Ramírez-Arbeláez JA, Arroyave-Zuluaga RL, Barrera-Lozano LM, Hurtado V, González-Arroyave D, Ardila CM. Relationship between Intraoperative Bile Culture Outcomes and Subsequent Postoperative Infectious Complications: A Retrospective Cohort Study. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024; 2024:3930130. [PMID: 38803514 PMCID: PMC11129905 DOI: 10.1155/2024/3930130] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2023] [Revised: 04/15/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
The presence of positive bile culture during intraoperative procedures has been associated with elevated morbidity and mortality rates in hepatobiliopancreatic surgeries, contributing to increased healthcare expenditures. However, the precise impact of bactobilia on the development of postoperative complications remains uncertain due to existing disparities in the published literature. In this retrospective cohort study, we assessed 137 patients who underwent major hepatobiliopancreatic surgery to examine the relationship between intraoperative bile culture outcomes and subsequent postoperative infectious complications. Among patients with bactobilia, a significant 35.1% exhibited systemic or local infectious complications, whereas only 11.1% of those with negative culture results experienced any infectious complications (p = 0.002). Similarly, a notable difference was observed in the incidence of surgical site infections, with 24.3% in the bactobilia group compared to 7.9% in the negative culture group (p = 0.01). A total of 74 monomicrobial cultures with microbiological growth were isolated, predominantly featuring Gram-negative microorganisms, primarily Enterobacteriaceae in 49 cultures. Escherichia coli was identified in 37.8% of positive cultures, while Klebsiella pneumoniae was evident in 21.6%. Gram-positive microorganisms were present in 10 cultures, with Enterococcus emerging as the prevailing species. The logistic regression model identified a positive bile culture as an independent factor significantly associated with infection development (OR: 2.26; 95% confidence interval: 1.23-11; p = 0.02). Considering the limitations of the study, these findings underscore the critical importance of conducting bile cultures during the intraoperative phase to enable vigilant monitoring and prompt management of infectious complications.

Piperacillin/tazobactam for surgical prophylaxis during pancreatoduodenectomy: meta-analysis. BJS Open 2024; 8:zrae066. [PMID: 38869238 PMCID: PMC11170489 DOI: 10.1093/bjsopen/zrae066] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2024] [Revised: 03/28/2024] [Accepted: 05/02/2024] [Indexed: 06/14/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatoduodenectomy is associated with an increased incidence of surgical-site infections, often leading to a significant rise in morbidity and mortality. This trend underlines the inadequacy of traditional antibiotic prophylaxis strategies. Hence, the aim of this meta-analysis was to assess the outcomes of antimicrobial prophylaxis, comparing piperacillin/tazobactam with traditional antibiotics. METHODS Upon registering in PROSPERO, the international prospective register of systematic reviews (CRD42023479100), a systematic search of various databases was conducted over the interval 2000-2023. This inclusive search encompassed a wide range of study types, including prospective and retrospective cohorts and RCTs. The subsequent data analysis was carried out utilizing RevMan 5.4. RESULTS A total of eight studies involving 2382 patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy and received either piperacillin/tazobactam (1196 patients) or traditional antibiotics (1186 patients) as antibiotic prophylaxis during surgery were included in the meta-analysis. Patients in the piperacillin/tazobactam group had significantly reduced incidences of surgical-site infections (OR 0.43 (95% c.i. 0.30 to 0.62); P < 0.00001) and major surgical complications (Clavien-Dindo grade greater than or equal to III) (OR 0.61 (95% c.i. 0.45 to 0.81); P = 0.0008). Subgroup analysis of surgical-site infections highlighted significantly reduced incidences of superficial surgical-site infections (OR 0.34 (95% c.i. 0.14 to 0.84); P = 0.02) and organ/space surgical-site infections (OR 0.47 (95% c.i. 0.28 to 0.78); P = 0.004) in the piperacillin/tazobactam group. Further, the analysis demonstrated significantly lower incidences of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistulas (grades B and C) (OR 0.67 (95% c.i. 0.53 to 0.83); P = 0.0003) and mortality (OR 0.51 (95% c.i. 0.28 to 0.91); P = 0.02) in the piperacillin/tazobactam group. CONCLUSION Piperacillin/tazobactam as antimicrobial prophylaxis significantly lowers the risk of postoperative surgical-site infections, major surgical complications (complications classified as Clavien-Dindo grade greater than or equal to III), clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistulas (grades B and C), and mortality, hence supporting the implementation of piperacillin/tazobactam for surgical prophylaxis in current practice.

Perioperative pancreaticoduodenectomy management strategy focusing on postoperative early drain colonization. Surg Today 2024:10.1007/s00595-024-02810-4. [PMID: 38502211 DOI: 10.1007/s00595-024-02810-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2023] [Accepted: 01/21/2024] [Indexed: 03/21/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) is a highly invasive procedure. Intra-abdominal infections and pancreatic fistulas are strongly correlated complications. In the present study, we identified the risk factors for postoperative early drain colonization (POEDC) and established a perioperative management strategy. METHODS A total of 205 patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy were included in the study. POEDC was defined as a positive drain fluid culture before postoperative day (POD) 4. We retrospectively investigated the correlation between POEDC, postoperative outcomes, and clinical factors. RESULTS POEDC was observed in 26 patients (12.6%) with poor postoperative outcomes, including pancreatic fistulas (P < 0.001). A multivariate analysis demonstrated a correlation between these postoperative outcomes and the age (P = 0.002), body mass index (BMI) (P = 0.002), procalcitonin (PCT) level (P < 0.001), and drain amylase level on POD 1 (P = 0.032). Enterococcus was detected most frequently, being found in 15 patients. CONCLUSION We observed a strong correlation between POEDC and poor postoperative outcomes. The BMI, age, and PCT and drain amylase level on POD 1 should be considered POEDC risk factors, with the need to propose an antibiotic perioperative strategy. POEDC control may represent the key to improving postoperative outcomes after PD.

Antibiotics (Basel) 2024; 13:99.

