Abstract
PURPOSE Quality of life (QoL) is temporarily compromised after pancreatic surgery, but no evidence for a negative impact of postoperative complications on QoL has been provided thus far. Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is one of the most common complications after pancreatic surgery and is associated with a high level of distress. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyse the influence of DGE on QoL. METHODS This single-centre retrospective study analysed QoL after partial duodenopancreatectomy (PD) via the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer core questionnaire (QLQ-C30). The QoL of patients with and without postoperative DGE was compared. RESULTS Between 2010 and 2022, 251 patients were included, 85 of whom developed DGE (34%). Within the first postoperative year, compared to patients without DGE, those with DGE had a significantly reduced QoL, by 9.0 points (95% CI: -13.0 to -5.1, p < 0.001). Specifically, physical and psychosocial functioning (p = 0.020) decreased significantly, and patients with DGE suffered significantly more from fatigue (p = 0.010) and appetite loss (p = 0.017) than patients without DGE. After the first postoperative year, there were no significant differences in QoL or symptom scores between patients with DGE and those without DGE. CONCLUSION Patients who developed DGE reported a significantly reduced QoL and reduced physical and psychosocial functioning within the first year after partial pancreatoduodenectomy compared to patients without DGE.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is one of the most common complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). DGE represents impaired gastric motility without significant mechanical obstruction and is associated with an increased length of hospital stay, increased healthcare costs, and a high readmission rate. We reviewed published studies on various technical modifications to reduce the incidence of DGE. DATA SOURCES Studies were identified by searching PubMed for relevant articles published up to December 2022. The following search terms were used: "pancreaticoduodenectomy", "pancreaticojejunostomy", "pancreaticogastrostomy", "gastric emptying", "gastroparesis" and "postoperative complications". The search was limited to English publications. Additional articles were identified by a manual search of references from key articles. RESULTS In recent years, various surgical procedures and techniques have been explored to reduce the incidence of DGE. Pyloric resection, Billroth II reconstruction, Braun's enteroenterostomy, and antecolic reconstruction may be associated with a decreased incidence of DGE, but more high-powered studies are needed in the future. Neither laparoscopic nor robotic surgery has demonstrated superiority in preventing DGE, and the use of staplers is controversial regarding whether they can reduce the incidence of DGE. CONCLUSIONS Despite many innovations in surgical techniques, there is no surgical procedure that is superior to others to reduce DGE. Further larger prospective randomized studies are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) remains one of the major complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), with discrepant reports of its contributing factors. This study aimed to develop a nomogram to identify potential predictors and predict the probability of DGE after PD. METHODS This retrospective study enrolled 422 consecutive patients who underwent PD from January 2019 to December 2021 at our institution. The LASSO algorithm and multivariate logistic regression were performed to identify independent risk and protective factors associated with clinically relevant delayed gastric emptying (CR-DGE). A nomogram was established based on the selected variables. Then, the calibration curve, ROC curve, decision curve analysis (DCA), and clinical impact curve (CIC) were applied to evaluate the predictive performance of our model. Finally, an independent cohort of 45 consecutive patients from January 2022 to March 2022 was enrolled to further validate the nomogram. RESULTS Among 422 patients, CR-DGE occurred in 94 patients (22.2%). A previous history of chronic gastropathy, intraoperative plasma transfusion ≥ 400 ml, end-to-side gastrointestinal anastomosis, intra-abdominal infection, incisional infection, and clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) were identified as risk predictors. Minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy (MIPD) was demonstrated to be a protective predictor of CR-DGE. The areas under the curve (AUCs) were 0.768 (95% CI, 0.706-0.830) in the development cohort, 0.766 (95% CI, 0.671-0.861) in the validation cohort, and 0.787 (95% CI, 0.633-0.940) in the independent cohort. Then, we built a simplified scale based on our nomogram for risk stratification. CONCLUSIONS Our study identified seven predictors and constructed a validated nomogram that effectively predicted CR-DGE for patients who underwent PD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Despite advances in achieving low mortality rates with pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), morbidity remains high. A key contributor to this morbidity is delayed gastric emptying (DGE) occurring with an incidence of up to 30%. The utility of a Braun enteroenterostomy (BE) appears promising to reducing the incidence of DGE, but current research is not definitive. