Abstract
BACKGROUND The introduction of more effective chemotherapy a decade ago has led to increased use of neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The aim of this study was to assess the evolving use of NAT in individuals with PDAC undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) and to compare their outcomes with patients undergoing upfront operation. STUDY DESIGN The American College of Surgeons NSQIP Procedure Targeted Pancreatectomy database was queried from 2014 to 2019. Patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy were evaluated based on the use of NAT versus upfront operation. Multivariable analysis was performed to determine the effect of NAT on postoperative outcomes, including the composite measure optimal pancreatic surgery (OPS). Mann-Kendall trend tests were performed to assess the use of NAT and associated outcomes over time. RESULTS A total of 13,257 patients were identified who underwent PD for PDAC between 2014 and 2019. Overall, 33.6% of patients received NAT. The use of NAT increased steadily from 24.2% in 2014 to 42.7% in 2019 (p < 0.0001). On multivariable analysis, NAT was associated with reduced serious morbidity (odds ratio [OR] 0.83, p < 0.001), clinically relevant pancreatic fistulas (OR 0.52, p < 0.001), organ space infections (OR 0.74, p < 0.001), percutaneous drainage (OR 0.73, p < 0.001), reoperation (OR 0.76, p = 0.005), and prolonged length of stay (OR 0.63, p < 0.001). OPS was achieved more frequently in patients undergoing NAT (OR 1.433, p < 0.001) and improved over time in patients receiving NAT (50.7% to 56.6%, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION NAT before pancreatoduodenectomy increased more than 3-fold over the past decade and was associated with improved optimal operative outcomes.

Does Pancreatic Fistula Affect Long-Term Survival after Resection for Pancreatic Cancer? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13225803. [PMID: 34830957 PMCID: PMC8616191 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13225803] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2021] [Revised: 11/03/2021] [Accepted: 11/17/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary The real influence of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) on long-term survival after pancreatic cancer resection is unclear. The purpose of the present study was therefore to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of the impact of POPF on the disease-free and overall survival of patients with pancreatic cancer. Our results highlighted that clinically relevant POPF after surgery for PDAC seems to be significantly associated with shorter DFS and OS. Confirmation, with future studies, of a negative impact of POPF on survival may encourage the widespread use of risk-stratification tools for assessing fistula, centralization of patients, and probably a closer oncological follow-up. Abstract Background: The impact of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) on survival after resection for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains unclear. Methods: The MEDLINE, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases were searched for studies reporting on survival in patients with and without POPF. A meta-analysis was performed to investigate the impact of POPF on disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). Results: Sixteen retrospective cohort studies concerning a total of 5019 patients with an overall clinically relevant POPF (CR-POPF) rate of 12.63% (n = 634 patients) were considered. Five of eleven studies including DFS data reported higher recurrence rates in patients with POPF, and one study showed a higher recurrence rate in the peritoneal cavity. Six of sixteen studies reported worse OS rates in patients with POPF. Sufficient data for a meta-analysis were available in 11 studies for DFS, and in 16 studies for OS. The meta-analysis identified a shorter DFS in patients with CR-POPF (HR 1.59, p = 0.0025), and a worse OS in patients with POPF, CR-POPF (HR 1.15, p = 0.0043), grade-C POPF (HR 2.21, p = 0.0007), or CR-POPF after neoadjuvant therapy. Conclusions: CR-POPF after resection for PDAC is significantly associated with worse overall and disease-free survival.

