Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite advances in surgical techniques and care, pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) continues to have high morbidity and mortality rates. Complications such as sepsis, hemorrhage, pulmonary issues, shock, and pancreatic fistula are common postoperative challenges. A key concern in PD outcomes is the high incidence of infectious complications, especially surgical site infections (SSI) and postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF). Bacteriobilia, or bile contamination with microorganisms, significantly contributes to these infections, increasing the risk of early postoperative complications. The occurrence of SSI in patients who undergo hepatobiliary and pancreatic (HPB) surgeries such as PD is notably higher than that in patients who undergo other surgeries, with rates ranging from 20 to 55%. Recent research by D'Angelica et al. revealed that, compared to cefoxitin, piperacillin/tazobactam considerably lowers the rate of postoperative SSI. However, these findings do not indicate whether extending the duration of antibiotic treatment is beneficial for patients at high risk of bacterial biliary contamination. In scenarios with a high risk of SSI, the specific agents, doses and length of antibiotic therapy remain unexplored. The advantage of prolonged antibiotic prophylaxis following PD has not been established through prospective studies in PD patients following biliary drainage. METHODS This is an intergroup FRENCH-ACHBT-SFAR multicenter, open-labelled randomized, controlled, superiority trial comparing 2 broad-spectrum antibiotic (piperacillin/tazobactam) treatment modalities to demonstrate the superiority of 5-day postoperative antibiotic therapy to antibiotic prophylaxis against the occurrence of surgical site infections (SSI) following pancreaticoduodenectomy in patients with preoperative biliary stents. The primary endpoint of this study is the overall SSI rate, defined according to the ACS NSQIP, as a composite of superficial SSI, deep incisional SSI, and organ/space SSI. In addition, we will analyze overall morbidity, antibiotic resistance profiles, the pathogenicity of bacteriological and fungal cocontamination, the impact of complications after bile drainage and neoadjuvant treatment on the bacteriological and fungal profile of biliculture and cost-effectiveness. CONCLUSION This FRENCH24-ANIS study aims to evaluate 5-day post-operative antibiotic therapy combined with antibiotic prophylaxis on the occurrence of surgical site infections (SSI) following pancreaticoduodenectomy in patients with preoperative biliary stents.

Pancreaticoduodenectomy after bilirubin adsorption for distal cholangiocarcinoma with severe obstructive jaundice refractory to repeat preoperative endoscopic biliary drainage: a case report. Clin J Gastroenterol 2024; 17:711-716.

Abstract
The necessity of biliary drainage before pancreaticoduodenectomy remains controversial in cases involving malignant obstructive jaundice; however, the benefits of biliary drainage have been reported in cases with severe hyperbilirubinemia. Herein, we present the case of a 61-year-old man suffering from jaundice due to distal cholangiocarcinoma. In this case, obstructive jaundice was refractory to repeat endoscopic drainage and bilirubin adsorption. Hyperbilirubinemia persisted despite successful implementation of biliary endoscopic sphincterotomy and two rounds of plastic stent placements. Stent occlusion and migration were unlikely and oral cholagogues proved ineffective. Owing to the patient's surgical candidacy and his aversion to nasobiliary drainage due to discomfort, bilirubin adsorption was introduced as an alternative therapeutic intervention. Following repeated adsorption sessions, a gradual decline in serum total bilirubin levels was observed and pancreaticoduodenectomy was scheduled. The patient successfully underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy with portal vein resection and reconstruction and D2 lymph node dissection. After the surgery, the serum bilirubin levels gradually decreased and the patient remained alive, with no recurrence at 26 months postoperatively. Therefore, this case highlights the feasibility and safety of performing pancreaticoduodenectomy in patients with severe, refractory jaundice who have not responded to repeated endoscopic interventions and have partially responded to bilirubin adsorption.

Abstract
The therapeutic possibilities of endoscopy have rapidly increased in the last decades and now allow organ-sparing treatment of early upper gastrointestinal malignancy as well as an increasing number of options for symptom palliation. This review contains an overview of the interventional endoscopic procedures in upper gastrointestinal malignancies. It describes endoscopic treatment of early oesophageal and gastric cancers, and the palliative options in managing dysphagia and gastric outlet obstruction. It also provides an overview of the therapeutic possibilities of biliary endoscopy, such as retrograde stenting and radiofrequency biliary ablation. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided therapeutic options are discussed, including biliary drainage, gastrojejunostomy and coeliac axis block. To aid in clinical decision making, the procedures are described in the context of their indication, efficacy, risks and limitations.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Endoscopic transpapillary approach by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is the established technique for preoperative biliary drainage (PBD). Recently, endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) has been reported to be a useful alternative technique after ERCP fail. However, the optimal strategy remain controversial. AREA COVERED This review summarizes the literature on EUS-BD techniques for PBD with a literature search using PubMed, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials database between 2000 and 2023 using keywords for 'preoperative biliary drainage' and all types of EUS-BD techniques. EXPERT OPINION As there is no consensus on the optimal EUS-BD technique for PBD, selection of the EUS-BD approach depends on the patient's condition, the biliary obstruction site, the anastomosis after surgical intervention, and the preference of the endoscopist. However, we consider that EUS-HGS using a dedicated plastic stent may have some advantages in the adverse impact of surgical procedure because the location where the fistula is created by EUS-HGS is away from the site of the surgical procedure. Although there remain many issues that require further investigation, EUS-BD can be a feasible and safe alternative method of PBD for malignant biliary obstruction after ERCP fail.