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This project will be designed as a prospective multicentre randomised controlled blinded study to assess how BE effects the rate of DGE after PD in the setting of malignancy, within Australia-with blinding of patients, outcome assessors and data analysts. Patients will be randomly assigned to PD with Billroth II reconstruction with BE versus PD with Billroth II reconstruction without BE. The primary outcome is the incidence of DGE as defined by the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery. Secondary outcomes will include length of hospital stay, postoperative pancreatic fistula incidence, development of major complications (Clavien-Dindo≥3 a), quality of life and 90-day mortality.The study will be powered at 80% to detect a reduction in DGE rate from 30% to 15%, requiring a total of 264 study participants. An interim analysis will be performed once a total of 104 study participants have been recruited at which point the study will be able to detect reduction in DGE from 30% to 10% with 80% power. Statistical analysis will be done with intention-to-treat principles. The proportion of patients suffering DGE will be compared between treatment arms using a χ2 test, with p values used to represent statistical significance. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The study has been ethically approved by the Hunter New England Human Research Ethics Committee (2021/ETH11939), with results disseminated through presentation and publication. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER CTRN12622000048785.

Does the addition of Braun anastomosis to Billroth II reconstruction on laparoscopic-assisted distal gastrectomy benefit patients? World J Gastrointest Oncol 2022; 14:1141-1147.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Operation is the primary therapeutic option for patients with distal gastrectomy. Braun anastomosis is usually performed after Billroth II reconstruction, which is wildly applied on distal gastrectomy because it is believed to benefit patients. However, studies are needed to confirm that.
AIM To identify whether the addition of Braun anastomosis to Billroth II reconstruction on laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy benefits patients.
METHODS A total of 143 patients with gastric cancer underwent laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy at Centre 1 of PLA general hospital between January 2015 and December 2019. Clinical data of the patients were collected, and 93 of the 143 patients were followed up. These 93 patients were divided into two groups: Group 1 (Billroth II reconstruction, 33 patients); and Group 2 (Billroth II reconstruction combined with Braun anastomosis, 60 patients). Postoperative complication follow-up data and relevant clinical data were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS There were no significant differences between Group 1 and Group 2 in postoperative complications (6.1% vs 6.7%, P = 0.679), anal exhaust time or blood loss. The follow-up prevalence of reflux gastritis indicated no significant difference between Group 1 and Group 2 (68.2% vs 51.7%, P = 0.109). The follow-up European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core-30 scores revealed no evident difference between Group 1 and Group 2 as well. Group 1 had a shorter operating time than Group 2 on average (234.6 min vs 262.0 min, P = 0.017).
CONCLUSION Combined with Billroth II reconstruction, Braun anastomosis has been applied due to its ability to reduce the prevalence of reflux gastritis. Whereas in this study, the prevalence of reflux gastritis showed no significant difference, leading to a conclusion that under the circumstance of Braun anastomosis costing more time and more money, simple Billroth II reconstruction should be widely applied.

Abstract
Objectives Although laparoscopic distal gastrectomy has been widely used for distal
gastric cancer, the best functional reconstruction type has not yet been
established. Based on previous experience, we propose a modified uncut
Roux-en-Y anastomosis. This study aimed to compare the outcomes of different
intracorporeal anastomoses after laparoscopic distal gastrectomy. Methods From April 2015 to August 2020, the data of 215 patients who underwent
laparoscopic distal gastrectomy was collected. The patients were divided
into 4 groups according to the digestive tract reconstruction method,
Billroth-I, Billroth-II, Roux-en-Y, and the modified uncut Roux-en-Y.
