONS This network meta-analysis provided ranking for three different types of pancreaticoduodenectomy. The RPD and LPD can effectively improve the quality of surgery and are safe as well as feasible for OPD.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS/AIMS Prehabilitation aims for preoperative optimisation to reduce postoperative complications. However, there is a paucity of data on its use in patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Thus, this study aims to evaluate the outcomes of a home-based outpatient prehabilitation program (PP) versus no-PP in patients undergoing PD. METHODS This retrospective cohort study compared patients who underwent PP versus no-PP before elective PD from January 2016 to December 2020. Inclusion criteria for PP were < 65 years or 65-74 years with FRAIL score < 3. No-PP included dietician, case manager and anesthesia review. PP included additional physiotherapy sessions, caregiver training and interim phone consultation. Univariate and multivariate analysis were used to evaluate length of stay (LOS), morbidity, 30-day readmission, and 90-day mortality. RESULTS Seventy-one patients (PP: n = 50 [70.4%]; no-PP: n = 21 [29.6%]) were included in this study. Median age was 65 years (interquartile range [IQR]: 58-72 years). Majority (n = 58 [81.7%]) of patients underwent open surgery. Ductal adenocarcinoma was the most common histology (49.3%). Patient demographics were comparable between both groups. Overall median LOS was 11.0 days (IQR: 8.0-17.0 days). Compared to no-PP, PP was not independently associated with reduced intra-abdominal collections (odds ratio [OR]: 0.43; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.03-6.11, p = 0.532), major morbidity (OR: 1.31; 95% CI: 0.09-19.47; p = 0.845) or 30-day readmission (OR: 3.16; 95% CI: 0.26-38.27; p = 0.365). There was one (1.4%) 30-day mortality. CONCLUSIONS Our outpatient PP with unsupervised exercise regimes did not improve postoperative outcomes following elective PD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Optimizing treatments balancing prognosis and therapeutic invasiveness is important in the management of pancreatic cancer (PC) owing to global ageing. This study aimed to verify the different utility of biomarkers by patients' age. MATERIALS & METHODS: This is a single-center, retrospective cohort analysis involving 160 patients who undertook pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) for PC. After comparing clinicopathological factors and survival after PD between aged (≥70 y/o) and young (<70 y/o) patients, we compared neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), controlling nutrition (CONUT) score, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19-9 as well as clinicopathological factors between long and short survivors in each group. We also performed Kaplan-Meyer analysis between patients stratified by biomarkers. RESULTS: Overall survival (OS) was significantly worse in aged patients (p = 0.002). In aged patients, CEA was significantly higher in short survivors. In young patients, CONUT score and CA19-9 were higher in short survivors. Kaplan-Meyer analysis showed that NLR and CEA stratified OS in aged patients, whereas CONUT score and CA19-9 could stratify OS in young patients. CONCLUSION: Our current results suggest that these biomarkers had different impact on survivals according to the patients' age.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is the most fearful complication after pancreatic surgery and can lead to severe postoperative complications such as surgical site infections, sepsis and bleeding. A previous study which identified cut-offs of drains amylase levels (DALs) determined on postoperative day (POD) 1 and POD3, was able to significantly predict POPF, abdominal collections and biliary fistulas, when related to specific findings detected at the abdominal computerized tomography (CT) scan routinely performed on POD3.
AIM To validate the cut-offs of DALs in POD1 and POD3, established during the previous study, to assess the risk of clinically relevant POPF and confirm the usefulness of abdominal CT scan on POD3 in patients at increased risk of abdominal collection.
METHODS The DALCUT trial is an interventional prospective study. All patients who will undergo pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) for periampullary neoplasms will be considered eligible. All patients will receive clinical staging and, if eligible for surgery, will undergo routine preoperative evaluation. After the PD, daily DALs will be evaluated from POD1. Drains removal and possible requirement of abdominal CT scans in POD3 will be managed on the basis of the outcome of DALs in the first three postoperative days.