Abstract
Surgery remains the only curative treatment of pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (pNEN). Here, we report the outcome after surgery for non-functional pNEN at a European Neuroendocrine Tumor Society (ENETS) center in Germany between 2000 and 2019; cases were analyzed for surgical (Clavien–Dindo classification; CDc) and oncological outcomes. Forty-nine patients (tumor grading G1 n = 25, G2 n = 22, G3 n = 2), with a median age of 56 years, were included. Severe complications (CDc ≥ grade 3b) occurred in 11 patients (22.4%) and type B/C pancreatic fistulas (POPFs) occurred in 5 patients (10.2%); in-hospital mortality was 2% (n = 1). Six of seven patients with tumor recurrence (14.3%) had G2 tumors in the pancreatic body/tail. The median survival was 5.7 years (68 months; [1–228 months]). Neither the occurrence (p = 0.683) nor the severity of complications had an influence on the relapse behavior (p = 0.086). This also applied for a POPF (≥B, p = 0.609). G2 pNEN patients (n = 22) with and without tumor recurrence had similar median tumor sizes (4 cm and 3.9 cm, respectively). Five of the six relapsed G2 patients (83.3%) had tumor-positive lymph nodes (N+); all G2 pNEN patients with recurrence had initially been treated with distal pancreatic resection. Pancreatic resections for pNEN are safe but associated with relevant postoperative morbidity. Future studies are needed to evaluate suitable resection strategies for G2 pNEN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The short-term morbidity associated with post-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is well established, however data regarding the long-term impact are lacking. We aim to characterize long-term oncologic outcomes of POPF after pancreatic resection through a single institution, retrospective study of pancreatic resections performed for adenocarcinoma from 2009 to 2016. METHODS Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, logistic regression, and multivariate analysis (MVA) were used to evaluate impact of POPF on overall survival (OS), disease free survival (DFS), and receipt of adjuvant chemotherapy (AC). RESULTS 767 patients were included. 82 (10.6%) developed grade B (n = 67) or C (n = 15) POPF. Grade C POPF resulted in decreased OS when compared to no POPF (20.22 vs 26.33 months, p = 0.027) and to grade B POPF (20.22 vs. 26.87 months, p = 0.049). POPF patients were less likely to receive AC than those without POPF (59.5% vs 74.9%, p = 0.003) and grade C POPF were less likely to receive AC than all others (26.7% vs 74.2%, p = 0.0001). CONCLUSION POPF patients are less likely to receive AC and more likely to have delay in time to AC. These factors are exacerbated in grade C POPF and likely contribute to decreased OS. These findings validate the clinical significance of the ISGPF definition of POPF.

Abstract
PURPOSE Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) with reported incidence rates up to 45% contributes substantially to overall morbidity. In this study, we conducted a retrospective evaluation of POPF along with its potential perioperative clinical risk factors and its effect on tumor recurrence. METHODS Clinical data on patients who had received pancreatoduodenectomy (PD), distal pancreatectomy (DP), or duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection (DPPHR) were prospectively collected between 2007 and 2016. A Picrosirius red staining score was developed to enable morphological classification of the resection margin of the pancreatic stump. The primary end point was the development of major complications. The secondary end points were overall and recurrence-free survival. RESULTS 340 patients underwent pancreatic resection including 222 (65.3%) PD, 87 (25.6%) DP, and 31 (9.1%) DPPHR. Postoperative major complications were observed in 74 patients (21.8%). In multivariable logistic regression analysis, POPF correlated with body mass index (BMI) (p = 0.025), prolonged stay in hospital (p<0.001), high Picrosirius red staining score (p = 0.049), and elevated postoperative levels of amylase or lipase in drain fluid (p≤0.001). Multivariable Cox regression analysis identified UICC stage (p<0.001), tumor differentiation (p<0.001), depth of invasion (p = 0.001), nodal invasion (p = 0.001), and the incidence of POPF grades B and C (p = 0.006) as independent prognostic markers of recurrence-free survival. CONCLUSION Besides the known clinicopathological risk factors BMI and amylase in the drain fluid, the incidence of POPF correlates with high Picrosirius red staining score in the resection margins of the pancreatic stumps of curatively resected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Furthermore, clinically relevant POPF seems to be a prognostic factor for tumor recurrence in PDAC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the impact of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) on patient disease-specific survival and recurrence after curative distal pancreatectomy (DP) for pancreatic cancer. DESIGN This was a retrospective case-control analysis. METHODS We examined the data of adult patients with a diagnosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) of the body and tail of the pancreas undergoing curative DP, over a 10-year period in 12 European surgical departments, from a prospectively implemented database. RESULTS Among the 382 included patients, 283 met the strict inclusion criteria; 139 were males (49.1%) and the median age of the entire population was 70 years (range 37-88). A total of 121 POPFs were observed (42.8%), 42 (14.9%) of which were CR-POPFs. The median follow-up period was 24 months (range 3-120). Although poorer in the POPF group, overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) did not differ significantly between patients with and without CR-POPF (p = 0.224 and p = 0.165, respectively). CR-POPF was not significantly associated with local or peritoneal recurrence (p = 0.559 and p = 0.302, respectively). A smaller percentage of patients benefited from adjuvant chemotherapy after POPF (76.2% vs. 83.8%), but the difference was not significant (p = 0.228). CONCLUSIONS CR-POPF is a major complication after DP but it did not affect the postoperative therapeutic path or long-term oncologic outcomes. CR-POPF was not a predictive factor for disease recurrence and was not associated with an increased incidence of peritoneal or local relapse. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04348084.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Positive margins in pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) for pancreatic cancer, specifically the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) margin, are associated with worse outcomes. Local therapies targeting these margins could impact on recurrence. This study analysed recurrence-patterns to identify whether strategies to control local disease could have a meaningful impact. METHODS (I) Systematic review to define recurrence patterns and resection margin status. (II) Additional retrospective study of PD performed at our centre. RESULTS In the systematic review, 23/617 evaluated studies were included (n = 3815). Local recurrence was observed in 7-69%. SMA margin (6 studies) was positive in 15-35%. In the retrospective study (n = 204), local recurrence was more frequently observed with a positive SMA margin (66 vs.45%; p = 0.005). Furthermore, in a multivariate cox-proportional hazard model, only a positive SMA margin was associated with disease recurrence (HR 1.615; 95%CI 1.127-2.315; p = 0.009). Interestingly, median overall survival was 20 months and similar for patients who developed local only, metastases only or simultaneous recurrence (p = 0.124). CONCLUSION Local recurrence of pancreatic cancer is common and associated with similar mortality rates as those who present with simultaneous or metastatic recurrence. Involvement of the SMA margin is an independent predictor for disease progression and should be the target of future adjuvant local therapies.