Abstract
Background and Objectives. Cholestasis activates complex mechanisms of liver injury and as a result has an increased production of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP). Depending on the stage of liver disease, different matrix metalloproteinases expressions have been detected and could serve as indirect biomarkers as well as therapeutic targets. MMP-9 proteolytic activity has a proven role in both liver regeneration and neoplastic cell invasion in various malignancies. The purpose of this prospective cohort study was to evaluate the effect of external biliary drainage on enzyme activity of MMP-9 in the serum of patients with malignant hilar biliary obstruction. Materials and Methods. Between November 2020 and April 2021, 45 patients with malignant hilar biliary obstruction underwent percutaneous biliary drainage following determination of serum MMP-9 enzyme activity (before treatment and 4 weeks after the treatment) by gelatin zymography. Results. MMP-9 values decreased statistically significantly 4 weeks after percutaneous biliary drainage (p = 0.028) as well as the value of total bilirubin (p < 0.001), values of direct bilirubin (p < 0.001), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (p < 0.001), alanine transaminase (ALT) (p < 0.001), and gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) (p < 0.001). Conclusions. In patients with malignant hilar biliary obstruction treated by external percutaneous biliary drainage for cholestasis resolution, a significant reduction in MMP-9 serum values was noted 4 weeks after the treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE EUS-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) has recently been reported to be a useful salvage technique after ERCP fail. However, data on EUS-BD used for preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) are limited. The aim of this study was to verify the clinical feasibility of EUS-BD for PBD. METHODS PBD was performed for malignant biliary obstruction in 318 patients at our institution between July 2014 and April 2022. Fifteen (4.7%) of these patients underwent surgical resection after preoperative EUS-BD (HGS 13; HDS 1; AGS with HGS 1) and were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS The stent was successfully placed in all 15 cases with a median procedure time of 15 min (technical success rate 100%). The median total bilirubin value decreased significantly from 3.7 before drainage to 0.9 after surgery (p < .001) and cholangitis was well managed (clinical success rate 100%). Surgery was performed at a median of 22 days after drainage, and there were no stent-related adverse events or recurrences of biliary obstruction. Severe surgery-related adverse events occurred in three cases, but none were associated with EUS-BD. The stent was removed during surgery in 12 cases. CONCLUSIONS EUS-BD can be a feasible and safe alternative method of PBD for malignant biliary obstruction after ERCP fail.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is still a lack of clarity about the benefits of preoperative biliary drainage (PBD), which was introduced to improve the perioperative outcome in patients with obstructive jaundice caused by a periampullary tumour. The aim of this study was to determine whether operative and postoperative complications increase in patients undergoing PBD during pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). MATERIAL AND METHODS Retrospective examination was made of patients who underwent PBD for a periampullary tumour in our hospital between 2006 and 2014. From these, the patients were identified who had PBD with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and these patients were further separated into two groups, as one group of patients with plastic stents and the other group of patients with metallic stents. Patients with pancreas head cancer were also separated into two groups as those who were and were not applied with PBD. The preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative characteristics of the patients were evaluated. RESULTS A total of 123 patients were retrospectively reviewed. Biliary stent placement with PBD was applied to 48 patients, of whom 31 had metallic stents and 17 had plastic stents. In general, there was no difference between the PBD and the non-PBD groups in respect of the preoperative, operative and postoperative results. When patients with tumour of the pancreas head only were examined, the rate of wound infection was higher in the PBD group and there was no difference in the other parameters. Moreover, there was no difference between the patients with metallic stents and those with plastic stents in respect of outcomes. CONCLUSIONS With the exception of wound site infection, although no difference was observed between the PBD and the non-PBD groups based on intraoperative and postoperative complications, because of the distinctive inherent complications of PBD it is essential to manage such patients properly and to carefully select the patients for the PBD procedure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited data are available regarding the effect of preoperative biliary stent, during long-course neoadjuvant chemotherapy, on postoperative complications. The aim of the study is to analyze whether the association of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and biliary stent increases overall and infectious complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy. METHODS Data for 538 consecutive pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy between 2015 and 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Four groups of patients were identified: neoadjuvant chemotherapy + biliary stent (171 patients), neoadjuvant chemotherapy-no biliary stent (65 patients), upfront surgery + biliary stent (184 patients), and upfront surgery-no biliary stent (118 patients). Median neoadjuvant chemotherapy duration was 6 months. The main outcome of the study was the occurrence of postoperative infections. RESULTS No differences among the 4 groups were observed for pancreaticoduodenectomy-specific complications (ie, POPF, DGE, PPH). Infectious complications, in particular surgical site infections, were more frequent in neoadjuvant chemotherapy + biliary stent group (P = 0.001). At multivariate analysis, biliary stent was significantly associated with postoperative infectious complications in the overall cohort (odds ratio 1.996, confidence interval 95% 1.29-3.09, P = .002) and in neoadjuvant chemotherapy patients (odds ratio 5.974, 95% confidence interval 2.52-14.13, P < .001). Biliary stent significantly increased the comprehensive complication index by 9.5% (95% confidence interval 0.04-0.64, P = 0.024) in the overall cohort and 18.9% (95% confidence interval 0.22-1.23, P = .005) in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy group. The presence of multidrug-resistant microorganisms in intraoperative bile culture was not influenced by long-course neoadjuvant chemotherapy. CONCLUSION In neoadjuvant chemotherapy patients, biliary stent increased the occurrence of postoperative infectious complications and surgical site infections, while the incidence of multidrug-resistant bacteria in intraoperative bile culture was similar between groups.

The effect of preoperative biliary drainage on postoperative complications of pancreaticoduodenectomy: a triple center retrospective study. BMC Surg 2022; 22:399.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Biliary obstruction which is a major complication of pancreas and periampullary tumors could result in cholangitis, coagulopathies, gastrointestinal symptoms, and impaired wound healing. Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is still the standard approach for pancreas resection and imposes high risk of morbidity and mortality to patients. To reduce the high risk of PD and address the biliary obstruction, the use of preoperative biliary stenting was increased. However, available literature doubts its efficiency.
Methods
A total of 147 patients who underwent PD between September 2012, and February 2022, at three medical centers were identified. Patients were grouped based on biliary stent placement. Non-jaundiced patients with and without preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) were compared.
Results
The incidence of overall complications (34.2% versus 45.8%) and mortality (17.8% versus 24.3%) did not differ in the PBD group compared to the no PBD group. There was no difference in complications and mortality in non-jaundiced patients with and without PBD. Patients with drainage duration of > 30 days experienced more overall complications compared to patients with less than 30 days drainage duration (12 (50.0%) and three (15.8%) patients, respectively, p-value = 0.019).
Conclusions
PBD does not significantly increase the post-operative burden on patients who undergo PD. However, we cannot overlook the financial burden that PBD places on the patient and the healthcare system, as well as the difficulties related to endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Therefore, biliary stenting should not be routinely practiced in the absence of a valid indication, such as severe jaundice, pruritus, cholangitis, delayed surgery for neoadjuvant treatment, or referral to a tertiary facility.

