Removing part of the pancreas is an operation with a risk of major blood loss. Tranexamic acid is a drug thought to reduce blood loss. This study asked the question, 'Does tranexamic acid reduce blood loss during surgery on the pancreas?' Half of patients received tranexamic acid during surgery. The other half received only standard care. This study showed that tranexamic acid did not decrease the blood loss during the surgery and may have little effect in patients having a pancreaticoduodenectomy.
