Analysis of factors influencing pancreatic fistula after minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy and establishment of a new prediction model for clinically relevant pancreatic fistula. Surg Endosc 2024; 38:2622-2631. [PMID: 38499780 PMCID: PMC11078842 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-024-10770-6] [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: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 02/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/20/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is the most prevalent complications following minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy (MIPD). Only one model related to MIPD exists, and previous POPF scoring prediction methods are based on open pancreaticoduodenectomy patients. Our objectives are to determine the variables that may increase the probability of pancreatic fistula following MIPD and to develop and validate a POPF predictive risk model. METHODS Data from 432 patients who underwent MIPD between July 2015 and May 2022 were retrospectively collected. A nomogram prediction model was created using multivariate logistic regression analysis to evaluate independent factors for POPF in patients undergoing MIPD in the modeling cohort. The area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) and the calibration curve were used to verify the nomogram prediction model internally and externally within the modeling cohort and the verification cohort. RESULTS Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that body mass index (BMI), albumin, triglycerides, pancreatic duct diameter, pathological diagnosis and intraoperative bleeding were independent variables for POPF. On the basis of this information, a model for the prediction of risks associated with POPF was developed. In accordance with the ROC analysis, the modeling cohort's AUC was 0.819 (95% CI 0.747-0.891), the internal validation cohort's AUC was 0.830 (95% CI 0.747-0.912), and the external validation cohort's AUC was 0.793 (95% CI 0.671-0.915). Based on the calibration curve, the estimated values of POPF have a high degree of concordance with the actual values that were measured. CONCLUSIONS This model for predicting the probability of pancreatic fistula following MIPD has strong predictive capacity and can provide a trustworthy predictive method for the early screening of high-risk patients with pancreatic fistula after MIPD and timely clinical intervention.

Drain fluid volume combined with amylase level predicts clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy: A retrospective clinical study. J Gastroenterol Hepatol 2023; 38:2228-2237. [PMID: 37787385 DOI: 10.1111/jgh.16364] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2023] [Revised: 09/07/2023] [Accepted: 09/11/2023] [Indexed: 10/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Several indicators are recognized in the development of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). However, drain fluid volume (DFV) remains poorly studied. We aimed to discover the predictive effects of DFV and guide clinical management. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of patients that received PD between January 2015 and December 2019 in a high-volume center. DFV was analyzed as a potential risk factor and postoperative short-term outcomes as well as drain removal time were compared stratified by different DFV levels. Receiver operating characteristic curves and area under curves (AUC) were compared for DFV alone and DFV combined with drain fluid amylase (DFA). Subgroup analysis of DFV stratified by DFA evaluated the predictability of CR-POPF. RESULTS CR-POPF occurred in 19.7% of 841 patients. Hypertension, postoperative day 3 (POD3) DFA ≥ 300 U/L, and POD3 DFV ≥ 30 mL were independent risk factors, while pancreatic main duct diameter ≥ 3 mm was a protective factor. POD3 DFV ≥ 30 mL increased the overall occurrences of CR-POPF and major complications (P = 0.017; P = 0.029). POD3 DFV alone presented a low predictive value (AUC 0.602), while POD3 DFV combined with DFA had a high predictive value (AUC 0.759) for CR-POPF. Subgroup analysis showed that the combination of POD3 DFV ≥ 30 mL and DFA ≥ 300 U/L led to higher incidences of CR-POPF (P = 0.003). CONCLUSION CR-POPF is common after PD, and high DFV combined with DFA may predict its occurrence and facilitate appropriate management.

Abstract
A meta-analysis was conducted to measure hepatic and pancreatic tumour resection (HPTR) risk factors (RFs) for surgical site wound infections (SSWIs). A comprehensive literature inspection was conducted until February 2023, and 2349 interrelated investigations were reviewed. The nine chosen investigations included 22 774 individuals who were in the chosen investigations' starting point, 20 831 of them were with pancreatic tumours (PTs), and 1934 with hepatic tumours (HTs). Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to compute the value of the HPTR RFs for SSWIs using dichotomous and continuous approaches, and a fixed or random model. HT patients with biliary reconstruction had significantly higher SSWI (OR, 5.81; 95% CI, 3.42-9.88, P < .001) than those without biliary reconstruction. Nevertheless, there was no significant difference between individuals with PT who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy and those who underwent distal pancreatectomy in SSWI (OR, 1.63; 95% CI, 0.95-2.77, P = .07). HT individuals with biliary reconstruction had significantly higher SSWI compared with those without biliary reconstruction. Nevertheless, there was no significant difference between PT individuals who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy and those who underwent distal pancreatectomy in SSWI. However, owing to the small number of selected investigations for this meta-analysis, care must be exercised when dealing with its values.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) represents one of the most severe complications following pancreatic surgery. Despite being a leading cause of morbidity and mortality, its pathophysiology is poorly understood. In recent years, there has been growing evidence to support the role of postoperative or post-pancreatectomy acute pancreatitis (PPAP) in the development of POPF. This article reviews the contemporary literature on POPF pathophysiology, risk factors, and prevention strategies. METHODS A literature search was conducted using electronic databases, including Ovid Medline, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library, to retrieve relevant literature published between 2005 and 2023. A narrative review was planned from the outset. RESULTS A total of 104 studies fulfilled criteria for inclusion. Forty-three studies reported on technical factors predisposing to POPF, including resection and reconstruction technique and adjuncts for anastomotic reinforcement. Thirty-four studies reported on POPF pathophysiology. There is compelling evidence to suggest that PPAP plays a critical role in the development of POPF. The acinar component of the remnant pancreas should be regarded as an intrinsic risk factor; meanwhile, operative stress, remnant hypoperfusion, and inflammation represent common mechanisms for acinar cell injury. CONCLUSIONS The evidence base for PPAP and POPF is evolving. Future POPF prevention strategies should look beyond anastomotic reinforcement and target underlying mechanisms of PPAP development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS A tissue diagnosis is not always obtained prior to pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) and a proportion of patients are found to have noncancerous histology postoperatively. It is unknown if these patients have different outcomes when compared with those who have malignancy confirmed. METHODS A retrospective paired case matched control study was undertaken. Patients who underwent PD for suspected malignancy but ultimately had nonmalignant histology were identified. Each was matched to a confirmed malignant control using the following criteria: age, gender, body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologists grade, neoadjuvant treatment, preoperative serum bilirubin, preoperative biliary stenting and type of pancreatic anastomosis. Matching was blinded to the measured outcomes, which included perioperative morbidity and mortality. RESULTS Forty-five cases were compared with 45 well-matched controls. There was no difference in 30- or 90-day mortality, or length of stay. While overall morbidity rates were the same, patients with nonmalignant disease were more likely to experience major (Clavien-Dindo grade III-IV) morbidity (40.0% versus 17.8%, p = 0.0352). Independently, rates of clinically relevant pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) were higher in the nonmalignant group (22.2% versus 4.44%, p = 0.0131). CONCLUSIONS In our study, PD patients with nonmalignant histology had significantly higher incidence of major morbidity and CR-POPF when compared with those who had malignancy confirmed. This should be considered when planning the management of patients with known or presumed benign/premalignant disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to develop a classification system for pancreas-associated risk factors in pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is the most relevant PD-associated complication. A simple standardized surgical reporting system based on pancreas-associated risk factors is lacking. METHODS A systematic literature search was conducted to identify studies investigating clinically relevant (CR) POPF (CR-POPF) and pancreas-associated risk factors after PD. A meta-analysis of CR-POPF rate for texture of the pancreas (soft vs not-soft) and main pancreatic duct (MPD) diameter was performed using the Mantel-Haenszel method. Based on the results, the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) proposes the following classification: A, not-soft (hard) texture and MPD >3 mm; B, not-soft (hard) texture and MPD ≤3 mm; C, soft texture and MPD >3 mm; D, soft texture and MPD ≤3 mm. The classification was evaluated in a multi-institutional, international cohort. RESULTS Of the 2917 articles identified, 108 studies were included in the analyses. Soft pancreatic texture was significantly associated with the development of CR-POPF [odds ratio (OR) 4.24, 95% confidence interval (CI) 3.67-4.89, P < 0.01) following PD. Similarly, MPD diameter ≤3 mm significantly increased CR-POPF risk compared with >3 mm diameter MPDs (OR 3.66, 95% CI 2.62-5.12, P < 0.01). The proposed 4-stage system was confirmed in an independent cohort of 5533 patients with CR-POPF rates of 3.5%, 6.2%, 16.6%, and 23.2% for type A-D, respectively ( P < 0.001). CONCLUSION For future pancreatic surgical outcomes studies, the ISGPS recommends reporting these risk factors according to the proposed classification system for better comparability of results.