Abstract
PurposeBiliary drainage is an important modality for extrahepatic obstructive jaundice both in patients with palliative and resectable. Currently, endoscopic biliary drainage is preferred in clinical practice, including endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD) and endoscopic biliary stenting (EBS), both of which have their own advantages and disadvantages. The purpose of our study was to compare the safety and efficacy of endoscopic biliary stenting (EBS) only vs. EBS plus nasobiliary drain for obstructive jaundice.MethodsWe consecutively reviewed patients with endoscopic biliary drainage in our institution from November 2014 to March 2021. Combined (ENBD plus stent) and single approach (EBS only) were defined as combined approach and single modality, respectively, and all eligible patients were divided into a combined approach group and a single modality group. We compared combined vs. single modality approaches to investigate whether there were statistical differences in liver chemistries, postoperative adverse events, and stent patency time.ResultsIn 271 patients, a total of 356 times endoscopic biliary drainages were performed. All eligible patients were divided into the combined approach group (n = 74) and the single modality group (n = 271). The combined approach was associated with a lower incidence of postoperative cholangitis and bleeding and greater improvement in liver chemistries, although it was not statistically significant. However, it was superior to the single modality group in terms of hospital stay (12.7 ± 5.2 vs. 14.5 ± 7.9 days, p = 0.020 < 0.05) and stent patency time (8.1 ± 3.9 vs. 4.3±2.7 months, p = 0.001 < 0.05).ConclusionEndoscopic combined (ENBD plus stent) drainage is a more advantageous biliary drainage method that is characterized by more adequate biliary drainage, a lower incidence of postoperative adverse events, and longer effective biliary drainage time.

Cefotaxime resistance in bile samples is an independent predictor of deep infectious complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy in patients with endoprosthesis. JOURNAL OF HEPATO-BILIARY-PANCREATIC SCIENCES 2022; 30:514-522.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bacteriobilia may increase the rate of deep infectious complications (DIC) after pancreaticoduodenectomy. To better adjust prophylactic and empirical antibacterial treatment, we aimed to characterize bacteriobilia in patients with preoperative endoprosthesis, and its association with postoperative DIC. METHODS All patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy in our center between 2010 and 2019 were included. The association between microbiological findings from bile samples, and postoperative DIC was analyzed, and we compared microbiology data between 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 periods. RESULTS We enrolled 578 patients (median age 67 years [59-72], 58.7% males), of whom 220 (38.1%) had preoperative biliary endoprosthesis, with 197 (89.5%) positive peroperative bile samples pathogens were Enterobacterales, enterococci, and Candida albicans. The incidence of DIC was similar in patients with or without endoprosthesis (20.4% vs. 17.8%, P=0.352). Bacterial isolates collected during 2015-2019 were more resistant to cefotaxime than those recovered from 2010-2014 (45.5% vs. 25.5%, P=0.009). The only independent risk factor for DIC in patients with endoprosthesis was cefotaxime resistance in bile (hazard ratio 3.027 [1.115-8.216], P=0.03). CONCLUSIONS The incidence of DIC is high after pancreaticoduodenectomy, with or without endoprosthesis, despite routine postoperative treatment. Cefotaxime resistance, the only independent predictor of DIC in patients with endoprosthesis, has increased over time. Hence, cefotaxime may no longer be an appropriate empirical treatment.

Abstract
Purpose Gallbladder carcinoma (GBC) is the most common malignancy of the biliary tract, with a 5-year survival rate of 5%. The prognostic models to predict the prognosis of patients with GBC remain controversial. Therefore, to construct a prognosis prediction of GBC, a retrospective cohort study was carried out to investigate the prognostic nutritional index and histological grade in the long-term outcome of patients with GBC after radical surgery (RS). Methods A retrospective study of a total of 198 patients with GBC who underwent surgical treatment were enrolled. The hematological indicators, imageological data, and perioperative clinical data were acquired for statistical analysis and poor prognosis model construction. Results Prognostic nutrition index (PNI) < 45.88, maximum tumor diameter (MTD) > 2.24 cm, and jaundice (JD) were all associated with a poor prognosis in multivariate logistic regression analysis. The prognosis prediction model was based on the three risk factors, which indicated a superior predictive ability in the primary cohort [area under the curve (AUC) = 0.951] and validation cohort (AUC = 0.888). In multivariate Cox regression analysis, poorly differentiation (PD) was associated with poor 3-year survival. In addition, Kaplan-Meier (KM) survival analysis suggested that GBC patients with high-risk scores and PD had a better prognosis after RS (p < 0.05), but there was no significant difference in prognosis for patients with non-poorly differentiation (NPD) or low-risk scores after RS (p > 0.05). Conclusion Our prediction model for GBC patients with prognosis evaluation is accurate and effective. For patients with PD and high-risk scores, RS is highly recommended; a simple cholecystectomy can also be considered for acceptance for patients with NPD or low-risk score. The significant findings provide a new therapeutic strategy for the clinical treatment of GBC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) has been advocated to address the plethora of physiologic derangements associated with cholestasis. However, available literature reports mixed outcomes and is based on largely outdated and/or single-institution studies. METHODS Patients undergoing PBD prior to pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) for periampullary malignancy between 2014-2018 were identified in the ACS-NSQIP pancreatectomy dataset. Patients with PBD were propensity-score-matched to those without PBD and 30-day outcomes compared. RESULTS 8,970 patients met our inclusion criteria. 4,473 with obstruction and PBD were matched to 829 with no preoperative drainage procedure. In the non-jaundiced cohort, 711 stented patients were matched to 2,957 without prior intervention. PBD did not influence 30-day mortality (2.2% versus 2.4%) or major morbidity (19.8% versus 20%) in patients with obstructive jaundice. Superficial surgical site infections (SSIs) were more common with PBD (6.8% versus 9.2%), however, no differences in deep or organ-space SSIs were found. Patients without obstruction prior to PBD exhibited a 3-fold increase in wound dehiscence (0.5% versus 1.5%) additionally to increased superficial SSIs. CONCLUSION PBD was not associated with an increase in 30-day mortality or major morbidity but increased superficial SSIs. PBD should be limited to symptomatic, profoundly jaundiced patients or those with a delay prior to PD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatic tumours are frequently associated with obstructive jaundice requiring preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) before pancreatoduodenectomy (PD), exposing patients to infectious complications. This study aims to compare postoperative complications after PD with or without PBD and to analyse bile bacteriology and antibiotic susceptibility. METHODS All patients undergoing PD between 2014 and 2019 were retrospectively evaluated, and postoperative outcomes were compared according to PBD use. Prophylactic narrow-spectrum antibiotic therapy was given for 24 h, then adapted according to bacteriologic profile. Intraoperative bile cultures and antibiograms were collected. RESULTS Among 164 patients with intraoperative bile culture during PD (75 PBD+, 89 PBD-), an infected bile was observed in 95% and 70% of PBD + and PBD- groups, respectively (p < 0.001). Postoperative mortality and severe morbidity including infectious complications were similar between groups (5% and 15%). The median duration of antibiotherapy was longer in PBD + compared to PBD- groups (9 vs. 2 days, p = 0.009). Malignant indication and PBD were associated with bile contamination using univariate analysis, and PBD was significantly relevant at multivariate analysis. Most common pathogens identified in bile cultures were Escherichia coli, Klebsiella spp. and Enterobacter spp. Overall antibiotic susceptibility to commonly used antibiotics was decreased, including those used in our local guidelines. CONCLUSIONS PBD exposes nearly 100% of patients undergoing PD to bile infection and an increased duration of postoperative antimicrobial therapy, without increasing infectious complications in this study. Adaptation of antimicrobial prophylaxis should be further evaluated according to performance of PBD and local epidemiology, in order to avoid overuse of antibiotics.

