Minimizing Occurrence of Pancreatic Fistula during Pancreatoduodenec - tomy ( Pd ) Procedure : An Update

چکیده
What is PD? Pancreatico-duodenectomy is a surgical term applied to the procedure of removal of various extents of pancreas and duodenum. Although the term itself is incomplete as to the extent of removal of organs as it also encompasses removal of common hepatic, common bile duct and gall bladder as well as shown in (Figure 1). Chiefly this procedure is performed in cases of pancreatic head cancer both as a therapeutic and palliative treatment. It’s one of the surgical procedures that demands optimal surgical skills and vigilance as with the success also, the patient can succumb into great deal of morbidity, chiefly pertaining to the digestive system.

Division of surgeon workload in pancreaticoduodenectomy: striving to decrease post‐operative pancreatic fistula
BACKGROUND Many studies have reported factors affecting pancreatic leakage after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), but there have been few reports on surgeon workload and post-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF). This study was conducted to explore whether a surgeon's workload during PD impacts the occurrence of POPF. METHODS We retrospectively analysed 270 consecutive patients who underwent PD b...

BACKGROUND The morbidity associated with pancreatic fistula formation after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) still remains high. While theoretically 2-stage pancreatojejunostomy (PJ) is effective for preventing pancreatic juice enzymes from becoming activated by enteric contents, its clinical usefulness remains unknown. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the short-term results of t...

BACKGROUND Most morbidity and mortality are caused by a pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), and its prevention is the major concern. We applied the omental roll-up technique around pancreaticojejunostomy and investigated the effectiveness of this technique to prevent a pancreatic fistula. DESIGN Retrospective study.

متن کاملAre Internal or External Pancreatic Duct Stents the Preferred Choice for Patients Undergoing Pancreaticoduodenectomy? A Meta-Analysis
The technique of pancreatic duct stenting during pancreatic anastomosis can markedly reduce the incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula (PF) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). The method of drainage includes using either an external or an internal stent; the meta-analysis result shows us that there were no differences in the rates of postoperative complications between PD using internal ...
متن کاملIn search of the best reconstructive technique after pancreaticoduodenectomy: pancreaticojejunostomy versus pancreaticogastrostomy.
BACKGROUND It has been suggested that pancreaticogastrostomy (PG) is a safer reconstruction than pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ), resulting in lower morbidity, including lower pancreatic leak rates and decreased postoperative mortality. We compared PJ and PG after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). METHODS A randomized clinical trial was designed. It was stopped with 50% accrual. Patients underwent ei...