Abstract
Objectives We aimed to explore whether body mass index (BMI) and albumin were associated with overall survival (OS) in individuals who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) for cancer. Methods Three-hundred twenty-nine consecutive patients who underwent PD for cancer were enrolled from January 2020 to December 2020. All clinicopathological information was extracted based on medical records. The survival follow-ups were regularly performed and ended on June 30, 2021. The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and univariate and multivariate Cox proportional-hazards models were used to assess the association of BMI and albumin with OS. Results Of the 329 patients, 186 (56.5%) were male, and median age at admission was 65.0 (56.0–71.0) years. There were 258 patients (78.4%) with BMI < 25.0 kg/m2 and 89 patients (27.05%) with albumin < 35.0 g/L respectively. In overall cohort, BMI < 25.0 kg/m2 was associated with OS (adjusted HR = 3.516, 95% CI = 1.076–11.492, P = 0.037). In contrast, albumin < 35.0 g/L did not affect OS. Subgroup analysis showed, in patients with pancreas lesion, BMI < 25.0 kg/m2 had a higher risk for OS compared to BMI ≥ 25.0 kg/m2 (adjusted HR = 3.209, 95% CI = 0.985–10.451, P = 0.048), while albumin < 35.0 g/L was not linked to OS. In patients with lesion in ampulla of Vater, duodenum, or common bile duct, there was no significant association of BMI and albumin with OS. Conclusions BMI, rather than serum albumin, was associated with OS in patients who underwent PD for cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) is a common and troublesome complication after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to identify the risk factors of CR-POPF after PD. METHODS We searched PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases for studies related to risk factors of CR-POPF after PD. Odds ratios (ORs) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were extracted from the included studies, then a meta-analysis was conducted. If necessary, sensitivity analysis would be performed by changing the effect model or excluding 1 study at a time. Publication bias was assessed by funnel plot and Begg test and Egger test. RESULTS A total of 27 studies with 24,740 patients were included, and CR-POPF occurred in 3843 patients (incidence = 17%, 95% CI: 16%-19%). Male (OR = 1.56, 95% CI: 1.42-1.70), body mass index >25 kg/m2 (OR = 1.98, 95% CI: 1.23-3.18), pancreatic duct diameter <3 mm (OR = 1.87, 95% CI: 1.66-2.12), soft pancreatic texture (OR = 3.49, 95% CI: 2.61-4.67), and blood transfusion (OR = 3.10, 95% CI: 2.01-4.77) can significantly increase the risk of CR-POPF. Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (OR = 0.54, 95% CI: 0.47-0.61), vascular resection (OR = 0.57, 95% CI: 0.39-0.83), and preoperative chemoradiotherapy (OR = 0.68, 95% CI: 0.57-0.81) can significantly decrease the factor of CR-POPF. Diabetes mellitus was not statistically associated with CR-POPF (OR = 0.66, 95% CI: 0.40-1.08). However, the analysis of body mass index, pancreatic texture, and diabetes mellitus had a high heterogeneity, then sensitivity analysis was performed, and the result after sensitivity analysis showed diabetes mellitus can significantly decrease the risk of CR-POPF. There was no significant publication bias in this meta-analysis. CONCLUSIONS The current review assessed the effects of different factors on CR-POPF. This can provide a basis for the prevention and management of CR-POPF. Effective interventions targeting the above risk factors should be investigated in future studies for decreasing the occurrence of CR-POPF.

A retrospective study. Ann Hepatobiliary Pancreat Surg 2021; 26:84-90. [PMID: 34903678 PMCID: PMC8901978 DOI: 10.14701/ahbps.21-054] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2021] [Revised: 08/12/2021] [Accepted: 09/06/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Backgrounds/Aims Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) remains a dreadful complication. Duct-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy (DTMPJ) is a commonly performed anastomosis after PD. This study aims to evaluate whether there is a size limit of pancreatic duct below which POPF rate increases significantly after DTMPJ. Methods A retrospective study was performed from a database with prospectively collected data on consecutive patients undergoing DTMPJ. Results Between the years 2003 and 2019, a total of 288 patients with DTMPJ were recruited. POPF occurred in 56.3% of the patients, of which 43.8% were biochemical leak, 8.7% were grade B, and 1.4% were grade C. Overall operative morbidity was 51.4%, of which 19.1% were major complications. Five patients (1.7%) died within 90 days of operation. Patients with grade B/C POPF had significantly soft pancreas (p < 0.001), smaller duct size (p = 0.031), and a diagnosis of carcinoma of the pancreas (p = 0.027). When a clinically significant POPF rate was analysed based on the pancreatic duct diameter, pancreatic duct size ≤ 1 mm had the highest POPF rate (35.7%). There was a significant difference in POPF rate between adjacent ductal diameter ≤ 1 mm and > 1 mm to 2 mm (35.7% vs 13.3%; p = 0.040). Multivariable analysis showed that for the soft pancreas, pancreatic duct diameter ≤ 1 mm was the only significant predictive factor for POPF (p = 0.027). Conclusions DTMPJ can be safely performed for pancreatic duct > 1 mm without significantly increased POPF risk.

Utility of preoperative systemic inflammatory biomarkers in predicting postoperative complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy: Literature review and single center experience. World J Gastrointest Surg 2021; 13:1216-1225. [PMID: 34754389 PMCID: PMC8554715 DOI: 10.4240/wjgs.v13.i10.1216] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2021] [Revised: 05/10/2021] [Accepted: 07/13/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of preoperative inflammatory biomarkers (PIBs) in predicting postoperative morbidity has been assessed in colorectal and otorhinolaryngeal surgery. However, data regarding the role that preoperative inflammatory biomarkers have on morbidity after pancreaticoduodenectomiy (PD) are less consistent.
AIM To assess the utility of PIBs in predicting postoperative complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy.
METHODS A database of 317 consecutive pancreaticoduodenectomies performed from April 2003 to November 2018 has been retrospectively analyzed. Data regarding preoperative neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), derived NLR and C-reactive protein (CRP), and postoperative complications of 238 cases have been evaluated. Exclusion criteria were: age < 18-years-old, previous neoadjuvant treatment, absence of data about PIBs, concomitant hematological disorders, and presence of active infections at the moment of the surgery. PIBs were compared using Mann-Whitney’s test and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed to define the cutoffs. The positive predictive value (PPV) was computed to evaluate the probability to develop complication. P-values < 0.05 were considered statistically significant.
RESULTS According to the literature findings, only four papers have been published reporting the relation between the inflammatory biomarkers and PD postoperative morbidity. A combination of preoperative and postoperative inflammatory biomarkers in predicting complications after PD and the utility of preoperative NLR in the development of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) have been reported. The combination of PIBs and postoperative day-1 drains amylase has been reported to predict the incidence of POPF. According to our results, CRP values were significantly different between patients who had/did not have postoperative complications and abdominal collections (P < 0.05). Notably, patients with preoperative CRP > 8.81 mg/dL were at higher risk of both overall complications and abdominal collections (respectively P = 0.0037, PPV = 0.95, negative predictive value [NPV] = 0.27 and P = 0.016, PPV = 0.59, NPV = 0.68). Preoperative derived neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (dNLR) (cut off > 1.47) was also a predictor of abdominal collection (P = 0.021, PPV = 0.48, NPV = 0.71). Combining CRP and dNLR, PPV increased to 0.67. NLR (cut off > 1.65) was significantly associated with postoperative hemorrhage (P = 0.016, PPV = 0.17, NPV = 0.98).
CONCLUSION PIBs may predict complications after PD. During postoperative care, PIB levels could influence decisions regarding the timing of drains removal and the selection of patients who might benefit from second level diagnostic exams.