Abstract
The average American today undergoes three inpatient and two outpatient surgical procedures during one's life, each of which carries with it a risk of post-operative infection. It has long been known that post-operative infections cause significant morbidity in the immediate peri-operative period, but recent evidence suggests that they can have long-term consequences as well, increasing a patient's risk of infectious complications in unrelated surgeries performed months or even years later. While there are several theories on the origin of this association, including bacterial colonization of a post-operative infectious wound site, antimicrobial resistance from curative courses of antibiotics, subclinical immunosuppression, or the creation of an inflammatory "pathobiome" following an infectious insult, it is ultimately still unclear why patients who experience a single post-operative infection seem to be at a significantly higher risk of experiencing subsequent ones. Regardless, this association has significant implications for the routine use of pre-operative antibiotic prophylaxis. Indeed, while the prescription of antibiotics pre-operatively has dramatically reduced the rate of post-operative infections, the chosen prophylaxis regimens are typically standardized according to national guidelines, are facing increasing antimicrobial resistance patterns, and have been unable to reduce the risk of post-operative infection to acceptably low levels for certain surgeries. As a result, some clinicians have speculated that tailoring pre-operative antibiotic prophylaxis according to a patient's prior infectious and operative history could improve efficacy and further reduce the rate of post-operative infections. The purpose of this review is to describe the evidence for the link between multiple post-operative infections and explore the efficacy of individualized pre-operative prophylaxis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have reported conflicting results of prolonged antibiotic prophylaxis on infectious complications after pancreatoduodenectomy. This study evaluated the effect of prolonged antibiotics on surgical-site infections (SSIs) after pancreatoduodenectomy. METHODS A systematic review and meta-analysis was undertaken of SSIs in patients with perioperative (within 24 h) versus prolonged antibiotic (over 24 h) prophylaxis after pancreatoduodenectomy. SSIs were classified as organ/space infections or superficial SSI within 30 days after surgery. ORs were calculated using a Mantel-Haenszel fixed-effect model. RESULTS Ten studies were included in the qualitative analysis, of which 8 reporting on 1170 patients were included in the quantitative analysis. The duration of prolonged antibiotic prophylaxis varied between 2 and 10 days after surgery. Four studies reporting on 782 patients showed comparable organ/space infection rates in patients receiving perioperative and prolonged antibiotics (OR 1.35, 95 per cent c.i. 0.94 to 1.93). However, among patients with preoperative biliary drainage (5 studies reporting on 577 patients), organ/space infection rates were lower with prolonged compared with perioperative antibiotics (OR 2.09, 1.43 to 3.07). Three studies (633 patients) demonstrated comparable superficial SSI rates between patients receiving perioperative versus prolonged prophylaxis (OR 1.54, 0.97 to 2.44), as well as in patients with preoperative biliary drainage in 4 studies reporting on 431 patients (OR 1.60, 0.89 to 2.88). CONCLUSION Prolonged antibiotic prophylaxis is associated with fewer organ/space infection in patients who undergo preoperative biliary drainage. However, the optimal duration of antibiotic prophylaxis after pancreatoduodenectomy remains to be determined and warrants confirmation in an RCT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cholestasis should be relieved by biliary drainage prior to major liver resection. This condition is often associated with bacterial colonization of the otherwise sterile biliary system. Cholangitis reduces the regenerative capacity of the remaining liver. Therefore, targeted antibiotic therapy is a key feature in perioperative treatment in patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCC). METHODS Between December 1999 and December 2017, 251 pCCC patients were treated in our center. In total, 115 patients underwent a microbiological analysis. In addition to the characterization of the specific microorganisms and antibiotic resistance, we analyzed subgroups according to preoperative intervention. RESULTS Enterococci (87/254, 34%) and Enterobacteria (65/254, 26%) were the most frequently detected genera. In 43% (50/115) of patients, Enterococcus faecalis was found in the bile duct sample. Enterococcus faecium (29/115) and Escherichia coli (29/115) were detected in 25% of patients. In patients with percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (3/8, 38%) or stents (24/79, 30%), Enterococcus faecium was diagnosed most frequently (P < 0.05). Enterococcus faecium and Klebsiella oxytoca were significantly more frequently noted in the time period after 2012 (P < 0.05). With regard to fungal colonization, the focus was on various Candida strains, but these strains generally lacked resistance. CONCLUSIONS pCCC patients exhibit specific bacterial colonization features depending on the type of preoperative biliary intervention. Specifically, targeted antibiosis should be applied in this patient cohort to minimize the risk of biliary complications after major liver resection. In our cohort, the combination of meropenem and vancomycin represents an effective perioperative medical approach.

Abstract
Introduction Bile is deemed a sterile fluid, with the presence of clinical conditions like cholelithiasis, cholecystitis, previous biliary interventions, biliary strictures, and so on, leading to bile stasis, and increases the chances of bacteriobilia. In this study, we recognize the bacterial spectrum of microorganisms isolated from bile samples, diagnostic parameters, and antibiotic sensitivity patterns. Methods A retrospective observational study was carried out by compiling data from the hospital information system of a tertiary care center from 2021 to 2022 to evaluate biliary infections in patients who underwent surgical procedures related to the biliary tract and associated organs. Results A total of 234 patients' bile samples were included in our study. The mean age of patients was 48.04 ± 14.74 years, with more patients below the age of 65 years among those with infected bile samples. One hundred and sixty-three (163/234, 69.66%) patients infected by 209 pathogenic microorganisms were recognized. The most common microorganism isolated was Escherichia coli (83/209, 39.71%), followed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (37/209, 17.7%). Acinetobacter baumannii and Klebsiella pneumoniae isolate owed to more than 90% penicillin, extended-spectrum beta-lactamase, carbapenem, and fluoroquinolone resistance among all isolates. Length of hospital stay, malignant obstruction, and chronic kidney disease were identified as statistically significant risk factors that lead to the isolation of multi-drug-resistant isolates from bile culture. Conclusion We recognized the spectrum of pathogens causing biliary tract infections at our center along with the antibiotic resistance pattern to guide and facilitate prompt and appropriate treatment by primary health care professionals and family medicine practitioners.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Abdominal infections account for substantial morbidity after pancreatoduodenectomy. Contaminated bile is the presumed main risk factor, and prolonged antibiotic prophylaxis might prevent these complications. This study compared organ/space infection (OSIs) rates in patients receiving perioperative versus prolonged antibiotic prophylaxis after pancreatoduodenectomy. METHODS Patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy in two Dutch centers between 2016 and 2019 were included. Perioperative prophylaxis was compared prolonged prophylaxis (cefuroxime and metronidazole for five days). The primary outcome was an isolated OSI: an abdominal infection without concurrent anastomotic leakage. Odds ratios (OR) were adjusted for surgical approach and pancreatic duct diameter. RESULTS OSIs occurred in 137 out of 362 patients (37.8%): 93 patients with perioperative and 44 patients with prolonged prophylaxis (42.5% versus 30.8%, P = 0.025). Isolated OSIs occurred in 38 patients (10.5%): 28 patients with perioperative and 10 patients with prolonged prophylaxis (12.8% versus 7.0%, P = 0.079). Bile cultures were obtained in 198 patients (54.7%). Patients with positive bile cultures showed higher isolated OSI rates with perioperative compared to prolonged prophylaxis (18.2% versus 6.6%, OR 5.7, 95% CI: 1.3-23.9). CONCLUSION Prolonged antibiotics after pancreatoduodenectomy are associated with fewer isolated OSIs in patients with contaminated bile and warrant confirmation in a randomised controlled trial (Clinicaltrials.gov NCT0578431).

Abstract
BACKGROUND We have updated the guideline for preventing and managing perioperative infection in China, given the global issues with antimicrobial resistance and the need to optimize antimicrobial usage and improve hospital infection control levels. METHODS We conducted a comprehensive evaluation of the evidence for prevention and management of perioperative infection, based on the concepts of the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) system. The strength of recommendations was graded and voted using the Delphi method and the nominal group technique. Revisions were made to the guidelines in response to feedback from the experts. RESULTS There were 17 questions prepared, for which 37 recommendations were made. According to the GRADE system, we evaluated the body of evidence for each clinical question. Based on the meta-analysis results, recommendations were graded using the Delphi method to generate useful information. CONCLUSIONS This guideline provides evidence to perioperative antimicrobial prophylaxis that increased the rational use of prophylactic antimicrobial use, with substantial improvement in the risk-benefit trade-off.

