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.
