RESUMO

Pancreatic surgery is complex and associated with higher rates of morbidity and mortality compared to other abdominal surgeries. Over the past decade, the introduction of new technologies, such as minimally invasive approaches, improvements in multimodal treatments, advancements in anesthesia and perioperative care, and better management of complications, have collectively improved patient outcomes after pancreatic surgery. In particular, the adoption of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) recommendations has reduced hospital stays and improved recovery times, as well as post-operative outcomes. The aim of this narrative review is to highlight the surgeon's perspective on the ERAS program for pancreatic surgery, with a focus on its potential advantages for perioperative functional recovery outcomes.

RESUMO

Objective: Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a common and challenging complication following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), occurring in 2% to 46% of cases. Despite various pancreaticojejunostomy techniques, an effective method to prevent POPF has not been established. This study aimed to develop and evaluate a novel 3D-printed biodegradable pancreatic duct stent to simplify the surgical process of pancreaticojejunostomy, reduce anastomotic complexity, and minimize postoperative complications. Methods: Data from 32 patients undergoing total laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy were utilized. Preoperative CT scans were transformed into 3D reconstructions to guide the design and printing of customized stents using polylactic acid (PLA). The stents were assessed for mechanical integrity, surface texture, and thermal stability. Animal experiments were conducted on 16 mini pigs, with the experimental group receiving the novel stent and the control group receiving traditional silicone stents. Results: The 3D-printed stents demonstrated accurate dimensional replication and mechanical reliability. In the animal experiments, the experimental group showed no significant difference in postoperative complications compared to the control group. At 4 weeks post-surgery, CT scans revealed well-healed anastomoses in both groups, with no significant inflammation or other complications. Histological examination and 3D reconstruction models confirmed good healing and device positioning in the experimental group. Conclusion: The 3D-printed biodegradable pancreatic duct stent offers a promising solution for pancreaticojejunostomy, with comparable safety and efficacy to traditional methods. Further research is needed to validate its clinical application.