Abstract
Objective To establish a risk prediction model for pancreatic fistula according to the pancreatic fistula standards of the 2016 edition. Methods Clinical data from 223 patients with PD admitted to Tianjin Third Central Hospital from January 2016 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into modeling (January 2016 to December 2018) and validation (January 2019 to December 2020) sets according to the time of admission. The risk factors for postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) were screened by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses, and a risk prediction model for POPF was established in the modeling set. This score was tested in the validation set. Results Logistic regression analysis showed that the main pancreatic duct index and CT value were independent risk factors according to the 2016 pancreatic fistula grading standard, based on which a risk prediction model for POPF was established. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the area under the curve was 0.775 in the modeling set and 0.848 in the validation set. Conclusion The main pancreatic duct index and CT value of the pancreas are closely related to the occurrence of pancreatic fistula after PD, and the established risk prediction model for pancreatic fistula has good prediction accuracy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is one of the major complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy. There have been many studies into the risk factors determining POPF. Some studies have reported a higher peri-operative fluid balance associated with POPF, however, the pertinent findings remain controversial. The aims of this study were to determine risk factors of clinically relevant-post operative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) after pancreaticoduodenectomy and an association between peri-operative fluid balance and the incidence of CR-POPF. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study included all adult patients who underwent an elective open pancreaticoduodenectomy in our center from 2005 to 2018. Patients who did not have POPF related data were excluded from study. We divided patients into CR-POPF and no CR-POPF group. Peri-operative data including amount and type of fluid were compared between two groups. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the independent risk factors of CR-POPF. RESULTS There were 223 pancreaticoduodenectomies done in our center during that period. The incidence of CR-POPF was 15.2 %. Patients in CR-POPF group had significant higher BMI, higher serum globulin level, smaller pancreatic duct diameter and higher cumulative fluid balance per body weight (FBPBW) at post-operative day 3. Multivariable analysis showed BMI >23 kg/m2, diagnosis other than pancreatic duct adenocarcinoma or chronic pancreatitis and higher cumulative FBPBW at post-operative day 3 were the independent risk factors for CR-POPF. CONCLUSIONS Post-operative fluid balance was the post-operative modifiable risk factor to reduce CR-POPF. Higher positive post-operative fluid balance should be avoided especially in higher CR-POPF risk patients.

Abstract
Backgound: This study aimed to determine the usefulness of the Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) scorescore for predicting postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF). PATIENTS AND METHODS Data from 108 consecutive pancreaticoduodenectomy cases performed at the Surgery Department of Iwakuni Clinical Center, from April 2008 to May 2018, were included. Preoperative patient data and postoperative complication data were collected. RESULTS Of the 108 patients (male=65; female=43; mean age=70 years), 41 (37.9%) had indication for pancreaticoduodenectomy due to pancreatic carcinoma. Grade B or higher POPF was diagnosed in 32 patients (29.6%). In the multivariate analysis, body mass index ≥22 kg/m2 [odds ratio (OR)=5.24; p=0.005], CONUT score ≥4 (OR=3.28; p=0.042), non-pancreatic carcinoma (OR=47.17; p=0.001), and a low computed tomographic contrast attenuation value (late/early ratio) (OR=4.39; p=0.029) were independent risk factors for POPF. CONCLUSION Patients with high CONUT score are at high risk for POPF. Preoperative nutritional intervention such as immunonutrition might help reduce the POPF risk in these patients.

Abstract
Aim In order to find the risk factors of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) according to the latest definition and grading system of International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) (version 2016) and propose a nomogram for predicting POPF. Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis of 232 successive cases of PD performed at our hospital by the same operator from August 2012 to June 2020. POPF was diagnosed in accordance with the latest definition of pancreatic fistula from the ISGPS. The risk factors of POPF were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. A nomogram model to predict the risk of POPF was constructed based on significant factors. Results There were 18 cases of POPF, accounting for 7.8% of the total. Among them, 17 cases were classified into ISGPF grade B and 1 case was classified into ISGPF grade C. In addition, 35 cases were classified into biochemical leak. Univariate and multivariate analysis showed that hypertension, non-diabetes, no history of abdominal surgery, antecolic gastrojejunostomy and soft pancreas were independent risk factors of POPF. Based on significant factors, a nomogram is plotted to predict the risk of POPF. The C-index of this nomogram to assess prediction accuracy was 0.916 (P < 0.001) indicating good prediction performance. Conclusion Hypertension, non-diabetes, no history of abdominal surgery, antecolic gastrojejunostomy and soft pancreas were independent risk factors of POPF. Meanwhile, a nomogram for predicting POPF with good test performance and discriminatory capacity was constituted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatic fistulas remain a significant concern after pancreatectomy owing to the associated high risk of mortality and high costs. It is not possible to perform preoperative risk stratification for all patients. This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of the measurement of portal vein (PV) distance as a predictive indicator of pancreatic fistula development after pancreatoduodenectomy and compare it with the usefulness of other indicators such as body mass index (BMI), and abdominal fat area. METHODS Patient characteristics, preoperative laboratory data, radiographic findings, and their association with pancreatic fistula development after pancreatoduodenectomy were analyzed for 157 patients who underwent resection during 2011-2017. Clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistulas (CR-POPF) were defined as Grade B or C fistulas based on the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) 2016 consensus. RESULTS CR-POPF developed in 38 patients (24.2%). Multivariate logistic regression indicated that PV distance and BMI were potential candidates for predictive models for pancreatic fistula development, and small pancreatic duct diameter, diabetes mellitus development, and pathology of non-pancreatic cancers were independent factors for CR-POPF. When comparing the two risk models (PV distance- and BMI-based models), the PV distance-derived risk model was compatible to the BMI-based stratification models (area under the curve 0.831 vs. 0.830). CONCLUSIONS PV distance was confirmed to be a useful risk predictor for CR-POPF. This research highlighted the efficacy of abdominal thickness measurement, which is simple and easily applicable in the clinical setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatic resections are among the most technically demanding procedures, including a high risk of potentially life-threatening complications and outcomes strongly correlated to hospital volume and individual surgeon experience. Minimally invasive pancreatic resections (MIPRs) have become a part of standard surgical practice worldwide over the last decade; however, in comparison with other surgical procedures, the implementation of minimally invasive approaches into clinical practice has been rather slow. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to highlight and summarize the available randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating the role of minimally invasive approaches in pancreatic surgery. METHODS A WHO trial registry and Pubmed database literature search was performed to identify all RCTs comparing MIPRs (robot-assisted and/or laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy [DP] or pancreatoduodenectomy [PD]) with open pancreatic resections (OPRs). RESULTS Overall, five RCTs on MIPR versus OPR have been published and seven RCTs are currently recruiting. For DP, the results of two RCTs were in favor of minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy (MIDP) in terms of shorter hospital stay and less intraoperative blood loss, with comparable morbidity and mortality. Regarding PD, two RCTs showed similar advantages for MIPD. However, concerns were raised after the early termination of the third multicenter RCT on MIPD versus open PD due to higher complication-related mortality in the laparoscopic group and no clear other demonstrable advantages. No RCTs on robot-assisted pancreatic procedures are available as yet. CONCLUSION At the current level of evidence, MIDP is thought to be safe and feasible, although oncological safety should be further evaluated. Based on the results of the RCTs conducted for PD, MIPD cannot be proclaimed as the superior alternative to open PD, although promising outcomes have been demonstrated by experienced centers. Future studies should provide answers to the role of robotic approaches in pancreatic surgery and aim to identity the subgroups of patients or indications with the greatest benefit of MIPRs.