Short-term preoperative drainage is associated with improved postoperative outcomes compared to that of long-term biliary drainage in pancreatic surgery. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2021; 407:1055-1063. [PMID: 34910230 PMCID: PMC9151545 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-021-02402-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2021] [Accepted: 12/06/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Purpose The treatment of choice for patients presenting with obstructive cholestasis due to periampullary carcinoma is oncologic resection without preoperative biliary drainage (PBD). However, resection without PBD becomes virtually impossible in patients with obstructive cholangitis or severely impaired liver cell function. The appropriate duration of drainage by PBD has not yet been defined for these patients. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 170 patients scheduled for pancreatic resection following biliary drainage between January 2012 and June 2018 at the University Hospital Dresden in Germany. All patients were deemed eligible for inclusion, regardless of the underlying disease entity. The primary endpoint analysis was defined as the overall morbidity (according to the Clavien-Dindo classification). Secondary endpoints were the in-hospital mortality and malignancy adjusted overall and recurrence-free survival rates. Results A total of 170 patients were included, of which 45 (26.5%) and 125 (73.5%) were assigned to the short-term (< 4 weeks) and long-term (≥ 4 weeks) preoperative drainage groups, respectively. Surgical complications (Clavien-Dindo classification > 2) occurred in 80 (47.1%) patients, with significantly fewer complications observed in the short-term drainage group (31.1% vs. 52%; p = 0.02). We found that long-term preoperative drainage (unadjusted OR, 3.386; 95% CI, 1.507–7.606; p < 0.01) and periampullary carcinoma (unadjusted OR, 5.519; 95% CI, 1.722–17.685; p-value < 0.01) were independent risk factors for postoperative morbidity, based on the results of a multivariate regression model. The adjusted overall and recurrence-free survival did not differ between the groups (p = 0.12). Conclusion PBD in patients scheduled for pancreatic surgery is associated with substantial perioperative morbidity. Our results indicate that patients who have undergone PBD should be operated on within 4 weeks after drainage.

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/OBJECTIVE Complete resection is the most effective treatment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HC) but may result in high morbidity and mortality. Most HC patients have jaundice, and preoperative biliary drainage may reduce their risk of obstructive jaundice. ERCP and PTBD have been advocated for this purpose. This retrospective study investigated the influence of ERCP versus PTBD versus their combination on the short-term outcomes of curative HC resection. METHODS Patients having curative HC resection with preoperative biliary drainage in a span of 26 years were reviewed and divided into groups according to drainage modality. Drainage-related and surgical complications and hospital mortality were compared between groups. Intention-to-treat analysis using a separate set of initial drainage data was performed. RESULTS Eighty-six patients were divided into: Group A, ERCP only, n = 32 (32/86 = 37.2%); Group B, PTBD only, n = 10 (10/86 = 11.6%); Group C, ERCP + PTBD, n = 44 (44/86 = 51.2%). International normalized ratio was significantly higher in Group B (p = 0.008). The three groups were comparable in operative details, hospital stay, and mortality. Fifty-two patients had postoperative complications. Significantly more patients in Groups A and C had subphrenic abscess (A: 25%, B: 0%, C: 9.1%; p = 0.035) and subsequent radiological drainage. Group A had insignificantly more patients with wound infection (31.3% vs 10% vs 22.7%, p = 0.334), chest infection (28.1% vs 20% vs 11.4%, p = 0.178), and urinary tract infection (6.3% vs 0% vs 0%, p = 0.133). The three groups had similar rates of major complications (p = 0.501). They also had comparable survival outcomes (overall, p = 0.370; disease-free, p = 0.569). Fifteen and 71 patients received PTBD and ERCP respectively as first drainage mode. These two groups were comparable in liver function, preoperative comorbidity, intraoperative details, and postoperative outcomes. CONCLUSION In the preoperative management of HC, the use of ERCP, PTBD or their combination is acceptable and can optimize patients' condition for curative HC resection.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to explore a possible relationship between preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) and overall survival in a national cohort of Swedish patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Background PBD has been shown to increase postoperative complications after PD, but its use is steadily increasing. There are a few small studies that have indicated that PBD might in itself negatively affect overall survival after PD. Methods Patients from the Swedish National Registry for tumors in the pancreatic and periampullary region diagnosed from 2010 to 2019 who underwent PD for PDAC were included. Kaplan-Meier curves, log-rank tests and Cox proportional hazards analyses were performed to investigate survival. Results Out of 15,818 patients in the registry, 3113 had undergone PD, of whom 1471 had a histopathological diagnosis of PDAC. Patients who had undergone PBD had significantly worse survival, but the effect of PBD disappeared in the multivariable analysis when elevated bilirubin at any time was included. Conclusions PBD does not independently influence survival after PD for PDAC, but this study implies that even a nominally increased preoperative bilirubin level might impair long-term survival.