RESUMO

A man in his 60s developed a pancreatic pseudocyst postoperatively after an open graft replacement for a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm. Endoscopic drainage was performed; however, this led to an aortic graft infection due to macroscopic communication with the perigraft cavity. Percutaneous drainage was performed to manage the pancreatic fistula and graft infection simultaneously. Although the pancreatic pseudocyst diminished, the aortic graft infection persisted. Subsequently, partial aortic graft replacement with greater omental flap coverage was performed. He was discharged with oral antibiotics, with no recurrence of infections at 10 months.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Pancreaticoduodenectomy is a highly difficult and invasive type of gastrointestinal surgery. Prevention of postoperative pancreatic fistula is important, and this may be possible by the stapler method. METHODS: STRAP-PD is a single center randomized controlled trial. We compare a method of transecting the pancreatic parenchyma in pancreaticoduodenectomy using a surgical stapler device with a conventional transecting method using energy devices (e.g., scalpel, ultrasonic coagulator and incision devices). Patients with soft pancreas who are scheduled to undergo pancreaticoduodenectomy are randomized to arm A (conventional method) or arm B (stapler method). We aim to examine the safety and usefulness of dissection by the automatic suture device, with attention to the rate of pancreatic fistula ISGPF grade B or C and to postoperative complications. This is a single-center randomized study, which began in September 2023 at Wakayama Medical University Hospital. DISCUSSION: Pancreatic parenchymal transection is typically performed either by direct incision using a scalpel or by employing energy devices such as ultrasonic coagulating cutting devices during pancreaticoduodenectomy. In a prospective pilot study, we conducted pancreatic parenchymal transection in 20 consecutive normal pancreatic cases during pancreaticoduodenectomy, observing postoperative pancreatic fistula grade B in one case (5%). Traditional methods involving scalpel incision or the use of ultrasonic coagulating cutting devices have been historically favored but perceived as technically challenging, and they have been reliant upon the surgeon's skill. Notably, relatively high incidences of postoperative pancreatic fistula among patients with soft pancreas have also been observed. Our proposed stapler method may therefore be a useful method responsible for reducing the development of pancreatic fistula. This method would be as part of minimally-invasive surgery for pancreaticoduodenectomy. It uses an endoscopic linear stapler to cut the pancreatic parenchyma, so it is likely to be more convenient than conventional methods and can be used universally.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The recent International Study Group for Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) risk classification for postoperative pancreatic fistula (grade B/C) was developed based on data from open and mixed minimally invasive pancreatoduodenectomy. The ISGPS risk classification model has not been validated specifically for POPF after robotic pancreatoduodenectomy (RPD). METHODS: We calculated the rate of POPF (ISGPS 2016 definition, grade B/C) by analyzing consecutive patients after RPD by surgeons after their learning curves (80 RPDs per surgeon). The validation of the ISGPS 4-tier and the simplified 3-tier risk classification was conducted using the area under the receiver operating curve (AUC). RESULTS: From 2019 to 2023, 187 patients after RPD were included. Neither the ISGPS 4-tier nor the simplified 3-tier classification model showed robust discrimination (AUC: 0.696 and 0.685, respectively). Moreover, both risk classifications failed to differentiate the rates of POPF and major complications among subgroups. Multivariate analysis suggested that soft pancreatic texture and pancreatic duct ≤ 2 mm were independent risk factors for POPF after RPD. After adjusting the duct size's cutoff from 3 to 2 mm, the revised 4-tier "2 mm" classification model showed no significant difference between risk categories B and C (6.7% vs. 9.4%, P = 0.063). The revised 3-tier "2 mm" classification model stratified patients into A (n = 54), B (n = 68), and C (n = 65) groups, with corresponding POPF rates of 0.0%, 8.8%, and 23.1% (P < 0.001), and major complication rates of 5.6, 14.7, and 24.6% (P = 0.014), respectively. Compared to the simplified 3-tier classification model, the revised 3-tier "2 mm" classification model showed improved discrimination (AUC: 0.753 vs. 0.685, P = 0.034) and clinical utility. CONCLUSIONS: The current ISGPS 4-tier and the simplified 3-tier classification models lacked sufficient discrimination in patients after RPD. We propose a revised 3-tier "2 mm" risk classification model for RPD with a robust discrimination, which requires further international validation with prospectively obtained data.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: To determine whether ligamentum teres hepatis and falciform ligament, wrapped around the gastroduodenal artery (GDA) and reinforced the posterior wall in pancreatojejunostomy (PJ), protects the GDA stump and other skeletal blood vessels from erosive hemorrhage and reduces the incidence of clinically relevant post-operative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) and post-operative complications after laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD). METHODS: We reviewed patients undergone LPD between January 2019 and June 2023. Patients were divided into two groups according to whether the ligamentous flap had been used to wrap the GDA stump (Group A) or to reinforce the posterior wall in PJ, together with the GDA wrapping procedure (Group B). Peri-operative data were reviewed to determine the effectiveness of this approach in preventing CR-POPF, post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH), and other complications. RESULTS: We enrolled 272 patients (Group A, 154 patients; Group B, 118 patients). Group B patients had significantly fewer ≥ Grade II Clavien-Dindo classification morbidities and CR-POPFs (P < 0.05), and lower length of hospital stay (LOS) and abdominal drainage tube insertion times. Risk factor analysis indicated that main pancreatic duct dilation, the PJ reinforcement procedure, and soft pancreatic tissue were associated with ≥Grade II Clavien-Dindo morbidities and CR-POPF complications. CONCLUSIONS: The ligamentous flap application in LPD provided shelter to GDA stump and other skeletal blood vessels under PJ from erosive digestive juices, reinforced the posterior wall in PJ, reduced the incidence of CR-POPF and ≥Grade II Clavien-Dindo classification morbidities. This simple procedure is effective for improving surgical safety of LPD.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Postoperative pancreatic fistula is a severe complication of pancreaticoduodenectomy. Using an externalized pancreatic stent is a potential mitigation strategy not previously studied in Latin America. METHODS: Pancreaticoduodenectomies performed in a single center between 2006 and 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Clinical variables were collected with a 90-day follow-up according to stent intervention: externalized stent (ES), internal stent (IS), or no stent. Before and after ES implementation (2016) periods were also compared. RESULTS: Out of 237 patients, 77 (32.5 â€‹%) had an ES, 24 (10.1 â€‹%) an IS, and 136 (57.4 â€‹%) none. No difference was found in the overall incidence of POPF. The use of an ES was associated with less type C POPF, despite having an increased risk for fistula development. PD performed after 2016 were also associated with a reduced incidence of type C POPF, surgical reintervention requirement, POPF-associated mortality, and intrahospital stay. CONCLUSIONS: The use of an ES is a low-cost intervention that can mitigate POPF severity in high-risk patients.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: We previously reported that an extended antibiotic mitigation pathway following pancreatoduodenectomy in patients with intermediate-/high-risk glands is associated with 83 % lower odds of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF). We now describe associations between the pathway, resource utilization, and hospital charges. METHODS: We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent elective pancreatoduodenectomy with soft gland texture and fistula risk score (FRS) ≥3 who received standard or extended antibiotics. Hospital charges and resource utilization within 90 days of surgery were compared by CR-POPF status and antibiotic pathway. RESULTS: A total of 34 patients received extended antibiotics and 53 received standard antibiotics. In patients with CR-POPF, patients who received extended antibiotics had lower likelihood of surgical or percutaneous reintervention (75.0 % vs. 100.0 %, p = 0.022). Ninety-day postoperative charges associated with CR-POPF were higher than no CR-POPF ($60,527 vs. $25,631, p = 0.028). Our risk-based model predicted a $15,825 decrease in hospital charges per patient receiving extended antibiotics. CONCLUSIONS: CR-POPF is associated with higher 90-day hospital charges. Extended antibiotic therapy following pancreatoduodenectomy in patients with soft gland texture and FRS ≥3 is associated with fewer reinterventions in patients who develop CR-POPF. These outcomes will be formally tested in a randomized controlled trial (NCT05753735).

