ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
This study examined the preoperative and postoperative variables associated with 1 year and long-term insulin independence following total pancreatectomy and islet autotransplantation (TPIAT).METHODS:
46 TPIAT patients from 2010 to 2022 in a single hospital system were retrospectively analyzed. Pre- and postoperative variables were compared between short-term (1 year) and long-term (last follow-up after year 1) insulin-independent versus -dependent patients.RESULTS:
Nine (20%) and seven (15%) patients achieved short- and long-term insulin independence, respectively. The patients were followed up for a median of 2.8 years (interquartile range [IQR] 1.0, 4.7). Short-term insulin independence was associated with higher median transplanted islet equivalents (IEQ) per kg (6981 vs 4493, P = .02), lower units of basal insulin on discharge (7 vs 12, P = .009), and lower rates of discharge with an insulin regimen (67% vs 100%, P = .006). Odds of short-term insulin independence increased by 80% for every 1000 increase in IEQ per kg (OR 1.80, CI 1.18-3.12, P = .005) and decreased by 32% for every additional basal unit of insulin on discharge (OR 0.68, CI 0.42-0.91, P = .003) on average. Long-term insulin independence was also associated with transplanted IEQ per kg. No patient on antihyperglycemic medication before surgery achieved insulin independence.CONCLUSION:
Short- and long-term insulin independence after TPIAT is associated with higher transplanted IEQ per kg and immediate postoperative variables that can be used to inform the discussions clinicians have with their patients regarding glycemic prognosis following TPIAT.Palavras-chave