Rungsakulkij N, Thongchai V, Suragul W, Vassanasiri W, Tangtawee P, Muangkaew P, Mingphruedhi S, Aeesoa S. Association of the rate of bilirubin decrease with major morbidity in patients undergoing preoperative biliary drainage before pancreaticoduodenectomy. SAGE Open Med 2021; 9:20503121211039667. [PMID: 34422273 PMCID: PMC8375332 DOI: 10.1177/20503121211039667] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2021] [Accepted: 07/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: The objective of this study was to examine the relationship between the rate of bilirubin decrease following preoperative biliary drainage before pancreaticoduodenectomy and postoperative morbidity. Methods: Records of patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy at the Department of Surgery in Ramathibodi Hospital between January 2008 and December 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. The patients were classified into either an adequate or inadequate drainage rate groups according to the bilirubin decrease rate. Major morbidity was defined as higher than grade II in the Clavien-Dindo classification. Risk factors for major morbidity were analyzed by logistic regression analysis. Results: In total, 166 patients were included in the study. Major morbidity was observed in 36 patients (21.6%). Adequate biliary drainage rate was observed in 39 patients (23.4%). Patients who had major morbidity were less likely to have come from the adequate biliary drainage rate group than the inadequate group (38.9% vs. 61.1%). However, through multivariate logistic analysis, only body mass index, operative time, and pancreatic duct diameter were independent factors associated with major morbidity, whereas the bilirubin decrease rate was not. Conclusions: Bilirubin decrease rate following preoperative biliary drainage has no significant association with major postoperative morbidity after pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Endoscopic versus percutaneous biliary drainage for resectable pancreatic head cancer with hyperbilirubinemia and impact on pancreaticoduodenectomy: A randomized controlled study. Int J Surg 2021; 93:106043. [PMID: 34371176 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijsu.2021.106043] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2021] [Revised: 07/09/2021] [Accepted: 07/29/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We hypothesized that percutaneous biliary drainage provides more short-term advantages over endoscopic stenting before pancreaticoduodenectomy. METHODS Between January 2019 and December 2010, a prospective cohort study was conducted. Sixty patients with potentially resectable pancreatic head cancers and high bilirubin levels were stratified into two equal groups according to the method of biliary drainage: endoscopic stenting or percutaneous drainage. The primary outcome measures were operative difficulties and early postoperative morbidity, the secondary outcome was post-drainage complications. RESULTS Both groups were comparable in age; gender; presenting symptoms, type of malignancy, post-drainage complications, and time intervals between drainage and surgery. Key preoperative significant differences were technically higher but clinical success rates was better in the PTD cohort. ERCP patients had significantly more difficult dissections, more blood loss, longer resection time, more postoperative bile leak, and longer hospital stay. CONCLUSION From the operative perspective, patients who underwent PTD in the preoperative setting had fewer morbidities and shorter hospital stay. Large scale studies are required to support the validity of these findings in surgical practice.

Abstract
Recent studies have indicated that preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) should not be routinely performed in all patients suffering from obstructive jaundice before pancreatic surgery. The severity of jaundice that mandates PBD has yet to be defined. The evaluated paper examines the impact of PBD on intra-operative, and post-operative outcomes in patients initially presenting with severe obstructive jaundice (bilirubin ≥250 μmol/L). In this key paper evaluation, the impact of PBD versus a direct surgery (DS) approach is discussed. The arguments for and against each approach are considered with regards to drainage associated morbidity and mortality, resection rates, survival and the impact of chemotherapy and malnutrition. Concentrating on resectable head of pancreas tumors, this mini-review aims to scrutinize the authors' recommendations, alongside those of prominent papers in the field.

Abstract
Backgrounds: Acinar cell carcinoma of the pancreas is a rare malignancy, and its features
remain unclear. We aimed to analyze the clinical characteristics, treatment
and prognosis of acinar cell carcinoma with our institutional case
series. Methods: Patients diagnosed with acinar cell carcinoma in our hospital between 2005
and 2019 were reviewed. Investigations on clinicopathological features,
treatment details and long-term survival were performed. Results: A total of 45 pathologically confirmed acinar cell carcinomas were
identified. The median age at diagnosis was 58 years with a male-to-female
ratio of 3.1:1. There were 24 (53.3%) localized, 5 (11.1%) locally advanced
and 16 (35.6%) metastatic cases, with a pancreatic head-to-body/tail ratio
of 1:1.4 for all the primary lesions. In the localized group, there were 10
pancreatoduodenectomy, 12 distal pancreatectomy, 1 total pancreatectomy, and
1 distal pancreatectomy combined with proximal gastrectomy. Among the
locally advanced and metastatic cases, 13 patients received chemotherapy, 1
received concurrent radiochemotherapy, 1 underwent synchronous resection of
primary tumor and liver metastasis, 1 underwent palliative operation, 1
underwent exploratory laparotomy, and 4 required no treatment. The median
overall survival of this series was 18.9 months with a 5-year survival rate
of 19.6%. Moreover, the resected acinar cell carcinoma patients were
associated with prolonged survival compared with the unresected cases (36.6
vs. 8.5 months, P < 0.001). Conclusions: Surgical resection could improve the long-term survival of acinar cell
carcinoma patients, which might also improve the prognosis of selected
metastatic cases. Large-scale studies are needed to further clarify the
biological behavior and clinical features, and to seek the optimal
treatments.

Acute Pancreatitis as the Initial Presentation of Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma does not Impact Short- and Long-term Outcomes of Curative Intent Surgery: A Study of the French Surgical Association. World J Surg 2021; 45:3146-3156.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute pancreatitis (AP) can be one of the earliest clinical presentation of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Information about the impact of AP on postoperative outcomes as well as its influences on PDAC survival is scarce. This study aimed to determine whether AP as initial clinical presentation of PDAC impact the short- and long-term outcomes of curative intent pancreatic resection. PATIENTS AND METHODS From 2004 to 2009, 1449 patients with PDAC underwent pancreatic resection in 37 institutions (France, Belgium and Switzerland). We used univariate and multivariate analysis to identify factors associated with severe complications and pancreatic fistula as well as overall and disease-free survivals. RESULTS There were 764 males (52,7%), and the median age was 64 years. A total of 781 patients (53.9%) developed at least one complication, among whom 317 (21.8%) were classified as Clavien-Dindo ≥ 3. A total of 114 (8.5%) patients had AP as the initial clinical manifestation of PDAC. This situation was not associated with any increase in the rates of postoperative fistula (21.2% vs 16.4%, P = 0.19), postoperative complications (57% vs 54.2%, P = 0.56), and 30 day mortality (2.6% vs 3.4%, P = 1). In multivariate analysis, AP did not correlate with postoperative complications or pancreatic fistula. The median length of follow-up was 22.4 months. The median overall survival after surgery was 29.9 months in the AP group and 30.5 months in the control group. Overall recurrence rate and local recurrence rate did not differ between groups. CONCLUSION AP before PDAC resection did not impact postoperative morbidity and mortality, as well as recurrence rate and survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are no established predictors for deciding between upfront surgery and PBD in pancreatic head malignancy. Once PBD is present, the ideal drainage-time remains elusive. The aim was, to identify predictors in jaundiced patients and ideal PBD-duration. METHODS Analysis of 304 patients with pancreatic head malignancy (56% with PBD, n = 170) undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed. Postoperative morbidity and survival were analyzed. RESULTS Postoperative complications increased after PBD (98.2% vs. 88.8%; p < 0.001). Patients with PBD received more postoperative antibiotics (42.4% vs. 21.6%; p < 0.001) and wound infections were increased (21.4% vs. 9.4%; p = 0.006). INR predicted postoperative morbidity (p = 0.026), whereas serum-bilirubin (p = 0.708), leucocytes (p = 0.158) and MELD-score (p = 0.444) had no impact. Complications were not different between long (>4 weeks) and short (<4 weeks) PBD-duration (p = 0.608). No life-threatening complications (CDIV + V) occurred after long drainage (0.0% vs. 8.9%; p = 0.028) and long-term survival was not compromised. CONCLUSIONS INR is a suitable predictor for postoperative outcome, while serum-bilirubin levels had no predictive value. The INR can help deciding between PBD and upfront surgery. If PBD is inevitable, drainage duration of >4 weeks reduced major complications. CATEGORY Clinical study.