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) continues to be the most common complication after distal pancreatectomy (DP). Recent advancements in surgical techniques have established minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy (MIDP) as the standard treatment for various conditions, including pancreatic cancer. However, MIDP has not demonstrated a clear advantage over open DP in terms of POPF rates, indicating the need for additional strategies to prevent POPF in MIDP. This trial (WRAP study) aims to evaluate the efficacy of wrapping the pancreatic stump with polyglycolic acid (PGA) mesh and fibrin glue in preventing clinically relevant (CR-) POPF following MIDP. METHODS: This multicenter, randomized controlled trial will include patients scheduled for laparoscopic or robotic DP for tumors in the pancreatic body and/or tail. Eligible participants will be centrally randomized into either the control group (Group A) or the intervention group (Group B), where the pancreatic stump will be reinforced by PGA mesh and fibrin glue. In both groups, pancreatic transection will be performed using a bioabsorbable reinforcement-attached stapler. A total of 172 patients will be enrolled across 14 high-volume centers in Japan. The primary endpoint is the incidence of CR-POPF (International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery grade B/C). DISCUSSION: The WRAP study will determine whether the reinforcement of the pancreatic stump with PGA mesh and fibrin glue, a technique whose utility has been previously debated, could become the best practice in the era of MIDP, thereby enhancing its safety. TRIAL REGISTRATION: This trial was registered with the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials on June 15, 2024 (jRCTs032240120).

RESUMO

Background: Preoperative risk assessment of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) is still lacking. This study aimed to develop and validate a combined model based on radiomics, pancreatic duct diameter, and body composition analysis for the prediction of CR-POPF in patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Methods: Multivariable logistic regression was used to construct a combined model in conjunction with radiomics score (Rad-score), pancreatic duct diameter, and visceral fat area/total abdominal muscle area index (VFA/TAMAI). The models were internally validated using 1,000 bootstrap resamples. The predictive performance of these models was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration curves, and decision curve analysis (DCA). Results: The preoperative combined model was validated by 1,000 bootstrap resampling with the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.839 (95% confidence interval: 0.757-0.907). The calibration curves and DCA showed that the combined model outperformed the clinical model and radiomics model. The combined model was presented as a web-based calculator (https://whyyjyljz.shinyapps.io/DynNomapp/). Conclusions: We explored a method of combining radiomics features, pancreatic duct diameter, and body composition analysis predictors in preoperative assessment for risk of CR-POPF and developed a combined model that showed relatively good performance, but future studies with a larger sample size are needed to verify the stability and generalizability of this model.