Guidelines for Perioperative Care for Liver Surgery: Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Society Recommendations 2022. World J Surg 2023; 47:11-34. [PMID: 36310325 PMCID: PMC9726826 DOI: 10.1007/s00268-022-06732-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 44] [Impact Index Per Article: 44.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 08/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) has been widely applied in liver surgery since the publication of the first ERAS guidelines in 2016. The aim of the present article was to update the ERAS guidelines in liver surgery using a modified Delphi method based on a systematic review of the literature. METHODS A systematic literature review was performed using MEDLINE/PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library. A modified Delphi method including 15 international experts was used. Consensus was judged to be reached when >80% of the experts agreed on the recommended items. Recommendations were based on the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations system. RESULTS A total of 7541 manuscripts were screened, and 240 articles were finally included. Twenty-five recommendation items were elaborated. All of them obtained consensus (>80% agreement) after 3 Delphi rounds. Nine items (36%) had a high level of evidence and 16 (64%) a strong recommendation grade. Compared to the first ERAS guidelines published, 3 novel items were introduced: prehabilitation in high-risk patients, preoperative biliary drainage in cholestatic liver, and preoperative smoking and alcohol cessation at least 4 weeks before hepatectomy. CONCLUSIONS These guidelines based on the best available evidence allow standardization of the perioperative management of patients undergoing liver surgery. Specific studies on hepatectomy in cirrhotic patients following an ERAS program are still needed.

Abstract
Background Blockage of the biliary tract is commonly caused by malignant tumors leading to deranged liver function, responsible for poor prognosis and a high rate of bacteriobilia leading to mortality. Material and methods We collected retrospective data from the hospital information system and laboratory registers in our department from 2021 to 2022 to evaluate biliary infections in patients with hepato-pancreatico-biliary and associated intraabdominal malignancies. Result A total of 118 (118/234, 50.43%) patients' bile samples were estimated in this study. Patients' average age was 53.02 ± 13.49 years, with more patients below the age of 65 years among those with infected bile samples. Eight patients were infected by 102 pathogenic microorganisms. The most common pathogenic microorganism responsible for biliary infection in patients with abdominal malignancies was Escherichia coli (38/102, 37.25%) followed by Klebsiella pneumoniae (21/102, 20.59%) and Enterococcus spp. (18/102, 17.65%). Underlying comorbidities like diabetes mellitus, hypothyroidism, hypoproteinemia, chronic liver disease, immunosuppression, chronic kidney disease, increased hospital stay, admission to the intensive care unit (ICU), and presence of percutaneous transhepatic biliary drain were statistically significant risk factors for isolation of multidrug-resistant pathogenic bacteria. Conclusion Our study guided physicians in identifying the associated demographic characteristics, risk factors, and the spectrum of pathogens responsible for bacteriobilia in abdominal cancer patients along with the antibiotic resistance pattern among these isolates and better selection of antibiotics and antibiotic prophylaxis for patients at risk of developing biliary tract infections with multidrug-resistant pathogens.

Abstract
Background Infectious complications can cause lethal liver failure after hepatectomy with biliary reconstruction. This study assessed the increased risk for postoperative infectious complications in patients who underwent hepatectomy with biliary reconstruction and explored the possibility of predicting pathogenic microorganisms causing postoperative infectious complications based on preoperative monitoring of bile cultures. Methods This study involved 310 patients who received major hepatectomy with or without biliary reconstruction at our institution between January 2010 and December 2019. The relationship between the microorganisms detected through perioperative monitoring of bile culture and those in the postoperative infectious foci was examined. Results Forty-nine patients underwent major hepatectomy with biliary reconstruction, and 261 received hepatectomy without biliary reconstruction. The multivariate analysis revealed hepatectomy with biliary reconstruction to be associated with an increased risk of postoperative infectious complications (odds ratio: 22.9, 95% confidence interval: 5.2-164.3) compared to hepatectomy without biliary reconstruction. In the patients with biliary reconstruction, the concordance rates between the microorganisms detected in the postoperative infectious foci and those in preoperative bile cultures were as follows: incisional surgical site infection (44.4%), organ/space surgical site infection (52.9%), bacteremia (47.1%), and pneumonia (16.7%); the concordance rates were high, and the risk of infection increased over time. Conclusions Biliary reconstruction is a significant risk factor for postoperative infectious complications, and preoperative bile cultures may aid in prophylactic and therapeutic antimicrobial agent selection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE In hepatobiliary and pancreatic (HBP) surgery, the role and significance of intra-abdominal lavage (IAL) for surgical site infection (SSI) is controversial. METHODS This prospective study was performed between July 2020 and July 2022. A total of 150 patients, 10-L IAL was performed. The lavage fluid at 1-L, 5-L, and 10-L was subjected to bacterial culture examination. Risk factors for SSI were evaluated. RESULTS Bacterial positivity rate significantly decreased as follows: 1-L, 36% (n = 54); 5-L, 27% (n = 41); 10-L, 23% (n = 35) (36% vs 23%, p = .001). Patients with positive lavage fluid culture at 10-L had significantly higher incidence of both incisional (37% vs 6%, p < .01) and organ/space (54% vs 3%, p < .01) SSI. Multivariate analysis revealed positivity for bacterial culture at 10-L as the strongest independent risk factor for incisional SSI (OR 13.0, 95% CI: 3.86-43.6, p < .01), followed by postoperative pancreatic fistula (OR 11.7, 95% CI: 3.03-45.6, p < .01). Likewise, in organ/space SSI, positivity for bacterial culture at 10-L was the strongest independent risk factor (OR 48.9, 95% CI:12.1-197.7, p < .01), followed by digestive reconstruction (OR 5.20, 95% CI: 1.45-18.6, p = .01). CONCLUSION IAL decreased the intraperitoneal contamination rate in a volume-dependent manner and can be useful in the surveillance of SSI development in HBP surgery.