[PMID: 31466841 DOI: 10.1016/j.surge.2019.07.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2018] [Revised: 06/17/2019] [Accepted: 07/13/2019] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The influence of postoperative complications, specifically, pancreatic fistula (PF), on long-term oncologic outcome in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is unclear. METHODS Prospectively collected data of patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) for PDAC between 2008 and 2016 were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed. Deaths within 90 days were excluded. Median follow-up time was 22 months for the entire cohort (range 2-102 months). PF was graded as biochemical leak, grade B, or grade C according to the criteria of the International Study Group on Pancreatic Fistula. Postoperative complications were graded according to the Clavien-Dindo classification (CDC). Data on clinical and pathological characteristics as well as on recurrence and survival were collected. RESULTS Twenty-nine of the 148 identified patients (19%) developed PF, of whom 17 (11.4%) had a PF grade B or C. 29 patients developed a postoperative complication CDC grade 3 or 4. The respective 3-year disease-free survival was 15.5% and 19.2% (P = 0.725), and the 5-year overall survival was 20% and 16% (P = 0.914) in patients with and without PF. On multivariate analysis, the use of adjuvant chemotherapy, lymph node involvement, surgical margin involvement, and tumor grade were associated with patient survival. PF and postoperative complications CDC grade 3 or 4 were not associated with decreased long-term survival, disease-free survival or local recurrence rate. CONCLUSIONS While acknowledging the limited sample size, no association was seen between PF or postoperative complications and overall or disease-free survival in patients undergoing PD for PDAC.

Exploring the surgical landscape of pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasia in Austria: Results from the ASSO pNEN study group. Eur J Surg Oncol 2018; 45:198-206. [PMID: 30262324 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2018.08.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2018] [Revised: 08/09/2018] [Accepted: 08/24/2018] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasia (pNEN) show increasing incidence and management is complex due to biological heterogeneity. Most publications report isolated high-volume single-centre data. This Austrian multi-centre study on surgical management of pNENs provides a comprehensive real-life picture of quality indicators, recurrence-patterns, survival factors and systemic treatments. METHODS Retrospective, national cohort-study from 7 medium-/high-volume centres in Austria, coordinated under the auspices of the Austrian Society of Surgical Oncology (ASSO). RESULTS Two-hundred patients underwent resection for pNEN, 177 had non-functioning tumours and 31 showed stage 4 disease. Participating centres were responsible for 2/3 of pNEN resections in Austria within the last years. The mean rate of completeness of variables was 98.6%. Ninety-days mortality was 3.5%, overall rate of complications was 42.5%. Morbidity did not influence long-term survival. The 5-year overall-survival (OS) was 81.3%, 10-year-OS 52.5% and 5-year recurrence-free-survival (RFS) 69.8%. Recurrence was most common in the liver (68.1%). Four out of five patients with recurrence underwent further treatment, most commonly with medical therapy or chemotherapy. Multivariable analysis revealed grading (HR:2.7) and metastasis (HR:2.5) as significant factors for relapse. Tumours-size ≥2 cm (HR:5.9), age ≥60 years (HR:3.1), metastasis (HR:2.3) and grading (HR:2.0) were associated with OS. Tumours <2 cm showed 93.9% 10-year-OS, but 33% had G2/G3 grading, 12.5% positive lymph-nodes and 4.7% metastasis at diagnosis, each associated with significant worse survival. CONCLUSION Resection of pNENs in Austria is performed with internationally comparable safety. Analysed factors allow for risk-stratification in clinical treatment and future prospective trials. A watch-and-wait strategy purely based on tumour-size cannot be recommended.