RESUMO

Aim: Pancreatic reconstruction after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) that leaves a small remnant pancreas is often difficult. Pancreatic fistula is a major complication after PD, and fistulas are rare in patients with hard pancreas. However, the clinical impact of non-reconstructed small remnant after PD with hard pancreas is unknown. Methods: We included all patients who underwent PD for pancreatic tumor without pancreatic reconstruction in two institutions supervised by one surgeon between January 2004 and March 2021. Their short- or long-term outcome after surgery was retrospectively analyzed. Results: PD was performed in 774 patients, of whom 16 patients were without reconstruction (2.1%) with negative margins at the pancreatic stump. Pancreatic transection was performed above or to the left of the superior mesenteric artery, with a median remnant pancreas length of 3.7 cm (range, 1.3-10.0). A major complication (≥ Clavien-Dindo Grade IIIa) occurred in one patient (6%). Fistula of grade B occurred in one patient (6%). After a median follow-up of 44 months (95%CI, 10.6-77.3), insulin administration was unnecessary in 11 patients. Conclusion: The preservation of a small pancreatic remnant without reconstruction after PD can be performed safely and may enable the keeping of pancreatic endocrine function for some selected patients with hard pancreas.

RESUMO

Aim: The aim of this study was to clarify the significance of blood culture testing in the postoperative period of pancreatoduodectomy (PD), a highly invasive surgery. Methods: Rates of blood culture sampling and positivity were investigated for febrile episodes (FEs) in patients who underwent PD (2016-2021). FEs were defined as body temperature of 38.0°C or higher occurring on or after the 4th postoperative day. Fever origin was diagnosed retrospectively, and FEs were classified as pancreatic fistula (PF)-related or PF-unrelated FEs. Factors correlated with blood culture positivity were explored. Results: Among 339 patients who underwent PD, 99 experienced 202 FEs. Blood culture testing was performed on 160 FEs occurring in 89 patients. The sampling and positivity rates were 79.2% and 17.5%, respectively, per episode and 89.9% and 28.1%, respectively, per patient. Thirty-six FEs were classified as PF-related and 124 were classified as PF-unrelated FEs. The blood culture positivity rate was significantly lower in PF-related vs. PF-unrelated FEs (1/36 vs. 27/124, respectively, p = 0.006). The blood culture positivity rate was significantly higher in patients with cholangitis, catheter-related blood stream infection, and urinary tract infection than PF-related FEs. Multivariate analysis showed that blood culture positivity was negatively associated with PF-related FEs and positively associated with accompanying symptoms of shivering, Pitt Bacteremia Score, and preoperative biliary drainage. Conclusions: Patients who underwent PD showed relatively high blood culture positivity rates. Based on these results, it may be possible to distinguish PF-related and -unrelated FEs.