Abstract
Simple Summary Improving outcomes in pancreatic cancer is achievable through the accumulation of marginal gains. There exists evidence of variation and undertreatment in many areas of the care pathway. By fully realising the existing opportunities, there is the potential for immediate improvements in outcomes and quality of life. Abstract Improving outcomes among patients with resectable pancreatic cancer is one of the greatest challenges of modern medicine. Major improvements in survival will result from the development of novel therapies. However, optimising existing pathways, so that patients realise benefits of already proven treatments, presents a clear opportunity to improve outcomes in the short term. This narrative review will focus on treatments and interventions where there is a clear evidence base to improve outcomes in pancreatic cancer, and where there is also evidence of variation and under-treatment. Avoidance of preoperative biliary drainage, treatment of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency, prehabiliation and enhanced recovery after surgery, reducing perioperative complications, optimising opportunities for elderly patients to receive therapy, optimising adjuvant chemotherapy and regular surveillance after surgery are some of the strategies discussed. Each treatment or pathway change represents an opportunity for marginal gain. Accumulation of marginal gains can result in considerable benefit to patients. Given that these interventions already have evidence base, they can be realised quickly and economically.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to construct and internally validate a nomogram for predicting major complications in obstructive jaundice patients planned to undergo pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). METHODS The clinical data of 835 obstructive jaundice patients who underwent PD in a high-volume center were collected and retrospectively analyzed during an 8-year period. Factors affecting the major complication rate were optimized by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis and were incorporated in logistic regression analysis. The performance of this nomogram was evaluated by discrimination, calibration, internal validation and clinical utility. RESULTS Predictors included in the model were sex, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, preoperative biliary drainage (PBD), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), hemoglobin, prealbumin, total bilirubin, transfusion, and pathology category. The model had good discrimination and calibration with a C-index of 0.700. Internal validation generated an acceptable C-index of 0.701. Decision curve analysis indicated this nomogram was clinically useful for predicting the possibility of major complications at a threshold between 1% and 59%. CONCLUSION This novel nomogram could be conveniently used and assist in decisions for PBD in clinical practice.

Abstract
Background The standard treatment for ampullary adenocarcinoma is pancreaticoduodenectomy. Identification of preoperative risk factors might help the clinician to select patients fit for resection and potentially decrease morbidity and mortality after PD. We conducted a cohort study to determine the preoperative factors related to 90-day severe morbidity and mortality after PD. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study in patients with a diagnosis of ampullary adenocarcinoma who underwent an open PD between January 2010 and December 2019 at our tertiary centre. Results Independent preoperative predictors of mortality were the albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) grade 3 (OR: 21.7; CI 95: 2.1–226.9; p=0.01) and the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <90 mL/min/1.73 m2 (OR: 17.7; CI 95: 1.8–172.6; p=0.013). The eGFR <90 mL/min/1.73 m2 (OR = 6.6; CI 95: 1.9–23.4; p=0.003) and prothrombin time (OR = 1.5; CI 95; 1.1–2.1; p=0.005) were independent predictors for severe morbidity. Conclusion These findings suggest that baseline renal function measured by the eGFR and liver function categorized with the ALBI grading are predictors of severe morbidity and mortality. Thus, they should be considered when selecting patients for PD or the use of neoadjuvant treatments. Further research is warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND After ERCP failure or if ERCP is declined for preoperative biliary drainage before pancreaticoduodenectomy, endoscopic ultrasound-guided choledochoduodenostomy (EUS-CDS) with electrocautery-enhanced lumen-apposing stents (ECE-LAMS) might be needed. The aim of the present study was to assess the technical feasibility and short-term outcomes of pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) following endoscopic ultrasound-guided choledochoduodenostomy (EUS-CDS) with electrocautery-enhanced lumen-apposing stents (ECE-LAMS). METHODS A retrospective study of all EUS-CDS procedures with ECE-LAMS followed by PD performed in France since the availability of the device in 2016. RESULTS 21 patients underwent PD in 9 departments of surgery following EUS-CDS with ECE-LAMS. The median bilirubin level at endoscopic procedure was 292 μmol/L. A 6 mm diameter stent was used in 20 cases. No complications occurred during the procedure. During the waiting time, 1 patient had an acute pancreatitis post ERCP and 3 patients developed cholangitis, treated by either an additional percutaneous biliary drainage, or an endoscopic procedure to extract a bezoar occluding the stent, or antibiotics, respectively. PD with a curative intent was performed in all cases. Overall, postoperative mortality was nil and postoperative morbidity occurred in 17 patients (81%), including 3 with severe complications (14%). No patient developed postoperative biliary fistula. In the 21 patients followed at least 6 months, no biliary complications occurred, and no tumor recurrence developed on the hepaticojejunostomy/hepatic pedicle. CONCLUSION Pancreaticoduodenectomy following EUS-CDS with ECE-LAMS is technically feasible with acceptable short-term postoperative outcome, including healing of biliary anastomosis.