RESULTS This prospective study could validate the role of DALs in the management of surgical drains and in assessing the risk or relevant complications after PD. Drains could be removed in POD3 in case of POD1 DALs < 666 U/L and POD3 DALs < 207 U/L. In case of POD3 DALs ≥ 252, abdominal CT scan will be performed in POD3 to identify abdominal collections ≥ 5 cm. In this latter category of patients, drains could be maintained beyond POD3.
CONCLUSION The results of this trial will contribute to a better knowledge of POPF and management of surgical drains.

Strategies and tactics to perform safe pancreaticoduodenectomy for 94-year-old patient: report of a case. Surg Case Rep 2022; 8:39. [PMID: 35244810 PMCID: PMC8897542 DOI: 10.1186/s40792-022-01395-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2022] [Accepted: 03/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Despite improvement of postoperative management, pancreatoduodenectomy still has a high rate of major complications. Therefore, careful assessment is critically important when we consider high risk surgery for extremely elderly patients. Case presentation A 94-year-old man, who suffered dark urine, epigastric pain, and loss of appetite, was diagnosed as bile duct cancer and underwent endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage. He has past history of hypertension and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Computed tomography (CT) showed a nodule in the lower bile duct, which was slowly enhanced by dynamic CT. The patient was evaluated whether he overcomes pancreatoduodenectomy by cardiac ultrasonography, brain magnetic resonance angiography, nutritional evaluation (rapid turnover proteins), and CT-based general assessment, including sarcopenia and osteopenia. The patient was independent in activities of daily living and has enough ejection fraction of 65%, and examinations revealed no impairment of cognitive function, sarcopenia, and osteopenia. With a diagnosis of bile duct cancer with no distant metastasis, the patient underwent subtotal stomach-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy with lymph node dissection. Operation time was 299 min and estimated blood loss was 100 ml. Pathological examination revealed papillary adenocarcinoma of the bile duct (pT3N1M0 Stage IIIB). Enteral nutrition was given through jejunostomy and then the patient started oral intake after an evaluation of swallowing function. Postoperative course was uneventful and all drains including pancreatic duct stent, biliary stent, and jejunostomy were removed by 3 weeks after operation. The levels of rapid turnover proteins dropped at postoperative day 7, but recovered at 1 month after operation via appropriate nutrition and rehabilitation. He remains well with no evidence of tumor recurrence as of 1 year after resection. Conclusions We herein report successfully treated cases of bile duct cancer in 94-year-old patient by pancreatoduodenectomy with careful evaluation of osteopenia, sarcopenia and nutrition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Failure to rescue (FTR) patients with postoperative complications contribute to a significant proportion of postoperative mortality. Our main objective was to determine the risk factors for FTR among patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy who suffered a life-threatening complication requiring intensive care unit (ICU) management. MATERIALS AND METHODS Consecutive patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy from 2011 to 2020 were reviewed retrospectively. Causes of organ failure were described as the one that most commonly contributed to patient's transfer to ICU or death. Two groups were created based on whether patients had FTR and risk factors for FTR were compared. The impact of baseline characteristics, operative characteristics, and risk scoring on FTR was analyzed using multiple logistic regression. RESULTS There were 19/58 (33%) FTR patients. Baseline, operative characteristics, postoperative complications, and length of hospital and ICU stay were similar between groups. However, a higher proportion of FTR patients experienced a postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) (16% vs 2.6%, P = .062). Among patients who experienced a POPF, the FTR group had a trend in delayed time from diagnosis to treatment (7 vs 23 hours, P=.131). Renal complications (OR 6.12, 95% CI, 1.23 to 38.43, P = .035) and time from POPF diagnosis to treatment (OR 1.05, 95% CI, 1.00 to 1.11, P = .036) were independent predictors of FTR by multivariable analysis. CONCLUSION The occurrence of certain postoperative complications such as renal complications as well as delayed timing of the management of POPF is predictive of FTR following pancreaticoduodenectomy, especially as delayed timing to treatment is a risk factor for FTR.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Pancreaticoduodenectomy is considered to be the most complicated operation in abdominal surgery. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) in elderly patients. We searched PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases for relevant studies that were published before June 2020. Seven cohort studies were eligible with 3200 patients. The result of meta-analysis showed that, for the elderly, severe complications, clinical pancreas fistula, and delayed gastric emptying in the LPD group were significantly lower than those in the open pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD) group. There was no significant difference in postoperative bleeding, reoperation, and readmission between the 2 groups. For the LPD, the mortality, delayed gastric emptying, and severe complication in elder patients were significantly higher than those in young patients. There was no significant difference in postoperative bleeding, R0 rate, reoperation rate, and readmission rate between the aged and the young. Therefore, LPD can reduce postoperative complications in elderly patients compared with OPD, which can be used as a potential alternative to OPD in elderly patients. However, laparoscopic approach cannot eliminate the high risk of postoperative death and severe complications caused by age. More high-quality studies need to be done for further verification.