RESUMO

Introduction Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a common complication of pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) that may cause lethal complications. Therefore, it is important to properly treat POPF and prevent its aggravation during the postoperative management of PD. We have used a combination of open drainage, in which the wound above the fluid collection is opened, and negative pressure wound therapy with instillation and dwell time (NPWTi-d) to manage POPF after PD. To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of this combination treatment, we analyzed the outcomes of patients with POPF after PD. Methods Patients who underwent PD were reviewed and those who developed POPF were extracted and divided into three groups according to the management of POPF: N group (patients treated with open drainage and NPWTi-d), O group (patients treated with open drainage without NPWTi-d), and C group (patients treated with catheter drainage). The perioperative outcomes were compared among the three groups. Results During the study period, 133 patients underwent PD, out of which 39 (29%) developed POPF (≥grade B). Among the 39 patients with POPF, eight, four, and 27 were classified into the N, O, and C group, respectively. No mortality was observed in the patients with POPF. No severe complications were observed in the patients who underwent open drainage (N and O groups), while two patients in the C group developed severe complications. Among the patients who underwent open drainage, the N group tended to have a shorter postoperative hospital stay than the O group. Conclusions The current study suggests that open drainage safely and effectively healed POPF and NPWTi-d promoted wound closure. The combination of open drainage and NPWTi-d may prevent the aggravation of POPF, reduce failure to rescue, and shorten hospital stay after PD.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Although distal pancreatectomy (DP) is crucial for the treatment of pancreatic diseases, it often leads to postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF), a complication with significant management challenges and health effects. Despite the use of various techniques, including suturing methods, staplers, and biodegradable materials, the optimal strategy to reduce POPF remains unclear. This study investigated the combined use of powered staplers and polyglycolic acid (PGA) sheets to mitigate POPF. METHODS: This study retrospectively analyzed the data of 165 patients who underwent DP at Sapporo Medical University Hospital between January 2013 and August 2023. This study compared the incidence of clinically relevant POPF (CR-POPF) between patients treated without (group O, n = 50) and with powered staplers and PGA sheets (group P, n = 115). In addition, the surgical techniques, patient demographics, and postoperative outcomes were examined. RESULTS: This study found no significant difference in the overall incidence of POPF between the groups. However, group P had a significantly lower incidence of CR-POPF than group O (20.9% vs 40.0%, respectively; P = .011). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that male sex (odds ratio [OR], 2.81; 95% CI, 1.26-6.26; P = .012) and pancreatic thickness of more than 14 mm (OR, 2.85; 95% CI, 1.17-6.95; P = .021) were independent risk factors for CR-POPF. The use of powered staplers and PGA sheets (OR, 0.38; 95% CI, 0.17-0.85; P = .017) was associated with reduced CR-POPF risk. CONCLUSION: The combined use of powered staplers and PGA sheets can significantly decrease the incidence of CR-POPF in patients with DP.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a major complication of distal pancreatectomy (DP). Although the visceral fat area (VFA) is a risk factor for POPF in DP, its measurement is complicated. This study aimed to identify a simple marker as a predictive indicator of POPF. METHODS: We included 210 patients who underwent resection at our institution between 2020 and 2023. The patients' characteristics, preoperative laboratory data, and radiographic findings (e.g., portal vein distance and VFA) and their association with pancreatic fistula after DP were analyzed. POPF was defined as Grade B or C pancreatic fistula on the basis of the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery 2016 consensus. RESULTS: POPF developed in 82 (39.0%) patients. Univariate analysis showed that female sex, pancreatic thickness of the cutting line, operative time, blood loss, C-reactive protein (CRP) level on postoperative day (POD) 3, drain amylase level on POD 3, VFA, and the peritoneum to portal vein distance (PPD) were associated with POPF. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis of PPD showed a higher area under the curve than VFA (cutoff for PPD: 68 mm). Multivariate analysis showed that CRP (odds ratio [OR]: 2.214), drain amylase (OR: 2.875), and PPD (OR: 15.538) were independent risk factors. When we compared the DP fistula risk score and PPD, receiver operating characteristic analysis showed areas under the curve of 0.650 and 0.803, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: A PPD of ≥68 mm is a useful risk predictor of POPF. Determining this distance is simple and easily applicable in the clinical setting.

RESUMO

BACKGROUNDS: The use of drains in pancreatic surgery remains controversial. The present study investigated postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy (MIDP) without intraperitoneal drain placement. METHODS: Data of consecutive patients undergoing MIDP between 2013 and 2023 were prospectively collected. Patients were divided in drain group (DG), including patients with prophylactic abdominal drain placed, and no-drain group (NDG) including those without drain. The groups were compared in terms of postoperative outcomes, using a propensity score-matched analysis. RESULTS: 116 patients were selected. After matching, DG and NDG consisted of 29 patients each. The rates of POPF and abdominal collection were lower in NDG in comparison to DG (3.4% vs. 27.6%, p 0.025 and 3.4% vs. 31.0%, p 0.011, respectively). The length of stay was significantly shorter in the NDG (5 vs. 9 days, p < 0.001). No difference between the groups was found for other outcomes. CONCLUSION: Drain omission was associated with lower rates of POPF and abdominal collections, as well as shorter hospital stays, not affecting the rate of severe complication, reoperation and readmission.

RESUMO

The establishment of a postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is considered the most common and, concomitantly, the most serious complication associated with pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). The search for either technical modifications of the operative technique or pharmaceutical interventions that could possibly aid in decreasing the incidence of this often-devastating complication appears justified. The stenting of the pancreatic duct, with the use of either internal or external stents, has been evaluated in this direction. In theory, it is an approach that could eliminate many pathophysiological factors responsible for the occurrence of a POPF. The purpose of the present study was to review the current data regarding the role of pancreatic duct stenting on the incidence of POPF, after PD, by using PubMed and Reference Citation Analysis. In general, previous studies seem to highlight the superiority of external stents over their internal counterparts in regard to the incidence of POPF; this is at the cost, however, of increased morbidity associated mainly with the stent removal. Certainly, the use of an internal stent is a less invasive approach with acceptable results and is definitely deprived of the drawbacks arising through the complete diversion of pancreatic juice from the gastrointestinal tract. Bearing in mind the scarcity of high-quality data on the subject, an approach of reserving stent placement for the high-risk for POPF patients and individualizing the selection between the use of an internal or an external stent according to the distinct characteristics of each individual case scenario appears appropriate.