Clinicopathologic characteristics, surgery details, short-term outcomes, and
postoperative nutritional status were analyzed. Results The operation time of Billroth-I anastomosis was significantly shorter (216.2
± 25.8 min, P < .001) than that of other methods. There was no difference
in postoperative complications and OS among the 4 reconstruction methods.
The incidences of esophagitis, gastritis, and bile reflux were significantly
lower in the Roux-en-Y and uncut Roux-en-Y group (P < .001) 1 year after
surgery. And the postoperative albumin and PNI levels in uncut Roux-en-Y
group were higher than those in other groups(P < .05). On multivariate
analysis, age and reconstruction type were independently related to
esophagitis, gastritis, and bile reflux. Serum albumin and the prognostic
nutritional index were significantly higher in the uncut Roux-en-Y group
than other groups (P < .05). Conclusions All 4 reconstruction techniques are feasible and safe. The Roux-en-Y and
uncut Roux-en-Y are superior to Billroth-Ⅰ and Billroth-Ⅱ+Braun in terms of
reflux esophagitis, gastritis, and bile reflux. Uncut Roux-en-Y may result
in better PNI than the others.

Abstract
PURPOSE The single anastomosis sleeve ileal bypass (SASI) procedure is a simple modification of the Roux-en-Y transit bipartition (RYTB) procedure; however, SASI risks patients with possible biliary reflux. Braun anastomosis has been proposed to fix the biliary reflux of single anastomosis procedures. This study presented our early "sleeve gastrectomy with Braun anastomosis Transit Bipartition" (B-TB) outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients who underwent B-TB or RYTB between June 2020 and April 2021 at our hospital and have completed three months follow-up were included in this study. RESULTS Ten patients with B-TB and forty patients with RYTB were included. No significant differences were observed between the B-TB and RYTB patients regarding the preoperative conditions. The B-TB procedure had significantly shorter operation time and postoperative hospitalization time than the RYTB procedure. There was no significant difference between the two groups regarding the 3-month percentage of total weight loss (B-TB vs RYTB: 19.7 ± 2.7% vs 22.2 ± 5.4%) and the postoperative complications before discharge. Preoperatively, two patients and eight patients achieved GERD-Q score ≥8 for the B-TB and RYTB group, respectively. At postoperative 3 months, those with GERD-Q score ≥8 was reduced to one patient and two patients for the B-TB and RYTB group, respectively. No patients have reported symptoms of greenish-yellow vomiting in both groups postoperatively. CONCLUSION B-TB is an exciting procedure with potential benefits. However, as it is an investigational procedure, extra care should be maintained. Larger samples and more extended follow-up data are needed in the future.

Abstract
Introduction Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is frequent after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Several RCTs have explored operative strategies to minimize DGE, however, the optimal combination of gastric resection approach, anastomotic route, configuration and the use of enteroenterostomy remains unclear. Methods MEDLINE, Embase and CENTRAL databases were systematically searched for RCTs comparing gastric resection (classic Whipple, pylorus-resecting, pylorus-preserving), anastomotic route (antecolic, retrocolic), configuration (loop gastroenterostomy/Billroth II, Roux-en-Y), and use of enteroenterostomy (Braun). A random-effects, Bayesian network meta-analysis with non-informative priors was conducted to determine the optimal combination of approaches to PD for minimizing DGE. Results Twenty-four RCTs, including 2526 patients and 14 approaches were included. There was some heterogeneity, although inconsistency was low. The overall incidence of DGE was 25.6 per cent (647 patients). Pylorus-resecting, antecolic, Billroth II with Braun enteroenterostomy was associated with the lowest rates of DGE and ranked the best in 35 per cent of comparisons. Classic Whipple, retrocolic, Billroth II with Braun ranked the worst for DGE in 32 per cent of comparisons. Pairwise meta-analysis of retrocolic versus antecolic route for gastrojejunostomy found increased risk of DGE with the retrocolic route (odds ratio 2.10, 95 per cent credibility interval (cr.i.) 0.92 to 4.70). Pairwise meta-analysis of enteroenterostomy found a trend towards lower DGE rates when this was used (odds ratio 1.90, 95 per cent cr.i. 0.92 to 3.90). Having a Braun enteroenterostomy ranked the best in 96 per cent of comparisons. Conclusion Based on existing RCT evidence, a pylorus-resecting, antecolic, Billroth II with Braun enteroenterostomy seems to be associated with the lowest rates of DGE.