Abstract
The length of hospital stay is an important outcome measure in patients who have undergone pancreaticoduodenectomy. Although postoperative complications are known to adversely affect the length of hospital stay (LOS), the influence of early mobilization on LOS has not been clarified yet. This study aimed to examine the impact of the initial ambulation day, which is one of the components of early mobilization, on LOS after pancreaticoduodenectomy. We retrospectively enrolled patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy between January 2013 and December 2017. Postoperative complications were evaluated using the Clavien-Dindo classification (CDC) system. Patients were divided into two groups based on the median LOS (early and late-discharge groups) and compared to determine their characteristics. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed with LOS as the dependent variable. Patients in the late-discharge group were significantly older, had an initial ambulation delay, and had higher rates of advanced disease stages and a CDC grade ≥ IIIa than those in the early discharge group. In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, CDC grade ≥ IIIa, initial ambulation day, and age were found to be significant independent factors associated with LOS. Our results demonstrated that not only postoperative complications, but also the initial ambulation day, could affect LOS after pancreaticoduodenectomy, emphasizing the importance of early ambulation for patients who undergo this surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The U.S. population is aging and projected to undergo an increasing number of general surgical procedures. However, recent trends in the frequency of major abdominal procedures in older adults are currently unknown as improvements in non-operative interventions may obviate the need for major surgery. Thus, we evaluated the trends of major abdominal surgical procedures in older adults in the United States. METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study using the National Inpatient Sample from 2002 to 2014 with trend analysis using National Cancer Institute's Joinpoint Trend Analysis Software. We identified the average annual percent change (AAPC) in the yearly frequency of major abdominal surgical procedures in older adults (≥50 years of age). RESULTS Our cohort included a total of 3,951,947 survey-weighted discharges that included a major abdominal surgery in adults ≥50 years of age between 2002 and 2014. Of these discharges, 2,529,507 (64.0%) were for elective abdominal surgeries, 2,062,835 (52.0%) were for female patients, and mean (SD) age was 61.4 (15.9) years. The frequency of major abdominal procedures (elective and emergent) decreased for adults aged 65-74 (AAPC: -1.43, -1.75, -1.11, p < 0.0001), 75-84 (AAPC: -2.75, -3.33, -2.16, p < 0.001), and ≥85 (AAPC: -4.07, -4.67, -3.47, p < 0.0001). The AAPC for elective procedures decreased for older adults aged 75-84 (AAPC = -1.65; -2.44, -0.85: p = 0.0001) and >85 (AAPC = -3.53; -4.57, -2.48: p < 0.0001). All age groups showed decreases in emergent procedures in 50-64 (AAPC = -1.76, -2.00, -1.52, p < 0.0001), 65-74 (AAPC = -3.59, -4.03, -3.14, p < 0.0001), 75-84 (AAPC = -3.90, -4.34, -3.46, p < 0.0001), ≥85 (AAPC = -4.58, -4.98, -4.17, p < 0.0001) age groups. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In this cohort of older adults, the frequency of emergent and elective major abdominal procedures in adults ≥65 years of age decreased with significant variation among individual procedure types. Future studies are needed to identify the generalizability of our findings to other surgical procedures.