The prognostic value of Presepsin for postoperative complications following pancreatic resection: A prospective study. PLoS One 2020; 15:e0243510. [PMID: 33296435 PMCID: PMC7725319 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0243510] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2020] [Accepted: 11/22/2020] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Presepsin is involved in binding lipopolysaccharides and previous studies have confirmed its value as a marker for early diagnosis and prediction of severity in sepsis. Comparable studies assessing the predictive potential regarding postoperative complications and mortality following pancreatic resection are lacking. Methods This prospective study included 70 patients undergoing pancreatic resection from December 2017 until May 2019. Presepsin was measured preoperatively, on postoperative day 1, 3 and 8 (POD1/3/8) and correlated with the clinical course and mortality. Results Severe complications (Clavien-Dindo ≥3a) occurred in 28 patients (40%), postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) grade B/C occurred in 20 patients (28.6%), infectious complications in 28 (40%), and four patients (5.7%) died during hospital stay. Presepsin levels at any timepoint did not correlate with further development of postoperative complications or in-hospital mortality whereas CRP levels on postoperative day (POD) 3 were significantly associated with clinically relevant POPF (AUC 0.664, 95%CI 0.528–0.800; p = 0.033). Preoperative Presepsin levels as well as Presepsin on POD1 were significantly elevated in patients with malignant compared to benign underlying disease (299pg/ml vs. 174pg/ml and 693.5pg/ml vs. 294pg/ml; p = 0.009 and 0.013, respectively). Conclusion In our cohort, Presepsin was not eligible to predict the postoperative course following pancreatic resection. However, Presepsin levels were significantly elevated in patients with malignant disease, this finding warrants further investigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreaticoduodenectomy is a technically demanding operation, with reported morbidity rates of approximately 40%–50%. A novel idea is to use endoscopic vacuum therapy (EVT) in a preemptive setting to prevent anastomotic leakage and pancreatic fistulas. In a recent case series, EVT was proven to be effective in preventing leaks in patients with anastomotic ischemia. There have been no previous reports on preemptive EVT after pancreaticoduodenectomy.
CASE SUMMARY We describe the case of a 71-year-old woman with hypertension and diabetes who was admitted to the emergency room with jaundice, choluria, fecal acholia, abdominal pain, and fever. Admission examinations revealed leukocytosis and hyperbilirubinemia (total: 13 mg/dL; conjugated: 12.1 mg/dL). Abdominal ultrasound showed cholelithiasis and dilation of the common bile duct. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a stenotic area, and a biopsy confirmed cholangiocarcinoma. Considering the high risk of leaks after pancreaticoduodenectomy, preemptive endoluminal vacuum therapy was performed. The system comprised a nasogastric tube, gauze, and an antimicrobial incise drape. The negative pressure was 125 mmHg, and no adverse events occurred. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 5 without any symptoms.
CONCLUSION Preemptive endoluminal vacuum therapy may be a safe and feasible technique to reduce leaks after pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Abstract
Background Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is one of the most serious complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Various factors have been reported as POPF risks, but the most serious of these is soft pancreas. To reduce POPF occurrences, many changes to the PD process have been proposed. This study evaluates short-term results of anastomosis technique for PD. Methods In total, 123 patients with soft pancreases who had undergone PD at Yamanashi University between January 2012 and August 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. We divided these patients into two groups depending on the time PD was performed: a conventional group (n = 67) and a modified group (n = 56). Results The rate of clinically relevant POPF was significantly lower in the modified group than that in the conventional group (5.4% vs 22.4%, p value < 0.001), with there being only one case of POPF in the modified group. There were no cases of POPF-related hemorrhaging in the modified group. On the third day after the operation, the amylase levels in the drainage fluid for the modified group became less than half (1696 vs 650 U/L). Multivariate analysis showed that the modified method was the independent predictors to prevent clinical POPF (p value = 0.002). Conclusions Our novel anastomosis technique for pancreatojejunostomy reduced POPF in PD, especially in cases where the patient had a soft pancreas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many studies have explored factors relating to post-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF); however, the original definition (All-POPF) was revised to include only 'clinically relevant' (CR) POPF. This study identified variables associated with the two International Study Group on Pancreatic Surgery definitions to identify which variables are more strongly associated with CR-POPF. METHODS A systematic review identified all studies reporting risk factors for POPF (using both International Study Group on Pancreatic Fistula definitions) following pancreatoduodenectomy. The primary outcome was factors associated with CR-POPF. Meta-analyses (random effects models) of pre-, intra- and post-operative factors associated with POPF in more than two studies were included. RESULTS Among 52 774 patients All-POPF (n = 69 studies) and CR-POPF (n = 53 studies) affected 27% (95% confidence interval (CI95% ) 23-30) and 19% (CI95% 17-22), respectively. Of the 176 factors, 24 and 17 were associated with All- and CR-POPF, respectively. Absence of pre-operative pancreatitis, presence of renal disease, no pre-operative neoadjuvant therapy, use of post-operative somatostatin analogues, absence of associated venous or arterial resection were associated with CR-POPF but not All-POPF. CONCLUSION In conclusion this study demonstrates wide variation in reported rates of POPF and that several risk factors associated with CR-POPF are not used within risk prediction models. Data from this study can be used to shape future studies, research and audit across ethnic and geographic boundaries in POPF following pancreatoduodenectomy.

