ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES:
This study aimed to assess the outcomes and characteristics of post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH) in over 1000 patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) at a high-volume hepatopancreaticobiliary center.METHODS:
This retrospective study analyzed consecutive patients who underwent PD from 2010 through 2021. PPH was diagnosed and managed using our algorithm based on timing of onset and location of hemorrhage.RESULTS:
Of 1096 patients who underwent PD, 33 patients (3.0%) had PPH; incidence of in-hospital and 90-day mortality relevant to PPH were one patient (3.0%) and zero patients, respectively. Early (≤24 h after surgery) and late (>24 h) PPH affected 9 patients and 24 patients, respectively; 16 patients experienced late-extraluminal PPH. The incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula (p < 0.001), abdominal infection (p < 0.001), highest values of drain fluid amylase (DFA) within 3 days, and highest value of C-reactive protein (CRP) within 3 days after surgery (DFA p < 0.001) (CRP p = 0.010) were significantly higher in the late-extraluminal-PPH group. The highest values of DFA≥10000U/l (p = 0.022), CRP≥15 mg/dl (p < 0.001), and incidence of abdominal infection (p = 0.004) were identified as independent risk factors for PPH in the multivariate analysis. Although the hospital stay was significantly longer in the late-extraluminal-PPH group (p < 0.001), discharge to patient's home (p = 0.751) and readmission rate within 30-day (p = 0.765) and 90-day (p = 0.062) did not differ between groups.CONCLUSIONS:
Standardized management of PPH according to the onset and source of hemorrhage minimizes the incidence of serious deterioration and mortality. High-risk patients with PPH can be predicted based on the DFA values, CRP levels, and incidence of abdominal infections.Palavras-chave