Abstract
Background To assess the role of atrial fibrillation on perioperative outcomes in patients with pancreatic cancer undergoing open pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD). Methods We investigated patients with pancreatic cancer undergoing OPD during 2012-2014 within National Inpatient Sample database. The study population was divided into two groups based on the presence of atrial fibrillation. In-hospital mortality, length of stay, cost of hospitalization, and in-hospital complications were compared between the two groups. Logistic regression models and linear regression were used to adjust for potential confounders. Propensity score matching was also utilized. Results Of the 12,785 patients aged ≥18 years undergoing OPD during years 2012-2014, 11,469 (90%) had no atrial fibrillation and 1,316 (10%) had atrial fibrillation. Patients with atrial fibrillation were found to have significantly higher cost, but similar mortality and LOS compared to those without atrial fibrillation. The risk of gastrointestinal anastomotic leakage, cardiac complications, respiratory complications, pulmonary embolism, and perioperative shock were found to be significantly higher in atrial fibrillation group than non-atrial fibrillation group in both multivariate regression model and propensity score matching model. In older patients (>65 years), atrial fibrillation was found to be associated with a significantly higher cost, longer hospital stays, higher incidence of cardiac complications, respiratory complications, and postoperative shock, yet similar mortality. Conclusions Atrial fibrillation was found to be associated with higher cost in pancreatic cancer patients undergoing OPD, as well as increased occurrence of cardiac complications, respiratory complications, pulmonary embolism, and perioperative shock. Surgeons should pay special attention to patients with atrial fibrillation, and consider working together with cardiologists and anesthesiologists to jointly develop a management plan.

Abstract
Background The aim of this study was to identify a preoperative inflammatory marker with the most predictive value for postoperative complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). We then combined it with other perioperative variables to construct and validate a nomogram for complications after PD. Methods A total of 223 patients who received PD from January 2014 to July 2019 at a high-volume (>60 PDs/year) pancreatic centers in China were included in this retrospective study. All of the PDs were performed by the same surgeon who is beyond the learning curve with more than 100 PDs over the previous 3 years before 2014. 15 preoperative inflammatory markers were collected, including neutrophils, lymphocytes, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and lactic dehydrogenase. The inflammatory markers' predicting abilities for complications were analyzed by calculating the values of an area under the curve (AUC). The complications included surgical complications (such as pancreatic fistula, delayed gastric emptying and bile leakage) and medical complications (such as sepsis, pneumonia, urinary tract infection, acute heart failure and acute liver failure) in this study. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to investigate the perioperative features for independent risk factors for complications after PD. Nomograms with or without the most predictive inflammatory for complications were subsequently developed based on multivariable logistic regression using Akaike information criterion. Nomograms' performance was quantified and compared in terms of calibration and discrimination. We studied the utility of the nomograms using decision curve analysis. Results The albumin/ NLR score (ANS) exhibited the highest AUC value (0.616) for predicting postoperative complications. ANS and approach method were identified as independent risk factors for complications. The nomogram with ANS had higher C-index (0.725) and better calibration. The NRI compared between nomograms was 0.160 (95% CI: 0.023-0.296; P=0.022). By decision curve analysis, the model with ANS had higher clinical value. Conclusions The ANS is a useful predictor and an independent risk factor for postoperative complications after PD. The nomogram with ANS was constructed with better performance and more clinical benefit for predicting postoperative complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is still a major concern. The aim of this study was to propose how to choose antibiotics, based on bacterial sensitivity profiling involved in postoperative complications after PD. METHODS Two hundred and thirty patients underwent PD between 2008 and 2018 at Kumamoto University Hospital. We enrolled 121 patients who had both intraoperative bile culture and drain culture on postoperative day (POD) 3. The clinical impact of the bacterial profile on postoperative outcome was retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS Multivariate regression analysis revealed that intraperitoneal contamination on POD3 was independently associated with postoperative complications (odds ratio 2.62, P = .02). The bacteria in intraperitoneal drain on POD3 showed 94.9% similarity with those in bile collected during surgery. The major species were Enterococcus (44.6%) and Enterobacter (38.5%). Enterobacter species caused a higher rate of postoperative complications than others (83% vs 54%, P = .04). Three out of five Enterococcus faecium were resistant to carbapenems that were active against all Gram-negative rods. CONCLUSIONS Intraperitoneal contamination on POD3, which had similar bacterial species as bile collected during surgery, was correlated with postoperative complications. The bacterial antibiotic sensitivity profile may help selecting optimal antibiotics against infectious postoperative complications in PD.