Abstract
Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is the most serious complication after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), which can lead to slow recovery, deterioration, and even reoperation and death. At present, the mortality rate after PD has decreased, but the incidence of POPF is still high. Therefore, exploring the risk factors and prevention strategies for pancreatic fistula has become a hot research topic in pancreatic surgery. This paper summarizes the nature, risk factors, and preventive measures for POPF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The risk factors for surgical site infection (SSI) after HPB surgery are poorly defined. This meta-analysis aimed to quantify the SSI rates and risk factors for SSI after pancreas and liver resection. METHODS The PUBMED, MEDLINE and EMBASE databases were systematically searched using the PRISMA framework. The primary outcome measure was pooled SSI rates. The secondary outcome measure was risk factor profile determination for SSI. RESULTS The overall rate of SSI after pancreatic and liver resection was 25.1 and 10.4%, respectively (p < 0.001). 32% of pancreaticoduodenectomies developed SSI vs 23% after distal pancreatectomy (p < 0.001). The rate of incisional SSI in the pancreatic group was 9% and organ/space SSI 16.5%. Biliary resection during liver surgery was a risk factor for SSI (25.0 vs 15.7%, p = 0.002). After liver resection, the incisional SSI rate was 7.6% and the organ space SSI rate was 10.2%. Pancreas-specific SSI risk factors were pre-operative biliary drainage (p < 0.001), chemotherapy (p < 0.001) and radiotherapy (p = 0.007). Liver-specific SSI risk factors were smoking (p = 0.046), low albumin (p < 0.001) and significant blood loss (p < 0.001). The rate of organ/space SSI in patients with POPF was 47.7% and in patients without POPF 7.3% (p < 0.001). Organ/space SSI rate was 43% in patients with bile leak and 10% in those without (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The risk factors for SSI following pancreatic and liver resections are distinct from each other, with higher SSI rates after pancreatic resection. Pancreaticoduodenectomy has increased risk of SSI compared to distal pancreatectomy. Similarly, biliary resections during liver surgery increase the rates of SSI.

Abstract
Purpose Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is the most important factor affecting morbidity and mortality after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Patients with a high controlling nutritional status (CONUT) score, which is used to assess nutritional status, are expected to have high morbidity rates. This study aimed to determine the usefulness of the CONUT score. Methods Data from 97 consecutive cases of PD performed in the Department of Surgery of Iwakuni Clinical Center, from April 2008 to May 2018, were included. Preoperative patient data, including sex, age, and hypertension, and postoperative complication data were collected to analyze pancreatic fistula occurrence. Results Of the 97 patients, 2 9 patients (29.8%) were diagnosed with POPF ≥ B, with 26 cases (26.8%) classified as grade B and 3 (3.1%) as grade C. The mortality rate was 2.1% (2 of 97). In the univariate analysis, a significant association was observed between POPF and the following factors: body mass index (BMI) ≥ 22 kg/m2, high CONUT score, nonpancreatic carcinoma, and CT attenuation values. In multivariate analysis, BMI ≥ 22 kg/m2 (odds ratio [OR], 6.16; P < 0.001), high CONUT score (OR, 3.77; P = 0.009), nonpancreatic carcinoma (OR, 5.72; P = 0.009), and CT attenuation values (late/early ratio) in the pancreas (OR, 9.07; P = 0.006) were independent risk factors for POPF. Conclusion Patients with a high CONUT score are at high risk of POPF. Further study correlating preoperative nutritional intervention with risk of POPF is necessary.

Abstract
Purpose The International Study Group on Pancreatic Fistula's definition of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) has recently been updated. This study aimed to identify risk factors for POPF in patients having pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and to generate a nomogram to predict POPF. Methods Data on 298 patients who underwent PD from March 2012 to October 2017 was retrospectively reviewed and POPF statuses were redefined. A nomogram was constructed using data from 220 patients and validated using the remaining 78 patients. Independent risk factors for POPF were identified using univariate and multivariate analyses. A predictive nomogram was established based on the independent risk factors and was compared with existing models. Results Texture of the pancreas, size of the main pancreatic duct, portal vein invasion, and definitive pathology were the identified risk factors. The nomogram had a C-index of 0.793 and was internally validated. The nomogram performed better (C-index of 0.816) than the other most cited models (C-indexes of 0.728 and 0.735) in the validation cohort. In addition, the nomogram can assign patients into low- (less than 10%), intermediate- (10% to 30%), and high-risk (equal or higher than 30%) groups to facilitate personalized management. Conclusion The nomogram accurately predicted POPF in patients having PD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The most hazardous complication to pancreatic surgery is the development of a post-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF). Appropriate understanding of the underlying pathophysiology, risk factors and perioperative mechanisms may allow for better management and use of preventive measures. METHODS Systematic literature search using the English PubMed literature up to April 2019, with emphasis on the past 5 years. RESULTS Several risk scores have been developed but none are perfect in predicting POPF risk. A conceptual framework of factors that contribute to the pathophysiology of pancreatic fistulae is still developing but incomplete. Recognized factors include those related to the patient, the pathology and the perioperative care. Interventions such as use of drains, stents and various drugs to mediate risk is still debated. Emerging data suggest that both the microbiome and the inflammation in the post-operative phase may play important roles in risk for POPF. Available risk scores allow for stratification of risk and mitigation strategies tailored to reduce this. However, accurate estimation of risk remains a challenge and mechanisms are only partially understood. CONCLUSIONS The pathophysiology of POPF remains poorly understood. Current models only partially explain risks or associated mechanisms. Novel areas of investigation need to be explored for better prediction.

Abstract
Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is one of the most severe complications after pancreatic surgeries. POPF develops as a consequence of pancreatic juice leakage from a surgically exfoliated surface and/or anastomotic stump, which sometimes cause intraperitoneal abscesses and subsequent lethal hemorrhage. In recent years, various surgical and perioperative attempts have been examined to reduce the incidence of POPF. We reviewed several well-designed studies addressing POPF-related factors, such as reconstruction methods, anastomotic techniques, stent usage, prophylactic intra-abdominal drainage, and somatostatin analogs, after pancreaticoduodenectomy and distal pancreatectomy, and we assessed the current status of POPF. In addition, we also discussed the current status of POPF in minimally invasive surgeries, laparoscopic surgeries, and robotic surgeries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To prevent leakage of pancreatic juice from the main pancreatic duct (MPD), complete external drainage appears to be the most effective technique. However, because this requires a pancreatic stent tube to be ligated with MPD, duct-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) is difficult. From our histopathological examination, a large amount of pancreatic juice is drained from the ducts other than MPD. This study aimed to evaluate our new conceptual technique of PJ after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). METHODS We considered it important to drain pancreatic juice from the branch pancreatic ducts to the intestinal tract and to perform duct-to-mucosa PJ, while pancreatic juice from MPD is completely drained out of the body. We designed a technique that could simultaneously achieve these points. In our technique, which is based on conventional "two-row" anastomosis, a stent tube is fixed with MPD and its surrounding tissue by purse-string suture at the cut surface of the pancreas, and duct-to-mucosa PJ is concomitantly performed. RESULTS Of 45 patients undergoing PD, 12 of soft pancreas underwent surgery with this technique. According to the classification of the International Study Group on Pancreatic Fistula, a Grade A PF was observed in four patients, whereas no patient had a Grade B or C PF. CONCLUSIONS We propose our anastomotic technique that could simultaneously prevent PF and keep the pancreatic duct patent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Various technical interventions have been suggested to decrease the frequency of postoperative pancreatic fistulas but the effect is not particularly satisfactory. We have analyzed our application of bilateral U-sutures in pancreaticojejunostomy. METHODS The pancreatic stump is freed over approximately 2 cm, an appropriate diameter silicone catheter with 2-4 lateral holes was inserted into the remnant pancreatic duct (>2 mm in diameter is required) over 2-3 cm as a stent in 69 patients. In six patients with soft pancreas and very small pancreatic duct (<2 mm in diameter), the silicone catheter was not used. An incision was made on the side of the distal section of the jejunum and end-to-side an invaginated pancreaticojejunostomy was performed using bilateral U-sutures. RESULTS Only two (2.67%) cases developed pancreatic 'biochemical leaks'. None of the 75 patients developed grade B and grade C pancreatic leakage. The overall morbidity was 29.33%. The anastomosis time was 14 minutes on average. There were no symptoms such as abdominal discomfort, dyspepsia and diarrhea, and no dilatation of pancreatic duct was found by CT in 75 patients after discharge from hospital. CONCLUSIONS Bilateral U-sutures are a safe, simple, and effective technique in pancreaticojejunostomy, preventing the primary complication of anastomotic leakage, and worthy of wide use.