RESUMO

Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of drain fluid lipase as an early predictor of postoperative pancreatic fistula and establish the most appropriate day for their measure. Background: Clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula remains a potentially life-threatening complication after pancreatic surgery. Early detection strategies remain key to reduce both the incidence and the burden of pancreatic fistula. Methods: The LIPAse DRAIN (LIPADRAIN) study is a multicenter, prospective diagnostic study conducted in 7 tertiary university hospitals. Drain fluid values to detect clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula from postoperative day 1 to postoperative day 6 were evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. A biomarker was considered to be relevant for clinical use if its area under the curve (AUC) was greater than 0.75. Results: Of the 625 patients included in the analysis, clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula occurred in 203 (32%) patients. On postoperative days 3 and 4, drain fluid lipase was a reliable biomarker to detect clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (AUC: 0.761; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.761-0.799 and AUC: 0.784; 95% CI: 0.743-0.821, respectively). On postoperative day 3, with a threshold of 299 units/L, drain fluid lipase yielded a negative predictive value of 51%, sensitivity of 78%, and specificity of 63% for the detection of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula. Conclusions: In this multicenter prospective study, drain fluid lipase is a reliable biomarker at postoperative days 3 and 4 for the diagnosis of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula after pancreatic surgery and should be systematically measured on postoperative day 3.

RESUMO

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and clinical impact of minimally invasive pancreatoduodenectomy (MIPD) versus open pancreatoduodenectomy (OPD) on postoperative nutritional and immunological indices. Background: The surgical advantages of MIPD over OPD are controversial, and the postoperative nutritional and immunological statuses are unknown. Methods: In total, 306 patients who underwent MIPD (n = 120) or OPD (n = 186) for periampullary tumors from April 2016 to February 2024 were analyzed. Surgical outcomes and postoperative nutritional and immunological indices (albumin, prognostic nutritional index [PNI], neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio [NLR], and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio [PLR]) were examined by 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) with well-matched background characteristics. Results: PSM resulted in 2 balanced groups of 99 patients each. Compared with OPD, MIPD was significantly associated with less estimated blood loss (P < 0.0001), fewer intraoperative blood transfusions (P = 0.001), longer operative time, shorter postoperative hospital stay (P < 0.0001), fewer postoperative complications (P = 0.001) (especially clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula [P = 0.018]), and a higher rate of textbook outcome achievement (70.7% vs 48.5%, P = 0.001). The number of dissected lymph nodes and the R0 resection rate did not differ between the 2 groups. In elective cases with textbook outcome achievement, the change rates of albumin, PNI, NLR, and PLR from before to after surgery were equivalent in both groups. Conclusions: MIPD has several surgical advantages (excluding a prolonged operative time), and it enhances the achievement of textbook outcomes over OPD. However, the postoperative nutritional and immunological statuses are equivalent for both procedures.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Surgical treatment for a benign or low-grade malignant tumor in the pancreatic head remains a challenge at present. As an organ-sparing procedure, enucleation is ideal. However, it is still controversial whether laparoscopic enucleation (LapEN) can be safely performed for a pancreatic head tumor, especially a deeply embedded one. METHODS: The cases who underwent LapEN of a pancreatic tumor from January 2014 to September 2022 in our hospital were collected and analyzed. RESULTS: A total of 151 cases were collected. The incidence of pancreatic fistula (PF, grade B) was 21.9 %. No patient developed PF (grade C) or died. Compared with enucleating a tumor in the distal pancreas (N = 98), enucleating a tumor in the pancreatic head (N = 53) showed a longer operation time and a higher incidence of conversion. The cases with a tumor in the pancreatic head were then divided into the group with a deeply embedded tumor (N = 32) and the group with a superficial tumor (N = 21). The embedded group had a smaller tumor size and a higher proportion of insulinoma. There were no statistical differences in the parameters of operation time, blood loss and incidence of complications between the two groups. The outcomes of enucleating a tumor deeply embedded in the proximal and distal pancreas were further analyzed, which indicated no statistical differences in clinical parameters between the two groups. CONCLUSION: LapEN of a tumor in the pancreatic head is feasible and safe, even for a deeply embedded tumor.