Abstract
Background: Overweight and obesity are increasing year by year all over the world, and there is a correlation between overweight and obesity and the risk of pancreatic cancer. However, the relationship between overweight and obesity and perioperative outcomes of pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) was controversial. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of body mass index (BMI) on the perioperative outcome of PD. Methods: This study retrospectively evaluated 227 patients who underwent PD from 2015 to 2019. The patients were divided into three groups: underweight group (BMI <18.5 kg/m2), normal weight group (18.5 ≤ BMI <25 kg kg/m2), and overweight group (BMII ≥25 kg/m2). The association between different BMI groups and different perioperative results was discussed. Finally, the independent risk factors of clinically relevant-postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression. Results: The level of preoperative albumin was higher in patients of overweight group (P = .03). The incidence of hypertension increased gradually in the three BMI groups (P = . 039). The preoperative median CA19-9 level was significantly higher in the underweight group than that in the control groups (P = .001). The median operation time in the high BMI group was significantly longer than that in the other two groups. High BMI was an independent risk factor influencing CR-POPF after PD (P = .022, odds ratio 2.253, 95% confidence interval 1.123-4.518). Conclusions: Operation time of PD was increased in patients with high BMI. High BMI was an independent risk factor for the incidence of CR-POPF after PD. However, PD surgery is safe and feasible for patients with different BMI, and overweight and obese patients should not refuse PD surgery because of their BMI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of age on outcomes with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) undergoing laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD). METHODS We retrospectively collected clinical data of consecutive patients with PDAC undergoing LPD from January 2012 to April 2019. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to age at admission for LPD: younger than 70 and 70 years or older. RESULTS A total of 147 patients were included (<70 years, n = 96; ≥70 years, n = 51). The elderly LPD patients had lower serum albumin levels (mean, 37.9 [standard deviation, 4.8] g/L vs 40.7 [standard deviation, 6.8] g/L, P = 0.004) and a larger frequency of comorbidities (62.7% vs 36.5%, P = 0.002) than younger patients. The short-term outcomes showed no significant differences. The median overall survival time of the younger patients was not significantly greater than that of the elderly patients (20.0 [95% confidence interval, 16.1-23.9] months vs 19.0 [95% confidence interval, 13.8-24.2] months, P = 0.902). CONCLUSIONS The short- and long-term outcomes of elderly patients with PDAC after LPD were similar to those of younger patients, despite a higher prevalence of multiple chronic illnesses and poorer nutritional conditioning among the elderly patients. These results show that LPD can be applied safely to elderly patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy (RPD) has gradually been accepted as it has overcome some of the limitations of laparoscopic surgery. Outcomes following RPD in elderly patients are still uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and feasibility of RPD in elderly patients. METHODS The demographics and perioperative outcomes of a consecutive series of patients who underwent RPD between January 2018 and September 2019, were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into 2 groups: elderly patients (≥75 years) and younger patients (<75 years). RESULTS Of 431 patients who were included in this study, 77 were elderly patients and 354 were younger patients. Elderly patients had a significantly higher ASA score than younger patients (P < 0.001). There were no significant differences in operative time, estimated blood loss and blood transfusion rate between groups (P > 0.05). Elderly patients had significantly higher morbidity and longer postoperative hospital stay than younger patients (49.3% vs. 31.1%, P = 0.002; 22.8 vs. 13.3 days, P < 0.001, respectively). However, the reoperation, 90-day readmission and mortality rates were comparable in the two groups (P > 0.05). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that a higher ASA score was the only independent factor for postoperative morbidity (OR 2.02, 95% CI 1.06-3.88, P = 0.03), while old age was not (OR 0.81, 95% CI 0.36-1.81, P = 0.80). CONCLUSION This study demonstrated that RDP was safe and feasible in elderly patients. Age should not be a contraindication to RPD. Elderly patients with careful patient selection should be considered for RPD.