Abstract
Background The goal of our study was to evaluate the current approach in prediction of postoperative major complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), especially symptomatic pancreatic fistula (POPF), using parameters derived from computed tomography (CT). Methods Patients after PD were prospectively collected in a database of the local department of surgery and all patients with CT scans available were assessed in this study. CT parameters were measured at the level of the intervertebral disc L3/L4 and consisted of the areas of the visceral adipose tissue (AVAT), the diameters of the pancreatic parenchyma (DPP) and the pancreatic duct (DPD), the areas of ventral abdominal wall muscle (AMVEN), psoas muscle (AMPSO), paraspinal muscle (AMSPI), total muscle (AMTOT), as well as the mean muscle attenuation (MA) and skeletal muscle index (SMI). Mann-Whitney-U Test for two independent samples and binary logistic regression were used for statistical analysis. Results One hundred thirty-nine patients (55 females, 84 males) were included. DPD was 2.9 mm (Range 0.7–10.7) on median and more narrow in patients with complications equal to or greater stadium IIIb (p < 0.04) and severe POPF (p < 0.01). DPP median value was 17 (6.9–37.9) mm and there was no significant difference regarding major complications or POPF. AVAT showed a median value of 127.5 (14.5–473.0) cm2 and was significantly larger in patients with POPF (p < 0.01), but not in cases of major complications (p < 0.06). AMPSO, AMSPI, AMVEN and AMTOT showed no significant differences between major complications and POPF. MA was both lower in groups with major complications (p < 0.01) and POPF (p < 0.01). SMI failed to differentiate between patients with or without major complications or POPF. Conclusion Besides the known factors visceral obesity and narrowness of the pancreatic duct, the mean muscle attenuation can easily be examined on routine preoperative CT scans and seems to be promising parameter to predict postoperative complications and POPF.

Abstract
Background Various technical improvements have decreased the morbidity and mortality after pancreaticoduodenectomy. However, postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is the most feared complication, and the ideal technique for pancreatic reconstruction is undetermined. The aim of this study was to identify the risk factors and incidence of POPF with different types of pancreatic stump management after robot-assisted pancreaticoduodenectomy (RAPD). Materials and Methods This study is a retrospective review of consecutive patients who underwent RAPD at the University of Illinois Hospital and Health Sciences System between September 2007 and January 2016. The cohort was divided based on the type of pancreatic stump management: pancreatic duct occlusion with cyanoacrylate glue (CG), pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ), posterior pancreaticogastrostomy (PPG), and transgastric pancreaticogastrostomy (TPG). Results The cohort included 69 patients: pancreatic duct occlusion with CG (n = 18), PJ (n = 12), PPG (n = 11), and TPG (n = 28). Pancreatic duct diameter < 3 mm and duct occlusion with CG were identified as risk factors for POPF (p < 0.05). The incidence of POPF was lower when TPG and PJ were performed (p < 0.001). Conclusions Reconstruction with PJ and TPG had better results compared to pancreatic duct occlusion with CG and PPG. However, TPG was the technique of choice and showed comparable results to PJ.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) remains the most common neopathy after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). An ideal pancreaticoenterostomy (PE) which can effectively reduce the incidence of CR-POPF and its potential neopathy is needed. We aimed to assess the efficacy of our modified duct-to-mucosa PE in the PD. METHOD From January 2011 to December 2017, 233 consecutive patients with PD were retrospectively included from Shenzhen People's Hospital. After propensity score matching (PSM), there were 82 patients in both the modified duct-to-mucosa PE group (group A) and the conventional end-to-side inserting PE group (group B), respectively. The clinical course and the incidence of postoperative neopathy were compared between groups. Logistic regression method was utilized to analyze the association between PE approach and CR-POPF. RESULTS The PE time was shorter in group A (9.3 ± 1.8 min vs. 21.5 ± 2.8 min, P < 0.001). The group A had significantly lower incidence of severe neopathy (Clavien-Dindo grade > II) [7.3% (5/82) vs. 17.1% (14/82), P = 0.028] and incidence of CR-POPF [1.2% (1/82) vs. 19.5% (12/82), P < 0.001] than the group B. Our modified duct-to-mucosa PE technique was associated with a reduced risk for CR-POPF (OR, 0.11 [95% CI, 0.02-0.57]; P = 0.009) as compared with the conventional end-to-side inserting PE. CONCLUSION Compared with conventional end-to-side inserting PE, our modified duct-to-mucosa PE technique can effectively reduce the incidences of postoperative neopathy and CR-POPF.

Abstract
This study was designed to analyze the risk factors for postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD).Between September 2015 and August 2017, 170 successive patients underwent a radical PD in the Department of Pancreatic Surgery, Union Hospital, Wuhan. We carried out a retrospective study of these cases and the prospective conditions, which might be related to POPF, were examined with univariate and multivariate analysis. POPF was defined as a drain output of any measurable volume of fluid with an amylase level more than 3 times the upper limit of serum amylase activity on postoperative day 3, accompanied by a clinically relevant condition according to the 2016 update of the International Study Group for Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) definition. In our study, the POPF was just referred to as grade B and grade C pancreatic fistula in accordance with the ISGPS consensus, because the former grade A pancreatic fistula is now redefined as a biochemical leak, namely no-POPF, which has no clinical impact and needs no other special therapy.Pancreatic fistula occurred in 44 (25.9%) patients after PD, with a mean length of hospital stay of 24.98 ± 14.30 days. Thirty-six patients (21.2%) developed grade B pancreatic fistula, and 8 patients (4.7%) had grade C pancreatic fistula. Among patients with grade C pancreatic fistula, 4 patients died, 3 patients were operated on again, and 3 patients developed multiple organ failure.Univariate analysis showed a significantly important association between POPF and the following factors: pancreas texture (soft vs hard: 39.1% vs 10.3%, P < .0001) and fasting blood glucose level (<108.0 mg/dL vs ≥108.0 mg/dL: 32.5% vs 12.5%, P = .005). Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified 2 independent factors related to POPF: soft pancreas texture and fasting blood glucose level <108.0 mg/dL.A soft pancreas and a fasting blood glucose level of <108.0 mg/dL are risk factors for the development of a POPF.

Abstract
Major hepatobiliary and pancreatic (HP) surgeries are complex procedures associated with a high incidence of surgical site infection (SSI) and are commonly performed in patients with cancer in Japan. This study was performed to investigate the risk factors for SSI, including incisional and organ/space SSI, in HP surgery. The following procedures were included in the study: hepatectomy with and without biliary tract resection, pancreatectomy [pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), others], and open cholecystectomy. In total, 735 patients were analyzed. The incidence of SSI was 17.8% (incisional, 5.2%; organ/space, 15.5%; both 2.9%). The highest incidence of SSI was observed in patients who underwent hepatectomy with biliary tract resection (39.1%), followed by pancreatectomy (PD, 28.8%; others, 29.8%). Almost all SSIs after these three procedures were classified as organ/space (39.1%, 25.0%, and 27.7%, respectively), and these procedures were risk factors for not only total SSI but also organ/space SSI in the multivariate analysis. An American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status of ≥3 was a risk factor for incisional SSI. Preoperative biliary drainage, prolonged surgery, concomitant surgery, and massive intraoperative bleeding were associated with SSI. In conclusion, the main type of SSI was organ/space SSI after HP surgery, and different risk factors were identified between organ/space and incisional SSI. Procedure-related factors and preoperative biliary drainage were independent risk factors for SSI. To prevent SSI, the indication for preoperative biliary drainage should be carefully evaluated in patients undergoing HP surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is the most common critical complication after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and a primary reason for increased mortality and morbidity after PD. To perform a safe pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ), a fast and simple technique of duct-to-mucosa PJ with one-layer suture was devised at our institution. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of 81 successive cases of PD performed at our hospital from March 2012 to August 2016. Data of perioperative parameters were collected for all PD cases. RESULTS A total of 17 (21.0%) cases of morbidity occurred after PD, including 5 (6.1%) cases of POPF (grade A), 8 (9.8%) cases of delayed gastric emptying, 1 (1.2%) case of abdominal infection, and 3 (3.7%) cases of incision infection. The median operative time for the PJ was 7 min. No mortality or relaparotomy was observed. CONCLUSION Our technique could significantly reduce the incidence of POPF and other complications after PD and may be a promising technique for pancreaticoenteric anastomosis.