Surg Endosc 2020; 35:6604-6611. [PMID: 33237466 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-020-08160-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2020] [Accepted: 11/15/2020] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Historically, pre-operative biliary stenting has been associated with higher infectious complication rates following pancreatoduodenectomy. However, alleviation of biliary obstruction is necessary for consideration of pre-operative chemotherapy, which may improve disease-free survival, or for mitigation of symptoms while awaiting surgery. Our aim is to compare contemporary post-operative complication risk among patients with pre-operative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) stenting compared to those without. METHODS Patients who underwent a pancreatoduodenectomy for pancreatic cancer with biliary obstruction within the ACS-NSQIP registry from 2014 to 2017 were identified. The primary outcome was to compare the risk of 30-day complication (composite outcome) between patients with and without pre-operative ERCP stenting. Propensity score matching was used to ensure balanced baseline characteristics and log-binomial regression models were used to estimate risk ratios for overall perioperative complication between groups. RESULTS From 6073 patients with obstructive jaundice undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy for pancreatic cancer, 92% (5564) were eligible for the study. After performing a propensity score matching on 20 baseline characteristics, 952 patients without stenting were matched to up to four patients who received pre-operative ERCP stenting (n = 3467) for a matched cohort of 4419. A total of 1901 (55%) patients with pre-operative ERCP stenting experienced a post-operative complication compared to 501 (53%) patients without stenting (risk ratio 1.04, 95% CI 0.97-1.11, p = 0.23). CONCLUSION Pre-operative ERCP stenting was not associated with an increased risk of post-operative complication in patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy with obstructive jaundice. Biliary stenting may be safely considered for symptom relief and to potentially facilitate pre-operative chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An absolute bilirubin level where preoperative biliary decompression (PBD) is indicated before pancreaticoduodenectomy has been elusive. Our goal was to identify a total bilirubin level whereby biliary decompression provides clear benefit, despite associated expenses and potential complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed a prospectively collected database of patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy at the Vidant Medical Center between 2007 and 2016. Patients were arbitrarily subdivided into 3 groups based on presenting bilirubin level (≤10 mg/dL, 10.1-14.9 mg/dL, and ≥15 mg/dL) to determine the presence of overall complications, severe complications (Clavien-Dindo classification ≥3), prolonged length of stay (>1 SD), readmissions, or mortality. RESULTS Common bile duct stenting independently predicted a higher incidence of complications in patients presenting with bilirubin ≤10 mg/dL (P = .03) vs. those patients going directly to surgery. No differences were observed for patients with bilirubin between 10.1 mg/dL and 14.9 mg/dL. Biliary decompression in patients with bilirubin ≥15 mg/dL independently predicted fewer overall (73.8% vs. 100%, P = .0082) and less severe complications (14.3% vs. 44.5%, P = .03) and lower readmission rates (15.8% vs. 55.6%, P = .03) vs. those going directly to surgery. Patients not undergoing biliary decompression underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy sooner than those decompressed (4.7 days vs. 17.2 days, P = .01). DISCUSSION All patients presenting with bilirubin ≥15 mg/dL should undergo PBD, while those with bilirubin ≤10 mg/dL should forego stent placement to avoid stent-related complications. The decision to stent between 10.1 and 14.9 mg/dL should be made on a case-by-case basis keeping in mind timeliness to definitive cancer treatment.

Abstract
Background: The high levels of bilirubin in patients with periampullary cancers may increase the morbidity or mortality after curative surgery. Objectives: We aimed at evaluating the predictive power of preoperative serum total bilirubin for the outcomes after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) in resectable periampullary cancers. Methods: The data of 80 patients, who had undergone PD, were retrospectively analyzed. Regarding the preoperative bilirubin, we opted for 20 mg/dL as the cut-off value to divide patients into two groups to be subjected to simple and multiple logistic regression. Results: A total of 80 patients with a mean age of 54.90 ± 14.33 years underwent PD. The median preoperative bilirubin level was 4.7 mg/dL and the majority of cases (88.8%) had bilirubin < 20 mg/dL. While there was no significant difference in the mortality between bilirubin groups (P = 0.266), bilirubin≥20 mg/dL remarkably increased the postoperative morbidity (P = 0.012, Odds ratio = 3.04); 57.5% of cases underwent biliary drainage before surgery, which did not impact the mortality and morbidity. Multiple analysis by a logistic regression model disclosed that the only statistically significant variable for mortality was the total operative time (P = 0.038) and among all factors, total bilirubin level was the only independent predictor for the morbidity status (P = 0.009). Conclusions: This study suggested that preoperative biliary drainage should only be limited to patients with high bilirubin levels (≥ 20 mg/dL) or expected delayed surgeries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Introduction of gut flora into the biliary system is common owing to biliary stenting in patients with obstructing pancreatic head cancer. We hypothesize that alteration of biliary microbiome modifies bile content that modulates pancreatic cancer cell survival. METHODS Human bile samples were collected during pancreaticoduodenectomy. Bacterial strains were isolated from contaminated (stented) bile and identified using 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing. Human pancreatic cancer cells (AsPC1, CFPAC, Panc1) were treated for 24 hours with sterile (nonstented) bile, contaminated (stented) bile, and sterile bile preincubated with 106 colony forming unit of live bacteria isolated from contaminated bile or a panel of bile acids for 24 hours at 37°C, and evaluated using CellTiter-Blue Cell Viability Assay (Promega Corp. Madison, WI). Human bile (30-50 μl/mouse) was coinjected intraperitoneally with 105 Panc02 mouse pancreatic cancer cells in C57BL6/N mice to evaluate the impact of bile on peritoneal metastasis 3 to 4 weeks after tumor challenge. RESULTS While all bile samples significantly reduced peritoneal metastasis of Panc02 cells in mice, some contaminated bile samples had diminished antitumor effect. All sterile bile (n = 4) reduced pancreatic cancer cell survival in vitro. Only 40% (2/5) of contaminated bile samples had significant effect. Preincubation of sterile bile with live Enterococcus faecalis or Streptococcus oralis modified the antitumor effect of sterile bile. These changes were not observed with culture media preincubated with live bacteria, suggesting live gut bacteria can modify the antitumor components present in bile. Conjugated bile acids were more potent than unconjugated cholic acid in reducing pancreatic cancer cell survival. CONCLUSION Alteration of bile microbiome from biliary stenting has a direct impact on pancreatic cancer cell survival. Further study is warranted to determine if this microbiome shift alters tumor microenvironment.

Abstract
The question of when and how to drain a malignant biliary obstruction (MBO), both intrinsic or extrinsic, remains a controversial point among endoscopists. An important factor that influences the decision to drain an MBO or not is if the patient is a surgical candidate or not and, in the former case, if the patients must undergo neoadiuvant chemotherapy or not. Other questions arising during biliary drainage in MBO patients is which type of stent should be chosen, plastic or metal, and if endoscopic biliary sphincterotomy must be performed or not when a stent is placed. The present review attempts to answer these questions and summarizes the optimal approach toward patients with MBO based on the available evidence.