Long term assessment of antibiotic prophylaxis and biliary microbiome in pancreaticoduodenectomy. HPB (Oxford) 2022; 24:1861-1868. [PMID: 35918214 DOI: 10.1016/j.hpb.2022.07.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2022] [Revised: 06/07/2022] [Accepted: 07/08/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Surgical site infections (SSI) can represent a major complication of pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). We summarize the outcomes of process improvement efforts to reduce the SSI rates in PD that includes replacing Cefazolin with Ceftriaxone-Metronidazole as antibiotic prophylaxis. Additional efforts included current assessment of biliary microbiome and potential prophylactic failures based on bile cultures and suspected antibiotic allergies. METHOD A single-center review of PD patients from January-2012 to March-2021. Study groups were divided into Pre and Post May-2015 (Group 1 and 2, respectively) when Ceftriaxone-Metronidazole prophylaxis and routine intraoperative cultures were standardized. Univariate and multivariable analyses were conducted to assess groups' differences and association with SSI. RESULTS Six hundred ninety patients identified [267(38.7%) and 423(61.3%) in Group 1 and Group2, respectively]. After antibiotic change, SSI rates decreased from 28.1% to 16.5% (incisional: 17.6%-7.5%, organ-space or abscess: 17.2%-13.0%), Group 1 and Group 2, respectively, P<0.001. Ceftriaxone-Metronidazole was used in 75.9% of patients Group 2. When adjusting for other covariates, an SSI-decrease was associated only with Ceftriaxone-Metronidazole (OR 0.34, P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS Ongoing process improvement has resulted in decreased SSIs with Ceftriaxone-Metronidazole prophylaxis. The benefit of Ceftriaxone-Metronidazole is independent of the biliary microbiome. Improving prophylaxis for those with suspected penicillin allergy is warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Standardized criteria for the drain removal in hepatobiliary resection are lacking. We evaluated the outcomes of delayed removal policy in this extended surgery. METHODS Patients undergoing hepatectomy with biliary reconstruction between 2012 and 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. The drains were removed on postoperative day (POD) 7 when the drainage fluid was grossly serous, biochemically normal, and negative for bacterial contamination as assessed by Gram staining; additionally, no abnormal fluid collection was confirmed by computed tomography. Clinically relevant abdominal complications (CRACs), including biliary leakage, pancreatic fistula or intra-abdominal abscess, served as the primary outcome measure. RESULTS Among 374 study patients, surgical drains were removed in 166 (44.3%) patients who met the criteria. Of these patients, 16 (9.6%) patients required additional drainage afterwards due to CRAC. Drains were retained and exchanged in 208 (55.6%) patients who did not meet the criteria. Of them, exchanged drains were soon removed in 34 patients due to no signs of CRAC. The diagnostic ability of the criteria revealed 0.916 sensitivity, 0.815 specificity, and 0.866 accuracy. CONCLUSION The four findings on POD 7 worked well as criteria for drain removal, and these criteria may be helpful in drain management after hepatobiliary resection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Septic complications after pancreatic surgery are common. However, it remains unclear if and how a shift of the microbiological spectrum affects morbidity. The aim of the present study was to assess the microbiological spectrum and antibiotic resistance patterns and their impact on outcome. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study including patients undergoing pancreatic surgery at our center between 2005 and 2018. A systematic literature review and descriptive meta-analysis of the published and original data was performed according to the PRISMA guidelines. RESULTS A total of 318 patients were included in the analysis. Patients with biliary drainage had a significantly higher incidence of bacterobilia (93% vs. 25%) and received preoperative antibiotics (46% vs. 12%). The analyzed bile cultures showed no resistance to piperacillin/tazobactam, fluoroquinolones, or carbapenems. Resistance to cefuroxime was seen in 58% of the samples of patients without biliary drainage (NBD) and 93% of the samples of those with drainage (BD). In general, there was no significant difference in overall postoperative morbidity. However, superficial surgical site infections (SSIs) were significantly more common in the BD group. We included a total of six studies and our own data (1627 patients) in the descriptive meta-analysis. The percentage of positive bile cultures ranged from 53 to 81%. In patients with BD, the most frequent microorganisms were Enterococcus spp. (58%), Klebsiella spp. (29%), and E. coli (27%). Almost all studies demonstrated resistance to first- and second-generation cephalosporins and to third- and fourth-generation cephalosporins for patients with BD. CONCLUSION A change in perioperative antibiotic strategy according to local resistance patterns, especially after BD, might be useful for patients undergoing pancreatic surgery. Appropriate perioperative antibiotic coverage may help to prevent abdominal infectious complications and especially superficial SSIs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to analyze the risk factors for surgical infectious complications and the outcomes of patients undergoing surgery for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma according to the microbiological examinations. METHODS Patients who underwent surgery for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma in the last decade were enrolled, and all clinical and microbiological data were collected from a retrospective monocentric database. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed distinguishing patients who developed at least 1 surgical infectious complication (surgical site infections, acute bacterial cholangitis, bacteremia). RESULTS A total of 98 patients were included. Among patients who developed surgical infectious complications (51%), many preoperative characteristics were significantly more frequent: American Society of Anesthesiologists score ≥3 (P = .026), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio ≥3.4 (P = .001), endoscopic sphincterotomy (P = .032), ≥2 biliary drainage procedures (P = .013), acute cholangitis (P = .012), multidrug resistant (P = .009), and ≥3 microorganisms' detection (P = .042); whereas during the postoperative period, surgical infectious complications were associated to increased incidence of intensive care unit readmission (P = .031), major complications (P < .001), posthepatectomy liver failure (P = .005), ascites (P = .008), biliary leakage (P = .008), 90-day readmission (P = .003), and prolonged length of hospital stay (P < .001). At the multivariate analysis 3 independent preoperative risk factors for surgical infectious complications were identified: neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio ≥3.4 (P = .004), endoscopic sphincterotomy (P = .009), and acute cholangitis (P = .013). The presence of multidrug-resistance in the perioperative biliary cultures was related to postoperative multidrug-resistant species from all cultures (P < .001) and organ/space and incisional-surgical site infections (P ≤ .044). CONCLUSION Infective complications after surgery for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma worsen the short-term outcomes. A careful microbiological surveillance should be carried out in all cases to prevent and promptly treat surgical infectious complications.

A Retrospective Study on Bile Culture and Antibiotic Susceptibility Patterns of Patients with Biliary Tract Infections. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2022; 2022:9255444. [PMID: 35463066 PMCID: PMC9020942 DOI: 10.1155/2022/9255444] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2021] [Revised: 03/20/2022] [Accepted: 03/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/07/2022]
Abstract
Aim This study aimed to provide profiles of microorganisms isolated from bile and antibiotic susceptibility patterns of biliary tract infections (BTIs) in our center. Methods A total of 277 patients diagnosed with BTIs at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from 2011 to 2018 were included in this study. Medical records were reviewed to obtain clinical and demographic data. Bile specimens were prepared through endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), percutaneous transhepatic cholangiodrainage (PTCD), and percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGD) under aseptic conditions. In those with positive bile culture results, blood cultures were concurrently conducted. The concordance of the results between bile culture and blood culture were also analysed. Results Two hundred and sixty-seven bile cultures were positive, while 280 strains of micro-organisms were isolated. Among these, 76.8% were Gram-negative, 22.5% were Gram-positive and 0.7% were fungi. The most common microorganisms were Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Enterococcus faecalis. Gram-negative bacteria we tested were highly sensitive to ertapenem, imipenem, tigecycline, and amikacin. Gram-positive bacteria we tested were highly sensitive to tigecycline, teicoplanin, linezolid, vancomycin, and chloramphenicol. For the 44 patients with positive bile cultures, a blood culture was also performed. Among them, 29 cases yielded positive blood culture results. Among those cases with positive blood culture, 48.3% showed complete agreement with bile culture, 3.4% showed partial agreement, and 48.3% showed disagreement. The most common microorganisms in blood culture were the same as in bile culture. Additionally, the proportion of Staphylococcus epidermidis was significantly higher in blood culture (P < 0.05). Conclusion Our study provided a comprehensive analysis of the bacteria distribution and drug resistance profiles in patients with BTIs in northern China. Further studies should be conducted to validate our findings.

Abstract
PURPOSE Bacteremia occurring after extensive hepatic resection and biliary reconstruction (Hx + Bx) for biliary cancer is a critical infectious complication. This study evaluated postoperative bacteremia and examined the potential usefulness of surveillance cultures. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 179 patients who underwent Hx + Bx for biliary cancer from January 2008 to December 2018 in our department. RESULTS Bacteremia occurred in 41 (23.0%) patients. Patients with bacteremia had a longer operation time and more frequent intraoperative transfusion and more frequently developed organ/space surgical site infection (SSI) than those without bacteremia. The most frequently isolated bacterial species from blood cultures were Enterococcus faecium (29.3%), Enterobacter cloacae (24.4%), and Enterococcus faecalis (22.0%). The SIRS duration of bacteremia associated with organ/space SSI was significantly longer than that of other infectious complications (median 96 h vs. 48 h; p = 0.043). Bacteremia associated with organ/space SSI occurred most often by postoperative day (POD) 30. The concordance rate of bacterial species between blood and surveillance cultures within POD 30 was 67-82%. CONCLUSIONS Bacteremia associated with organ/space SSI required treatment for a long time and typically occurred by POD 30. Postoperative surveillance cultures obtained during this period may be useful for selecting initial antibiotic therapy because of their high concordance rate with blood cultures.