Mortality and postoperative complications after different types of surgical reconstruction following pancreaticoduodenectomy-a systematic review with meta-analysis. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2019; 404:141-157. [PMID: 30820662 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-019-01762-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2018] [Accepted: 02/06/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreaticoduodenectomy/PD is a technically demanding pancreatic resection. Options of surgical reconstruction include (1) the child reconstruction defined as pancreatojejunostomy/PJ followed by hepaticojejunostomy/HJ and the gastrojejunostomy/GJ "the standard/s-Child," (2) the s-child reconstruction with an additional Braun enteroenterostomy "BE-Child," or (3) Isolated-Roux-En-Y-pancreaticojejunostomy "Iso-Roux-En-Y," in which the pancreas anastomosis is reconstructed in a separate loop after the GJ. Yet, the impact of these reconstruction methods on patients' outcome has not been sufficiently compared in a systematic manner. METHODS A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted according to the Preferred-Reporting-Items-for-Systematic-review-and-Meta-Analysis/PRISMA-guidelines by screening Pubmed/Medline, Scopus, Cochrane Library and Web-of-Science. Articles meeting predefined criteria were extracted and meta-analysis was performed. RESULTS Nineteen studies were identified comparing BE-Child or Isolated-Roux-En-Y vs. s-Child. Compared to s-Child neither BE-Child (p = 0.43) nor Iso-Roux-En-Y (p = 0.94) displayed an impact on postoperative mortality, whereas BE-Child showed less postoperative complications (p = 0.02). BE-Child (p = 0.15) and Iso-Roux-En-Y (p = 0.61) did not affect postoperative pancreatic fistula/POPF in general, but BE-Child was associated with a decrease of clinically relevant POPF (p = 0.005), clinically relevant delayed gastric emptying/DGE B/C (p = 0.004), bile leaks (p = 0.01), and hospital stay (p = 0.06). BE-Child entailed also an increased operation time (p = 0.0002) with no impact on DGE A/B/C, hemorrhage, surgical site infections and pulmonary complications. CONCLUSION BE-Child is associated with a decreased risk for postoperative complications, particularly a decreased risk for clinically relevant DGE, POPF, and bile leaks, whereas Iso-Roux-En-Y does not seem to affect the clinical course after PD. Therefore, BE seems to be a valuable surgical method to improve patients' outcome after PD.

Abstract
Background Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is one of the most frequent complications following pancreaticoduodenectomy. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the impact of Braun enteroenterostomy on DGE following pancreaticoduodenectomy. Methods A systematic review of the literature was performed to identify relevant studies. Statistical analysis was carried out using Review Manager software 5.3. Results Eleven studies involving 1672 patients (1005 in Braun group and 667 in non-Braun group) were included in the meta-analysis. Braun enteroenterostomy was associated with a statistically significant reduction in overall DGE (odds ratios [OR] 0.32, 95% confidence intervals [CI] 0.24 to 0.43; P <0.001), clinically significant DGE (OR 0.27, 95% CI 0.15 to 0.51; P <0.001), bile leak (OR 0.50, 95% CI 0.29 to 0.86; P = 0.01), and length of hospital stay (weighted mean difference -1.66, 95% CI -2.95 to 00.37; P = 0.01). Conclusions Braun enteroenterostomy minimizes the rate and severity of DGE following pancreaticoduodenectomy.