Abstract
Postoperative pancreatic fistula (PF) remains one of the most significant complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Recently, studies have suggested that post-PD serum hyper-amylasemia (HA) may be a risk factor. In this study, we evaluate the relationship of pancreas texture and post-operative serum amylase levels in determining PF risk. This retrospective cohort study evaluated all patients who underwent PD at Thomas Jefferson University from 2009 to 2014. The highest postoperative serum amylase level from postoperative day (POD) 0 to POD 5 was obtained. Chi-square analyses and odds ratio (OR) evaluated the relationship between pancreas texture, serum amylase level, and the development of PF. Data from 524 consecutive patients were analyzed. Serum amylase threshold value of 165 IU/L yielded greatest accuracy from the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis (Sensitivity, 0.70; specificity, 0.72). Grade B or C PF were more common among HA patients (20 vs 3%; P < 0.001). HA was associated with increased rates of PD-associated complications. On multivariable analysis, early postoperative serum HA was more predictive of PF risk (OR, 4.87; P < 0.001) than either pancreatic duct size ≤3 mm (OR, 2.97; P = 0.01) or pancreas texture (OR,1.87; P = 0.05). Conclusion: The presence of HA on POD 0 or POD 1 is more predictive than soft pancreas texture or small pancreas duct size alone.

Abstract
Objective This study proposed a modified Blumgart anastomosis (m-BA) that uses a firm ligation of the main pancreatic duct with a supporting tube to replace the pancreatic duct-to-jejunum mucosa anastomosis, with the aim of simplifying the complicated steps of the conventional BA (c-BA). Thus, we observe if a difference in the risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) exists between the two methods. Methods The m-BA anastomosis method has been used since 2010. From October 2011 to October 2015, 147 patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) using BA in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital were enrolled in this study. According to the type of pancreatojejunostomy (PJ), 50 patients underwent m-BA and 97 received c-BA. The two patient cohorts were compared prospectively to some extent but not randomized, and the evaluated variables were operation time, the incidence rate of POPF, and other perioperative complications. Results The operation time showed no significant difference (P > 0.05) between the two groups, but the time of duct-to-mucosa anastomosis in the m-BA group was much shorter than that in the c-BA group ( P < 0.001). The incidence rate of clinically relevant POPF was 12.0% (6/50) in the modified group and 10.3% (10/97) in the conventional group ( P > 0.05), which means that the modified anastomosis method did not cause additional pancreatic leakage. The mean length of postoperative hospital stay of the m-BA group was 23 days, and that of the c-BA group was 22 days ( P > 0.05). Conclusions Compared with the conventional BA, we suggest that the modified BA is a feasible, safe, and effective operation method for P J of PD with no sacrifice of surgical quality. In the multivariate analysis, we also found that body mass index (≥ 25 kg/m2) increased the risk of POPF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several small-scale studies have shown that wrapping polyethylene glycolic acid (PGA) mesh around the anastomotic site reinforced pancreaticojejunostomy following pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) with favorable outcomes. This study investigated the efficacy of PGA mesh for reducing postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) and evaluated other risk factors for POPF. METHODS This study enrolled 464 consecutive patients who underwent PD performed by one surgeon between 2006 and 2015, including a PGA group of 281 patients (60.6%) and a control group of 183 patients (39.4%). All pancreatico-enteric anastomoses were performed using double-layered, duct-to-mucosa, end-to-side pancreaticojejunostomy. RESULTS Mean patient age was 63.1 years. The rates of overall (27.0% vs. 37.2%, P = 0.024) and clinically relevant (Grades B, C; 13.9% vs. 24.0%, P = 0.006) POPF were significantly lower in the PGA than in the control group. Following propensity score matching, the rates of clinically relevant POPF (12.6% vs. 22.4%, P = 0.024) and complications (40.2% vs. 63.8%, P < 0.001) remained significantly lower in the PGA group. Multivariate analysis showed that non-pancreatic disease, greater blood loss, higher body mass index, and non-application of PGA mesh were significantly associated with the development of clinically relevant POPF. CONCLUSIONS PGA mesh reinforcement of pancreaticojejunostomy may prevent POPF as well as reducing overall abdominal complications after PD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The occurrence of post-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after pancreaticoduodenectomy is a challenging issue. The aim was to identify variables on preoperative computed tomography (CT) scan, useful to predict clinically significant POPF (grades B-C) after pancreaticoduodenectomy. METHODS Patients presented POPF after pancreaticoduodenectomy were included from two tertiary referral centres. B/W ratio was defined by ratio of pancreas body thickness (B) to main pancreatic duct (W). The predictive parameters of POPF on CT scan were assessed with a receiving operator characteristics (ROC) curve and intrinsic characteristics. RESULTS Between 2010 and 2013, 186 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy were included. POPF occurred in 25% of them, and was clinically significant in 13%. After univariate analysis, endocrine tumours (P = 0.03), main pancreatic duct size (P < 0.01) and B/W ratio (P = 0.04) were significantly associated with POPF. ROC curve showed a greater area under curve for B/W ratio (0.68) than for main pancreatic duct size (0.33). A 3.8 threshold displayed 80 and 51% for sensibility and specificity, respectively, and a negative predictive value of 94%. A B/W ratio >3.8 increased the rates of post-operative haemorrhage (odds ratio = 4.3 (1.4-13.2), P = 0.01), and reintervention (odds ratio = 3.4 (1.2-9.6), P = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS B/W ratio superior to 3.8 assessed on preoperative CT scan may be an easy tool to predict clinically significant POPF after pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Pancreatic fistulas are one of the most frequent morbidities after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Several reports have suggested a relationship between bacterial infections and postoperative pancreatic fistulas, although details of the mechanisms involved in hemorrhage in association with the fistulas have not been elucidated. This study retrospectively examined the relationship between positive drainage culture and hemorrhage associated with pancreatic fistulas after pancreaticoduodenectomy. METHODS From January 2012 to December 2015, 142 consecutive patients underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy at our institution. We retrospectively reviewed the patients' demographic data, perioperative laboratory data, and drainage culture results. RESULTS Twenty-four (17%) patients had clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistulas, whereas thirty-four (24%) patients experienced positive drainage culture. Multivariable analysis revealed that positive drainage culture was independently associated with clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistulas (odds ratio, 18.1; 95% confidence interval, 5.5-72.2; P < 0.001). Additionally, the prevalence of Candida albicans in the lavage of eight patients significantly correlated with hemorrhage associated with pancreatic fistulas (odds ratio, 43.5; 95% confidence interval, 6.2-513.3; P < 0.001). Seventy-five percent (6/8) of these patients suffered potentially lethal hemorrhagic complications and needed intervention. CONCLUSIONS A positive abdominal drainage culture is associated with the development of pancreatic fistulas. Moreover, the presence of Candida albicans in drainage fluid may be a risk factor for hemorrhagic complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Morbidity after pancreas resection is still high with postoperative pancreatic fistulas (POPF) being the most frequent complication. However, exocrine insufficiency seems to protect from POPF. In clinical practice, patients showing increased postoperative systemic amylase concentrations appear to frequently develop POPF. We therefore retrospectively examined the occurrence of systemic amylase increase after pancreas resections and its association with the clinical course. PATIENTS AND METHODS Perioperative data from 739 consecutive pancreas resections were assessed in a prospectively maintained SPSS database. Serum and drain amylase concentrations were determined by routine clinical chemistry. POPFs were graded into A-C according to ISGPF definitions. RESULTS In patients with reduced serum amylase (n = 89) on day 1 after pancreatoduodenectomy, clinically relevant POPFs were not observed. In patients with normal serum amylase concentrations, clinically relevant POPFs occurred in 9 %, while in 39 % of the patients with more than three times elevated amylase concentrations, a clinically relevant postoperative fistula was observed (p < 0.001). Systemic hyperamylasemia detected on postoperative day 1 after pancreatoduodenectomy was further a good predictor for clinically relevant POPFs (AUROC = 0.797, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Patients with a high risk for developing clinically relevant POPFs can be identified on the first postoperative day by determining serum amylase.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreas surgery has developed into a fairly safe procedure in terms of mortality, but is still hampered by considerable morbidity. Among the most frequent and dreaded complications are the development of a post-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF). The prediction and prevention of POPF remains an area of debate with several questions yet to be firmly addressed with solid answers. METHODS A systematic review of systematic reviews/meta-analyses and randomized trials in the English literature (PubMed/MEDLINE, Cochrane library, EMBASE) covering January 2005 to December 2015 on risk factors and preventive strategies for POPF. RESULTS A total of 49 systematic reviews and meta-analyses over the past decade discussed patient, surgeon, pancreatic disease and intraoperative related factors of POPF. Non-modifiable factors (age, BMI, comorbidity) and pathology (histotype, gland texture, duct size) that indicates surgery are associated with POPF risk. Consideration of anastomotic technique and use of somatostatin-analogs may slightly modify the risk of fistula. Sealant products appear to have no effect. Perioperative bleeding and transfusion enhance risk, but is modifiable by focus on technique and training. Drains may not prevent fistulae, but may help in early detection. Early drain-amylase may aid in detection. Predictive scores lack uniform validation, but may have a role in patient information if reliable pre-operative risk factors can be obtained. CONCLUSIONS Development of POPF occurs through several demonstrated risk factors. Anastomotic technique and use of somatostatin-analogs may slightly decrease risk. Drains may aid in early detection of leaks, but do not prevent POPF.