Antibiotic Prophylaxis for Hepato-Biliopancreatic Surgery—A Systematic Review. Antibiotics (Basel) 2022; 11:antibiotics11020194.

Abstract
Background: Surgical site infections (SSIs) are among the most important determinants of morbidity after HBP surgery. Their frequency after HPB surgery is variable, from 1–2% after elective cholecystectomy to 25% after PD. Methods: A systematic review was performed to assess the role of antimicrobial prophylaxis (AP) in HPB elective surgery. Articles published between 2015 and 2021 were obtained; those before 2015 were not included because they antedate the WHO guidelines on SSI prevention. We conducted three different research methods for liver resection, elective cholecystectomy and pancreatic and biliary surgery regarding patients requiring preoperative biliary drainage. Results: Hepatic surgery, improvement in surgical technique and perioperative management lead to a very low SSI. One preoperative 2 g cefazolin dose may be adequate for surgical prophylaxis. From preoperative biliary drainage, we can derive that patients’ homeostasis rather than AP plays a paramount role in reducing postoperative morbidity. The time from biliary drainage could be an essential element in decision making for surgical prophylaxis. In the case of low-risk cholecystectomy, it is not easy to draw definitive conclusions about the effect of AP. Data from the literature are inconsistent, and some risk factors cannot be predicted before surgery. Conclusion: in our opinion, a strict preoperative cefazolin dose strategy can be reasonable in HBP surgery until a large-scale, multicentric RCT brings definitive conclusions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pre-operative biliary bacterial colonisation (bacterobilia) is considered a risk factor for infectious complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). This study aimed to investigate the role of the PD biliary microbiome grown in the development of post-PD complications. METHODS In a retrospective study of 162 consecutive patients undergoing PD (2008-2018), intra-operative bile cultures were analyzed and sensitivities compared to pre-anesthetic antibiotics and thirty-day post-surgery complications. RESULTS Bacterobilia was present in 136 patients (84%). Most bile cultures grew bacteria resistant to pre-operative antibiotics (n = 112, 82%). Patients with bacterobilia had significantly higher rates of major complication than patients without (P = 0.017), as well as higher rates of surgical-site infections (SSI) (P = 0.010). Patients with negative bile cultures (n = 26) had significantly lower rates of major complication and SSI than those growing sensitive (n = 24) or non-sensitive (n = 112) bacteria (major complication P = 0.029 and SSI P = 0.011). CONCLUSION Positive bile cultures were associated with a higher incidence of major complications and SSI. Patients with sterile bile cultures had the lowest risk of post-operative complications and efforts to reduce rates of bacterobilia, such as limitation of biliary instrumentation, should be considered. Sensitivity to antibiotics had no effect upon the rate of post-operative complications, but this may reflect low cohort numbers.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Infectious complications are common after pancreatoduodenectomy, which in turn are associated with preoperative biliary drainage. Current guidelines recommend a first-generation cephalosporin as perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis. However, some studies support the use of targeted antibiotics. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to evaluate the role of prophylactic targeted antibiotics compared to standard antibiotics in reducing postoperative infections after pancreatoduodenectomy. METHODS A search from MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane library from 1946 to July 2020 was conducted. Studies were included if they compared targeted antibiotics with standard perioperative antibiotics while including outcome data on surgical site infections (SSI). Targeted therapy was defined as perioperative antibiotics targeting organisms prevalent in bile instrumentation or by culture data obtained from the patient or institution. Outcomes assessed were the rate of SSIs and their microbiology profile. Analyses included demographic data, perioperative antibiotics, postoperative outcomes including microbiology data, and meta-analysis was performed where applicable. RESULTS Seven studies were included, with a total of 849 patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy. Targeted antibiotics were associated with a significantly lower rate of postoperative SSI compared to standard antibiotic therapy [21.1% vs 41.9%; risk ratios (RR) 0.55, 95% confidence interval 0.37-0.81]. Wound/incisional site infections and organ space infections were lower in patients receiving targeted antibiotic prophylaxis (RR 0.33, P = 0.0002 and RR 0.54, P = 0.0004, respectively). Enterococcus species were the most common bacteria reported. CONCLUSION There was a significant reduction in overall SSI rates when targeted antibiotics was used. Current standard antibiotic prophylaxis is inadequate in covering microbes prevalent in postoperative infections developing after pancreatoduodenectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the mortality of pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) has decreased, the morbidity especially infections is still a severe challenge. This study aimed to identify the risk factors and microbial spectrum for infectious complications after PD. METHODS This retrospective study of 291 consecutive patients who underwent PD between February 2018 and March 2021 was conducted. The clinical data was reviewed and risk factors associated with infectious complications were analyzed. To investigate the microbial spectrum, microorganisms isolated from preoperative bile, drainage fluid and blood were counted. RESULTS A total of 110 patients (37.8%) developed postoperative infections. The patients who suffered infections had higher severe complications, prolonged hospitalization and increased expenditures. Three independent risk factors were identified: preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) [odds ratio (OR) 2.082; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.059-4.091; P=0.033], clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) (OR 11.984; 95% CI: 6.556-21.471; P=0.000) and biliary fistula (BF) (OR 3.674; 95% CI: 1.218-11.084; P=0.021). K. pneumoniae and E. faecalis were the most frequently isolated bacteria in preoperative bile and drainage fluid after PD. K. pneumoniae and S. haemolyticus were the most common bacteria in bacteremia patients. CONCLUSIONS PBD, POPF and BF are independent risk factors for infectious complications after PD. To lower the incidence of infection, PBD should be performed only in select cases and efforts should be taken to reduce the POPF and BF. The pathogens of bile and drainage fluid should be monitored throughout the hospital stay.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between intraoperative bile cultures and infectious complications after pancreatoduodenectomy remains unclear. This cohort study and meta-analysis aimed to determine the predictive role of intraoperative bile cultures in abdominal infectious complications after pancreatoduodenectomy. METHODS The cohort study included 114 patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy. Regression analyses were used to estimate the odds to develop an organ space infection (OSI) or isolated OSI (OSIs without a simultaneous complication potentially contaminating the intraabdominal space) after a positive bile culture. A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed on abdominal infectious complications (Mantel-Haenszel fixed-effect model). RESULTS The positive bile culture rate was 61%, predominantly in patients after preoperative biliary drainage (98% vs 26%, p < 0.001). OSIs occurred in 35 patients (31%) and isolated OSIs in nine patients (8%) and were not associated with positive bile cultures (OSIs: odds ratio = 0.6, 95% CI = 0.25-1.23, isolated OSIs: odds ratio = 0.77, 95% CI = 0.20-3.04). In the meta-analysis, 15 studies reporting on 2047 patients showed no association between positive bile cultures and abdominal infectious complications (pooled odds ratio = 1.3, 95% CI = 0.98-1.65). CONCLUSION Given the rare occurrence of isolated OSIs and similar odds for patients with positive and negative bile cultures to develop abdominal infectious complications, routine performance of bile cultures should be reconsidered.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Postoperative intra-abdominal infection is one of the most serious complications after pancreatic resection. In this article, we investigated the relationship between serum lactate level and postoperative infection, to suggest a new predictor of potential infection risk after pancreatectomy. METHODS A retrospective analysis of 156 patients who underwent pancreatic surgery and admitted in the intensive care unit for recovery after surgery between August 2017 and August 2019 was performed. RESULTS The basic characteristics, preoperative information, pathological diagnoses, surgical methods, and intraoperative situations of patients in the postoperative intra-abdominal infection group (n = 52) and non-infection group (n = 104) showed no significant differences. With the same postoperative treatments and results of fluid balance, blood pressure maintenance, and laboratory tests, postoperative serum lactate level increased much higher in the infection group than non-infection group (P < 0.001), while the base excess level declined much lower (P = 0.002). Patients in the infection group needed more time to elute lactate (P < 0.001), and stayed longer in the intensive care unit after surgery (P = 0.007). The overall postoperative complications were certainly more in the infection group (P < 0.001), resulting in a longer hospitalization time (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS When patients recovered smoothly from anesthesia with a stable hemodynamics situation and normal results of laboratory tests, abnormally high serum lactate level could be a predictor of postoperative intra-abdominal infection after pancreatic resection.