Abstract
Background Propensity score-matched analyses comparing the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) to open pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD) that consider the effect of the learning curve for LPD are lacking. We use Propensity score-matched to compare the safety and efficacy of LPD during the learning curve to OPD. Methods The medical records of 296 consecutive patients who had undergone LPD or OPD between September 2016 and August 2019 at Fujian Provincial Hospital were retrospectively reviewed. Patients treated with LPD were matched 1:1 to those treated with OPD. Calculation of propensity scores considered age, gender, body mass index (BMI), tumor location, pathology, incidence of obstructive jaundice, incidence of biliary drainage, pancreatic texture, pancreatic duct diameter, previous abdominal surgery, comorbidities, and case distribution of the surgical team. Results After propensity score matching, 196 patients were divided into two groups: 98 patients in the LPD group and 98 patients in the OPD group. LPD performed during the learning curve was associated with a longer median operative time (OT) (432 vs. 328 min, P<0.001), a higher incidence of major surgery-associated complications (32.7% vs. 14.3%, P=0.002), a higher incidence of clinically relevant pancreatic fistula (27.6% vs. 13.3%, P=0.013), and prolonged LOS (21.06 d vs. 16.94 d, P=0.033), but lower median intraoperative blood loss (200 vs. 300 mL, P<0.001) compared to OPD. Mean OT and LOS were significantly shorter in the late phase of the learning curve for LPD (P<0.001), and were similar to that for OPD. Age >60 years and a non-dilated MPD were significant predictors of clinically relevant pancreatic fistula, major surgery-associated complications, prolonged LOS and postoperative mortality at 90 days (all P<0.05). Conclusions OT, incidence of major surgery-associated complications, and LOS were significantly increased in patients that underwent LPD, but were significantly improved during the learning curve. Elderly patients and patients with a non-dialated MPD should not be treated with LPD performed by inexperienced surgeons.

Abstract
The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy (LPD) is safe and feasible for elderly patients. From December 2015 to January 2019, 142 LPD surgeries and 93 OPD surgeries were performed by the same surgeon in the third affiliated hospital of Soochow University. After applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, we retrospectively collected the date of three defined groups: LPD aged < 70 years (group I, 84 patients), LPD aged ≥ 70 years (group II, 56 patients) and OPD aged ≥ 70 years (group III, 28 patients). Baseline characteristics and short-term surgical outcomes of group I and group II, group II and group III were compared. Totally, 168 patients were included in this study; 100 cases were men; 68 cases were women; mean age was 67.9 ± 9.5 years. LPD does not perform as well in elderly as it does in non-elderly patients in terms of intraoperative blood loss (300.0 (200.0-500.0) ml vs. 200.0 (100.0-300.0) ml, p = 0.003), proportion of intraoperative transfusion (17.9% vs. 6.0%, p = 0.026) and time to oral intake (5.0 (4.0-7.0) day vs. 5.0 (3.0-6.0) day, p = 0.036). Operative time, conversion rate, postoperative stay, and proportion of reoperation, Clavien-Dindo classification, 30-day readmission and 90-day mortality were similar in two groups. In elderly patients, when compared with OPD, LPD had the advantage of shorter time to start oral intake (5.0 (4.0-7.0) day vs. 7.0 (5.0-11.3) day, p = 0.005) but the disadvantage of longer operative time (380.0 (306.3-447.5) min vs. 292.5 (255.0-342.5) min, p < 0.001) and higher hospitalization cost (12447.3 (10,189.7-15,340.0) euros vs. 7251.9 (8994.0-11,717.4) euros, p < 0.001). There was no difference between the two groups in terms of postoperative stay, and proportion of reoperation, Clavien-Dindo classification, 30-day readmission and 90-day mortality. LPD is safe and feasible for elderly people, but we need to consider its high cost and long operative time over OPD.
