ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
To find the appropriate method of pancreatic transection during distal pancreatectomy (DP), we retrospectively compared post-operative complications including postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) according to the different types of pancreatic transection.METHODS:
This study included 169 patients who underwent pancreatic transection using an ultrasonic activated device (USAD) with transfixion of the pancreatic duct (DP-TF group, n = 89), USAD followed by pancreaticogastrostomy (DP-PG group, n = 44), and a reinforced linear tristapler (DP-ST, n = 36).RESULTS:
Overall and POPF-related complications in DP-PG group, and delayed gastric emptying (DGE) in DP-ST group were significantly lower than DP-TF group. There were no significant difference in overall complication, length of hospitalization and operative costs between DP-PG and DP-ST groups. Operative time was significantly longer in DP-PG group than others.CONCLUSION:
Both DP-PG and DP-ST are associated with better surgical outcomes. Regarding ease of surgical technique, shorter operative times, and similar medical costs, DP with a reinforced linear tristapler is a good choice during DP.Palavras-chave