Abstract
(1) Background: Anaerobic infections in hepatobiliary surgery have rarely been addressed. Whereas infectious complications during the perioperative phase of liver resections are common, there are very limited data on the prevalence and clinical role of anaerobes in this context. Given the risk of contaminated bile in liver resections, the goal of our study was to investigate the prevalence and outcome of anaerobic infections in major hepatectomies. (2) Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the charts of 245 consecutive major hepatectomies that were performed at the department of General, Visceral, and Transplantation Surgery of the University Hospital of Tuebingen between July 2017 and August 2020. All microbiological cultures were screened for the prevalence of anaerobic bacteria and the patients' clinical characteristics and outcomes were evaluated. (3) Results: Of the 245 patients, 13 patients suffered from anaerobic infections. Seven had positive cultures from the biliary tract during the primary procedure, while six had positive culture results from samples obtained during the management of complications. Risk factors for anaerobic infections were preoperative biliary stenting (p = 0.002) and bile leaks (p = 0.009). All of these infections had to be treated by intervention and adjunct antibiotic treatment with broad spectrum antibiotics. (4) Conclusions: Anaerobic infections are rare in liver resections. Certain risk factors trigger the antibiotic coverage of anaerobes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Postoperative infections occur frequently after pancreaticoduodenectomy, especially in patients with bile colonization. Recommendations for perioperative anti-infectious treatment are lacking, and clinical practice is heterogenous. We have analyzed the effects of bile colonization and antibiotic prophylaxis on postoperative infection rates, types and therapeutic consequences. METHODS Retrospective observational study in patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy with intraoperative bile culture. Data on postoperative infections and non-infectious complications, bile cultures and antibiotic prophylaxis adequacy to biliary bacteria were collected. RESULTS Among 129 patients, 53% had a positive bile culture and 23% had received appropriate antibiotic prophylaxis. Postoperative documented infection rate was over 40% in patients with or without bile colonization, but antibiotic therapy was more frequent in positive bile culture patients (77% vs. 57%, P=0,008). The median duration of antibiotic therapy was 11 days and included a broad-spectrum molecule in 42% of cases. Two-thirds of documented postoperative infections involved one or more bacteria isolated in bile cultures, which was associated with a higher complication rate. While bile culture yielded Gram-negative bacilli (57%) and Gram-positive cocci (43%), fungal microorganisms were scarce. Adequate preoperative antibiotic prophylaxis according to bile culture was not associated with reduced infectious or non-infectious complication rates. CONCLUSION Patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy experience a high rate of postoperative infections, often involving bacteria from perioperative bile culture when positive, with no preventive effect of an adequate preoperative antibiotic prophylaxis. Increased postoperative complications in patients with bile colonization may render necessary a perioperative antibiotic treatment targeting bile microorganisms. Further prospective studies are needed to improve the anti-infectious strategy in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Japanese Society of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery launched the clinical practice guidelines for the management of biliary tract cancers (cholangiocarcinoma, gallbladder cancer, and ampullary cancer) in 2007, then published the 2nd version in 2014. METHODS In this 3rd version, clinical questions (CQs) were proposed on six topics. The recommendation, grade for recommendation, and statement for each CQ were discussed and finalized by an evidence-based approach. Recommendations were graded as Grade 1 (strong) or Grade 2 (weak) according to the concepts of the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system. RESULTS The 31 CQs covered the six topics: (a) prophylactic treatment, (b) diagnosis, (c) biliary drainage, (d) surgical treatment, (e) chemotherapy, and (f) radiation therapy. In the 31 CQs, 14 recommendations were rated strong and 14 recommendations weak. The remaining three CQs had no recommendation. Each CQ includes a statement of how the recommendations were graded. CONCLUSIONS This latest guideline provides recommendations for important clinical aspects based on evidence. Future collaboration with the cancer registry will be key for assessing the guidelines and establishing new evidence.

Abstract
Early intra-abdominal infection (IAI) following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is an initial event relating to morbidities caused by postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF). The aims of this study were to determine factors associated with IAI, and to investigate its impact on postoperative outcome. Consecutive patients, 113 in total, who underwent PD at Fukushima Medical University Hospital between January 2012 and September 2017 were included in this retrospective study. IAI was defined by positive bacterial culture from intra-abdominal drainage fluid any time through postoperative day 3 (POD3). Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the relevant factors associated with IAI. The clinical impact of the POD3 infection indicators related to POPF were assessed by multivariate analysis. The incidence of IAI, POPF, and mortality were 36.1%, 36.1%, and 0%, respectively. Independent factors associated with IAI were preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) (OR = 2.91, CI = 1.16-7.33, p = 0.023) and soft pancreas (OR = 8.67, CI = 2.37-31.77, p = 0.001). Among infection markers on POD3, the significant factors for POPF were CRP (OR = 1.18, CI = 1.08-1.30, p < 0.001), IAI (OR = 7,37, CI = 2.53-21.5, p < 0.001), and drain amylase (OR = 1.00, CI = 1.00-1.01, p = 0.001). In conclusion, PBD, soft pancreas, and higher age were associated with IAI. IAI has a significantly negative impact on postoperative outcome.

Liver resections in patients with prior bilioenteric anastomosis are predisposed to develop organ/space surgical site infections and biliary leakage: results from a propensity score matching analysis. Surg Today 2020; 51:526-536. [PMID: 32785844 DOI: 10.1007/s00595-020-02105-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2020] [Accepted: 07/28/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The aims of this study were to compare the perioperative outcomes after hepatectomy with prior bilioenteric anastomosis to those without prior anastomosis, and to elucidate the mechanisms and preventative measures of its characteristic complications. METHODS The demographic data and perioperative outcomes of 525 hepatectomies performed between January 2007 and December 2018, including 40 hepatectomies with prior bilioenteric anastomosis, were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS A propensity score matching analysis demonstrated that hepatectomies with prior bilioenteric anastomosis were associated with a higher frequency of major complications (p = 0.015), surgical site infection (p = 0.005), organ/space surgical site infection (p = 0.003), and bile leakage (p = 0.007) compared to those without. A multivariate analysis also elucidated that prior bilioenteric anastomosis was one of the independent risk factors of organ/space surgical site infection. In the patients with prior bilioenteric anastomosis, bile leakage was associated with organ/space surgical site infection at a significantly higher rate than those without prior bilioenteric anastomosis (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Prior bilioenteric anastomosis is a strong risk factor for organ/space surgical site infections, which might be induced by bile leakage. To prevent infectious complications after hepatectomy with prior bilioenteric anastomosis, meticulous liver transection to reduce bile leakage rate is thus considered to be mandatory.