Abstract
AIM To analyze the risk factors for pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy. METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of 539 successive cases of pancreaticoduodenectomy performed at our hospital from March 2012 to October 2015. Pancreatic fistula was diagnosed in strict accordance with the definition of pancreatic fistula from the International Study Group on Pancreatic Fistula. The risk factors for pancreatic fistula were analyzed by univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis. RESULTS A total of 269 (49.9%) cases of pancreatic fistula occurred after pancreaticoduodenectomy, including 71 (13.17%) cases of grade A pancreatic fistula, 178 (33.02%) cases of grade B, and 20 (3.71%) cases of grade C. Univariate analysis showed no significant correlation between postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) and the following factors: age, hypertension, alcohol consumption, smoking, history of upper abdominal surgery, preoperative jaundice management, preoperative bilirubin, preoperative albumin, pancreatic duct drainage, intraoperative blood loss, operative time, intraoperative blood transfusion, Braun anastomosis, and pancreaticoduodenectomy (with or without pylorus preservation). Conversely, a significant correlation was observed between POPF and the following factors: gender (male vs female: 54.23% vs 42.35%, P = 0.008), diabetes (non-diabetic vs diabetic: 51.61% vs 39.19%, P = 0.047), body mass index (BMI) (≤ 25 vs > 25: 46.94% vs 57.82%, P = 0.024), blood glucose level (≤ 6.0 mmol/L vs > 6.0 mmol/L: 54.75% vs 41.14%, P = 0.002), pancreaticojejunal anastomosis technique (pancreatic duct-jejunum double-layer mucosa-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunal anastomosis vs pancreatic-jejunum single-layer mucosa-to-mucosa anastomosis: 57.54% vs 35.46%, P = 0.000), diameter of the pancreatic duct (≤ 3 mm vs > 3 mm: 57.81% vs 38.36%, P = 0.000), and pancreatic texture (soft vs hard: 56.72% vs 29.93%, P = 0.000). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that gender (male), BMI > 25, pancreatic duct-jejunum double-layer mucosa-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunal anastomosis, pancreatic duct diameter ≤ 3 mm, and soft pancreas were risk factors for pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy. CONCLUSION Gender (male), BMI > 25, pancreatic duct-jejunum double-layer mucosa-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunal anastomosis, pancreatic duct diameter ≤ 3 mm, and soft pancreas were risk factors for pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Previous studies that investigated the association between body mass index (BMI) and pancreatectomy outcomes have produced conflicting conclusions. We conducted this meta-analysis to assess the association between them. METHODS We searched PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases up to December 28, 2014. Patients were divided into high-BMI group (BMI ≥ 25 kg/m) and normal-BMI group (BMI < 25 kg/m). Postoperative and intraoperative outcomes were evaluated. Meta-regression and subgroup analysis were performed to evaluate any factors accountable for the heterogeneity. Meta-analysis was performed using a random-effect model. RESULTS We included 22 studies involving 8994 patients. Patients in the high-BMI group had significantly increased postoperative pancreatic fistula rate (odds ratio [OR],1.96; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.43-2.67), delayed gastric emptying rate (OR, 1.62; 95% CI, 1.15-2.29), wound infection rate (OR, 1.43; 95% CI, 1.07-1.93), operation time (mean difference [MD],15; 95% CI, 13.40-16.60), blood loss (MD, 270.71; 95% CI, 248.93-292.49), and length of hospital stay (MD, 2.87; 95% CI, 1.51-4.24). For modest heterogeneity in postoperative pancreatic fistula, regional distribution tended to be the contributor. CONCLUSIONS High BMI not only increased the surgical difficulty but also decreased the surgical safety for pancreatectomy.

Abstract
Pancreato-duodenectomy (PD) is the treatment of choice for periampullary tumors, and currently, indications have been extended to benign disease, including symptomatic chronic pancreatitis, paraduodenal pancreatitis, and benign periampullary tumors that are not amenable to conservative surgery. In spite of a significant decrease in mortality in high volume centers over the last three decades (from>20% in the 1980s to<5% today), morbidity remains high, ranging from 30% to 50%. The most common complications are related to the pancreatic remnant, such as postoperative pancreatic fistula, anastomotic dehiscence, abscess, and hemorrhage, and are among the highest of all surgical complications following intra-abdominal gastro-intestinal anastomoses. Moreover, pancreatico-enteric anastomotic breakdown remains a life-threatening complication. For these reasons, the management of the pancreatic stump following resection is still one of the most hotly debated issues in digestive surgery; more than 80 different methods of pancreatico-enteric reconstructions having been described, and no gold standard has yet been defined. In this review, we analyzed the current trends in the surgical management of the pancreatic remnant after PD.