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The oncological impact of surgical complications has been studied in visceral and pancreatic cancer. AIM To investigate the impact of complications on tumour recurrence after resections for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours. METHODS We have retrospectively analysed 105 consecutive resections performed at the Royal Free London Hospital from 1998 to 2014, and studied the long-term outcome of nil-minor (<3) versus major (≥3) Clavien-Dindo complications (CD) on disease-free (DFS) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS The series accounted for 41 (39%) pancreaticoduodenectomies, two (1.9%) central, 48 (45.7%) distal pancreatectomies, eight (7.6%) enucleations, four (3.8%) total pancreatectomies. Sixteen (15.2%) were extended to adjacent organs, 13 (12.3%) to minor liver resections. Postoperative complications presented in 43 (40.1%) patients; CD grade 1 or 2 in 23 (21.9%), grades ≥3 in 20 (19%). Among 25 (23.8%) pancreatic fistulas, 14 (13.3%) were grades B or C. Thirty-four (32.4%) patients developed exocrine, and 31 (29.5%) endocrine insufficiency. Seven patients died during a median 27 (0-175) months follow up. Thirty-day mortality was 0.9%. OS was 94.1% at 5 years. Thirty tumours recurred within 11.7 (0.8-141.5) months. DFS was 44% at 5 years. At univariate analysis, high-grade complications were not associated with shorter DFS (p = 0.744). At multivariate analysis, no parameter was independent predictor for DFS or OS. The comparison of nil-minor versus major complications showed no DFS difference (p = 0.253). CONCLUSION From our series, major complications after P-NETs resection are not associated to different disease recurrence; hence do not require different follow up or adjuvant regimens.

Abstract
Pancreatic fistula (PF) is common after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Its effect on recurrence and survival is not known. Retrospective study of patients undergoing PD for periampullary adenocarcinomas (2000–2012). Standard statistical analyses were performed to determine the impact of PF on disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). There were 634 PDs (pancreatic adenocarcinoma: 347, other periampullary adenocarcinomas: 287). Any-grade PF developed in 81/634 (13%). Perioperative mortality rate was 1.7 per cent (11/634), higher in patients with PF (10 vs 0.5%, P < 0.001). In multivariable analysis, PF significantly reduced DFS in pancreatic [hazard ratio (HR) = 1.6, 95% confidence-interval (CI): 1.1–2.6, P = 0.043] but not in other periampullary adenocarcinomas [HR = 1.3 (95% CI: 0.8–2.2), P = 0.45]. Positive lymph nodes, margins, and high-grade histology were associated with decreased DFS and OS. Adjuvant therapy was associated with improved OS in pancreatic [HR = 0.7 (95% CI: 0.5–0.9), P = 0.02] but not in other periampullary adenocarcinomas [HR = 1.14 (95% CI: 0.8–1.7), P = 0.49]. PF did not alter OS in either group. After PD, PF is associated with decreased DFS in pancreatic but not in other periampullary adenocarcinomas. This decrease DFS did not alter OS. Tumor grade, lymph nodes, and resection margin status are associated with DFS and OS.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) performed for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) has a postoperative morbidity of 40-50%. In this study, we analyzed the impact of high grade complications after PD for PDA on overall survival. METHODS A total of 596 patients that underwent PD for PDA between 2001 and 2009 were identified from a prospective database. Complications were defined and graded (1-5) as per our Institutional Surgical Secondary Events Program. High grade complications were defined as ≥grade 3. Postoperative mortality (≤90 days) was excluded. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify factors associated with overall survival. RESULTS Median survival was 24 months. Overall complication rate was 51% (301/596). Low grade complications were recorded in 266 patients (45%) and high grade complications in 22% (n = 129). Our 90 day mortality was 3.7% (n = 22). Anastomotic fistula/leak/abscess rate was 14% (n = 82). Multivariate Cox-Regression analysis identified node positivity, estimated blood loss (EBL) >600 ml, length of stay (LOS) >10 days, margin positivity, and vascular procedures as predictors of decreased overall survival (P < 0.05). High grade complications were not associated with overall survival (P = 0.948). CONCLUSION In this study, the occurrence of high grade postoperative complications was not associated with overall survival.