Perioperative Broad-spectrum Antibiotics are Associated With Decreased Surgical Site Infections Compared to 1st–3rd Generation Cephalosporins After Open Pancreaticoduodenectomy in Patients With Jaundice or a Biliary Stent. Ann Surg 2020; 275:1175-1183. [PMID: 32740256 DOI: 10.1097/sla.0000000000004216] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Compare the effectiveness of 1st-3rd generation cephalosporins (1st-3rdCE) to broad-spectrum antibiotics in decreasing surgical site infections (SSI) after pancreatectomy. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA SSI is one of the most common complications after pancreatic surgery. Various antibiotic regimens are utilized nationwide with no clear guidelines for pancreatectomy. As we await results of a recently initiated prospective trial, this study retrospectively evaluates over 15,000 patients using the same administrative data abstraction tools as in the trial. METHODS All relevant clinical variables were collected from the 2016-2018 targeted-pancreatectomy database from the American College of Surgeon National Surgical Quality Improvement Program. Preoperative antibiotics were initially collected as first-generation cephalosporin, second or third-generation cephalosporin, and broad-spectrum antibiotics (Broad-abx). RESULTS Of the 15,182 patients who completed a pancreatic surgery between 2016 and 2018, 6114 (40%) received a first-generation cephalosporin, 4097 (27%) received a second or third-generation cephalosporin, and 4971 (33%) received Broad-abx. On multivariate analysis, Broad-abx was associated with a decrease in all-type SSI compared to 1st-3rdCE (odds ratio = 0.73-0.77, P < 0.001) after open pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). There was no difference in SSI between antibiotic-types after distal pancreatectomy. Subgroup multivariate analysis of open PD revealed decrease in all-type SSI with Broad-abx amongst patients with jaundice and/or biliary stent only, regardless of wound protector use (odds ratio = 0.69-0.70, P < 0.001). Propensity score matching of open PD patients with jaundice and/or biliary stent confirmed a decrease in all-type SSI (19% vs 24%, P = 0.001), and organ-space SSI (12% vs 16%, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Broad-abx are associated with decreased SSI after open PD and may be preferred specifically for patients with preoperative biliary stent and/ or jaundice.

Mortality analysis of Aeromonas hydrophila infection in hepato-biliary pancreatic surgery: Multicenter retrospective observational study. JOURNAL OF HEPATO-BILIARY-PANCREATIC SCIENCES 2020; 27:747-755. [PMID: 32692905 DOI: 10.1002/jhbp.805] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2020] [Revised: 06/25/2020] [Accepted: 07/08/2020] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Aeromonas hydrophila can cause lethal infectious complications after surgery. There have been no large cohort studies of this specific to the hepato-biliary-pancreatic (HBP) field. We investigate the postoperative influence of A hydrophila infection after HBP surgery. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed patients who underwent HBP surgery between 2008 and 2017 at eight university hospitals. Patients with A hydrophila isolation during perioperative management were extracted, and their postoperative courses were investigated. RESULTS Bacterial culture examination of 10 074 patients was performed as perioperative management. Among them, 76 patients (0.75%) had A hydrophila isolation, most of whom underwent pancreatoduodenectomy (n = 38) or hepatectomy with biliary reconstruction (n = 14). There were seven mortalities after these two procedures (13.5%), five within 3 days after the onset of infection. Bile (n = 48) and abdominal drainage fluid (n = 29) were major sites of A hydrophila isolation. Typical prophylactic antibiotics, cefazolin or flomoxef, were mostly resistant. There was no mortality among patients that received sensitive antibiotics prophylactically. CONCLUSIONS Isolation of A hydrophila was low in our cases of HBP surgery, but the condition of some patients deteriorated rapidly by this infection. Although there could be several bacterial infections during management of HBP surgery, A hydrophila should not be overlooked. Preparation of appropriate prophylactic antibiotics may prevent or reduce mortality.

Bile cultures are poor predictors of antibiotic resistance in postoperative infections following pancreaticoduodenectomy. HPB (Oxford) 2020; 22:969-978. [PMID: 31662223 DOI: 10.1016/j.hpb.2019.10.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2019] [Revised: 09/30/2019] [Accepted: 10/03/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Bile cultures (BC) have routinely been used to guide empiric antibiotic therapy for developing postoperative infections. The ability of BCs to predict sensitivity and resistance patterns (SRP) of site of infection cultures (SOIC) remains controversial. The aim was to assess the concordance of pathogens and SRPs between paired BC/SOICs. METHODS Medical records of consecutive patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy were reviewed between 2014 and 2018. BC/SOIC pathogens and SRPs were compared on a patient-by-patient basis and concordance (K) was assessed. RESULTS Common patient characteristics of 522 included patients were 65-years-old, Caucasian (75.5%), male (54.2%), malignant indication (79.3%), and preoperative biliary stent (59.0%). Overall, 275 (89.6%) BCs matured identifiable isolates with 152 (55.2%) demonstrating polymicrobial growth. Ninety-two (17.6%) SOICs were obtained: 48 and 44 occurred in patients with and without intraoperative BCs. Stents were associated with bacteriobilia (85.7%, K = 0.947, p < 0.001; OR 22.727, p < 0.001), but not postoperative infections (15.2%; K = 0.302, p < 0.001; OR 1.428, p = 0.122). Forty-eight patients demonstrated paired BC/SOICs to evaluate. Pathogenic concordance of this group was 31.1% (K = 0.605, p < 0.001) while SRP concordance of matched pathogens was 46.7% (K = 0.167, p = 0.008). CONCLUSION Bile cultures demonstrate poor concordance with the susceptibility/resistance patterns of postoperative infections following pancreaticoduodenectomy and may lead to inappropriate antibiotic therapies.

Abstract
Although clinical guidelines for antibiotic prophylaxis across a wide array of surgical procedures have been proposed by multidisciplinary groups of physicians and pharmacists, clinicians often deviate from recommendations. This is particularly true when recommendations are based on weak data or expert opinion. The goal of this review is to highlight certain common but controversial topics in perioperative prophylaxis and to focus on the data that does exist for the recommendations being made.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between bacterial infection and clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) has not been fully elucidated. METHODS Microbiological data for intraoperative bile culture (BC) and drain culture on postoperative day 4 (DC) were collected. The study population was classified into the following three groups: P1 (positive BC and DC), P2 (positive BC and negative DC), and N (negative BC). A total of 209 patients (P1: 38, P2: 72, and N: 99) who underwent PD between May 2013 and May 2018 met the inclusion criteria of the study. RESULTS The rate of CR-POPF was significantly higher in the P1 group (34.2%) than in the P2 (12.5%; P = .007) and N groups (14.1%; P = .008). Between P1 and P2 groups, a significant difference was observed in the proportion of Enterococcus faecalis grown in BC (42.1% vs 4.2%; P < .001). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the presence of E faecalis in bile was independently associated with CR-POPF. CONCLUSIONS The detection of both bile and postoperative abdominal fluid infections can be more accurate in predicting CR-POPF. Furthermore, the presence of E faecalis in bile may serve as a novel surrogate marker for CR-POPF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few reports have addressed postoperative infectious complications caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens. The aim of this study was to review the surgical outcomes of patients undergoing major hepatectomy with extrahepatic bile duct resection and to clarify the incidence of and the risk factors for postoperative infectious complications caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens. METHODS Medical records of consecutive patients who underwent major hepatectomy with extrahepatic bile duct resection between 2006 and 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS Among 620 study patients, 219 had postoperative infectious complications, including 62 (10.0%) with postoperative infectious complications caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens. The mortality of the 62 patients with postoperative infectious complications caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens was higher (n = 8, 12.9%) than that in the 157 patients with postoperative infectious complications caused by non-multidrug-resistant pathogens(n = 2, 1.3%) (P < .001). With multivariate analysis, the presence of preoperative cholangitis, the extent of liver resection more than 50%, operative time longer than 600 minutes, the amount of blood loss more than 1500 mL, and the presence of postoperative infectious complications caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens were identified as independent risk factors for postoperative death. The presence of multidrug-resistant pathogens in preoperative bile culture, the amount of blood loss greater than 1500 mL, the presence of bile leakage, and pancreatic fistula were identified as independent risk factors for postoperative infectious complications caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens. CONCLUSION The incidence of postoperative infectious complications caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens in patients undergoing major hepatectomy with extrahepatic bile duct resection is high, approximately 10%. This troublesome complication is closely associated with postoperative death. Thus, preventing postoperative infectious complications caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens is an urgent task to improve surgical outcome after major hepatectomy with extrahepatic bile duct resection.

Abstract
Background The management of infectious complications is important in pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). We sought to determine the significance of preoperative surveillance bile culture in perioperative management of PD. Methods This study enrolled 69 patients who underwent PD for malignant tumors at a single institute between 2014 and 2017. Surveillance bile culture was performed before or during surgery. Correlations between the incidence of infectious postoperative complications and clinicopathological parameters, including bile cultures, were evaluated. Results Preoperative positive bile culture was confirmed in 28 of 51 patients (55%). Bile culture was positive in 27 of 30 cases (90%) with preoperative biliary drainage, and 1 of 21 cases (5%) without drainage (p < 0.01). Preoperative isolated microorganisms in bile were consistent with those detected in surgical sites in 11 of 27 cases (41%). Cases with positive multi-drug-resistant bacteria in preoperative bile culture showed significantly higher incisional SSI after PD (p = 0.01). The risk factors for the incidence of organ/space SSI were soft pancreatic texture (p = 0.01) and smoking history (p = 0.02) by multivariate analysis. Preoperative positive bile culture was neither associated with organ/space SSI nor overall postoperative complications. Conclusions Preoperative surveillance bile culture is useful for the management of wound infection, prediction of causative pathogens for infectious complications, and the selection of perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis.

Abstract
Background: Despite advances in surgical techniques and peri-operative management, post-operative infectious complications still are common after perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (PHCC). This study investigated the predictive factors and microbial spectrum for infections after hepatectomy with cholangiojejunostomy performed to treat PHCC. Methods: A total of 70 consecutive patients, who underwent hepatectomy with cholangiojejunostomy by the same surgeons at a tertiary referral medical center between September 2010 and January 2019, were enrolled. Clinical data were reviewed for multivariable analysis to find independent risk factors for infectious complications. Microorganisms isolated from bile and infection sites were counted to explore the microbial spectrum. Results: A total of 43 patients (61.4%) suffered post-operative infections (33 with surgical site infection [SSI], four with bacteremia, three with pneumonia, 10 with cholangitis, and two with fungus infectious stomatitis), and 28 of them (65.1%) had a positive bile culture. Four independent risk factors were identified: male sex (odds ratio [OR] 12.737; 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.298-70.611; p = 0.004), red blood cell (RBC) count <3.8 × 1012/L (OR 5.085; 95% CI 1.279-20.211; p = 0.021), total cholesterol (TC) <2.90 mmol/L (OR 5.715; 95% CI 1.534-21.299; p = 0.009), and serum Na+ >145 mmol/L (OR 10.387; 95% CI 1.559-69.201; p = 0.016) on post-operative day (POD) 1. A total of 217 and 196 microorganisms were cultured from 311 and 627 specimens, respectively, collected from pre-/intra-operative bile and possible infection sites. Staphylococcus, Enterococcus, Acinetobacter, Streptococcus, and Escherichia were the most common findings of bile culture. The first five organisms most frequently isolated from infection sites were Enterococcus, Staphylococcus, Klebsiella, Acinetobacter, and Candida. A total of 18 patients (64.3%) had at least one species isolated from infection sites that had appeared in a previous bile culture. Conclusions: Male sex, erythrocytopenia, hypocholesterolemia, and hypernatremia on POD 1 are independent risk factors for infectious complications. For patients without positive bile cultures, third-generation cephalosporins could be considered as the prophylactic antibiotic. It is important to monitor the pathogens throughout the hospital stay.

Efficacy of a Dual-ring Wound Protector for Prevention of Surgical Site Infections After Pancreaticoduodenectomy in Patients With Intrabiliary Stents: A Randomized Clinical Trial. Ann Surg 2019; 268:35-40.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of a dual-ring wound protector for preventing incisional surgical site infection (SSI) among patients with preoperative biliary stents undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). METHODS AND ANALYSIS This study was a parallel, dual-arm, double-blind randomized controlled trial. Adult patients with a biliary stent undergoing elective PD at 2 tertiary care institutions were included (February 2013 to May 2016). Patients were randomly assigned to receive a surgical dual-ring wound protector or no wound protector, and also the current standard of care. The main outcome measure was incisional SSI, as defined by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention criteria, within 30 days of the index operation. RESULTS A total of 107 patients were recruited (mean age 67.2 years; standard deviation 12.9; 65% male). No significant differences were identified between the intervention and control groups (age, sex, body mass index, preoperative comorbidities, American Society of Anesthesiologists class, prestent cholangitis). There was a significant reduction in the incidence of incisional SSI in the wound protector group (21.1% vs 44.0%; relative risk reduction 52%; P = 0.010). Patients with completed PD also displayed a decrease in incisional SSI with use of the wound protector compared with those palliated surgically (27.3% vs 48.7%; P = 0.04). Multivariate analysis did not identify any significant modifying factor relationships (estimated blood loss, duration of surgery, hospital site, etc.) (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION Among adult patients with intrabiliary stents, the use of a dual-ring wound protector during PD significantly reduces the risk of incisional SSI.

Abstract
Liver gas gangrene is a rare condition with a highly mortality rate. Development of liver gas gangrene is associated with host conditions such as malignancy and immunosuppression. We report a case of liver gas gangrene after biliary surgery which is one of the risks of the liver parenchymal infection.
Introduction Liver gas gangrene is a rare condition with a highly mortality rate. It is mostly associated with host factors, such as malignancy and immunosuppression. Presentation of case A 57-year-old female was admitted to our hospital with abnormalities of her serum hepato-biliary enzymes. She had a history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, cerebral infarction, and chronic renal failure. She was diagnosed with bile duct cancer of the liver hilum and a left hepatectomy was carried out, with extrahepatic bile duct resection. Initially her post-operative state was uneventful. However, she suddenly developed melena with anemia on post-operative day (POD) 18. A Computed tomography (CT) examination on POD 19 revealed a massive build up of gas and portal gas formation in the anterior segment of the liver. Although we immediately provided the drainage and a probe laparotomy, she died on POD 20 due to shock with disseminated intravascular coagulation. Discussion Liver gas gangrene is rare and has a high mortality rate. This case seems to have arisen from an immunosuppressive state after major surgery with biliary reconstruction for bile duct cancer and subsequent gastrointestinal bleeding, leading to gas gangrene of the liver.