Abstract
Background In the management of operable hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HC) patients with hyperbilirubinemia, preoperative biliary drainage is a measure to bring down the bilirubin to a certain level so as to avoid adverse postoperative outcomes that would otherwise result from hyperbilirubinemia. A cutoff value of bilirubin level in this context is needed but has not been agreed upon without controversy. This retrospective study aimed to identify a cutoff of preoperative bilirubin level that would minimize postoperative morbidity and mortality. Methods Data of patients having hepatectomy with curative intent for HC were analyzed. Discriminative analysis was performed to identify the preoperative bilirubin level that would make a survival difference. The identified level was used as the cutoff to divide patients into two groups. The groups were compared. Results Ninety patients received hepatectomy with curative intent for HC. Their median preoperative bilirubin level was 23 μmol/L. A cutoff preoperative bilirubin level of 75 μmol/L was derived from Youden’s index (sensitivity 0.333; specificity 0.949) and confirmed to be optimal by logistic regression (relative risk 9.250; 95% confidence interval 1.932–44.291; p = 0.005), with mortality shown to be statistically different at 90 days (p = 0.008). Patients were divided into Group A (≤75 μmol/L; n = 82) and Group B (> 75 μmol/L; n = 8). Group B had a higher preoperative bilirubin level (p < 0.001), more intraoperative blood loss (3.12 vs 1.4 L; p = 0.008), transfusion (100% vs 42.0%; p = 0.011) and replacement (2.45 vs 0.0 L; p < 0.001), more postoperative renal complications (p = 0.036), more in-hospital deaths (50% vs 8.5%; p = 0.004), and more 90-day deaths (50% vs 9.8%; p = 0.008). Group A had a longer follow-up period (p = 0.008). The groups were otherwise comparable. Disease-free survival was similar between groups (p = 0.142) but overall survival was better in Group A (5-year, 25.2% vs 0%; p < 0.001). On multivariate analysis, preoperative bilirubin level and intraoperative blood replacement were risk factors for 90-day mortality. Conclusion A cutoff value of preoperative bilirubin level of 75 μmol/L is suggested, as the study showed that a preoperative bilirubin level ≤ 75 μmol/L resulted in significantly less blood replacement necessitated by blood loss during operation and significantly better patient survival after surgery.

Abstract
The use of a plastic stent (PS) in resectable patients with distal malignant biliary obstruction (DMBO) is uncommon due to the high failure rate of this method. This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of a double-layer, large-diameter PS as a bridge to surgery compared with a conventional PS. This was a single-center retrospective cohort study. In total, 129 consecutive patients with DMBO underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy between January 2011 and March 2018. Fifty-five patients who preoperatively underwent plastic biliary drainage were enrolled. The patients were divided into two groups based on stent diameter: a large-diameter plastic stent (LPS) group and a small-diameter plastic stent (SPS) group. The primary endpoint was the stent patency period, and the secondary endpoint was the medical cost. Thirty-six patients received SPSs; 19 patients received LPSs. The patency rate until surgery was significantly higher in the LPS group than in the SPS group (89.5% vs. 41.7%, P = 0.0006). Multivariate analysis revealed that LPS use was significantly associated with sufficient stent patency. The total cost of LPS use was significantly lower than that of SPS use. LPSs had longer patency and reduced medical costs than SPSs. LPSs may be suitable for patients with DMBO who are scheduled to undergo surgery.

Best period to replace or change plastic stents with self-expandable metallic stents using multivariate competing risk regression analysis. Sci Rep 2020; 10:13080.

Abstract
In endoscopic biliary drainage (EBD) for various benign and malignant biliary disorders, the appropriate timing to replace or change a plastic stent (PS) with a self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) remains unclear. This study aimed to define the best period to replace or change a PS with a SEMS. Between January 1, 2012, and December 31, 2018, 1,887 consecutive EBD procedures, including 170 SEMS placements, were retrospectively identified. The period to recurrent biliary obstruction (PRBO) was estimated and compared between the malignant and benign groups and according to each disease using time to event analysis and competing risk analysis. Compared with the benign group, the malignant group had significantly shorter median PRBO with interquartile range (IQR) after PS placement [108 (39 – 270) vs. 613 (191 – 1,329) days, P < 0.001], even on multivariate analysis, with a subdistribution hazard ratio (SHR) of 3.58 (P < 0.001). The shortest PRBO distribution from the first quartile of the non-RBO period was seen in Mirizzi syndrome cases (25 days, P = 0.030, SHR = 3.32) in the benign group and in cases of pancreatic cancer (32 days, P = 0.041, SHR = 2.06); perihilar bile duct cancer (27 days, P = 0.006, SHR = 2.69); and ampullary cancer (22 days, P = 0.001, SHR = 3.78) in the malignant group. Our study supports that stent replacement for the benign group is feasible after 6 months, and the best period to replace or change a PS with a SEMS should be decided on the basis of the underlying disease to prevent RBO.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The benefit of preoperative biliary stenting in the treatment of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is controversially debated. Data from recent meta-analyses favor primary surgery for the majority of resectable pancreatic cancers. Regardless of this evidence, preoperative biliary stenting via endoscopy (EBS) is commonly performed, often before involvement of a surgeon. The goal of this study was to elucidate the association of bile duct stenting, microbiological dislocation of gut flora to the biliary compartment, and major postoperative complications. METHODS Patient data was derived from a prospectively maintained database including all pancreatic resections between January 2006 and December 2014. Patients receiving pancreaticoduodenectomy for malignant disease in the head of the pancreas with prior EBS were included. Microbiological data were obtained through conventional culture from intraoperative bile duct swabs. RESULTS Two hundred ninety-eight patients were enrolled in this study. Severe postoperative complications were associated with stent colonization: Postoperative pancreatic fistula type C occurred more frequently in E. coli-colonized patients (sample estimated odds ratio (OR) = 4.07), and the rate of lymphatic fistula was elevated in Enterococcus-colonized patients (OR = 3.25). Longer stenting duration (> 16 days) was associated with the prevalence of these bacteria. CONCLUSION Major surgical complications following pancreaticoduodenectomy, including severe pancreatic fistula, are associated with bacterobilia after EBS. The indication for bile duct stenting should be evaluated in a multidisciplinary setting.

Abstract
Biliary obstruction is common in pancreatobiliary malignancies and has a negative impact on the patient’s quality of life, postoperative complications, and survival rates. Particularly in the last decade, there has been enormous progress regarding the diagnostic and therapeutic options in patients with malignant biliary obstruction. Endoscopy has given a new insight in this direction and novel techniques have been developed for the better characterization and treatment of malignant strictures. We herein summarize the available data on the different endoscopic techniques, and clarify their role in the diagnosis and treatment of malignant biliary obstructive disease. Finally, we propose an algorithm that can facilitate management decisions in these patients.

Preoperative biliary drainage of severely obstructive jaundiced patients decreases overall postoperative complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy: A retrospective and propensity score-matched analysis. Pancreatology 2020; 20:529-536. [PMID: 32107192 DOI: 10.1016/j.pan.2020.02.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2019] [Revised: 01/16/2020] [Accepted: 02/01/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The influence of preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) for obstructive jaundiced patients before pancreaticoduodenectomy is debated in the past decades. The aim of this study is to assess the impact of preoperative biliary drainage on intraoperative and postoperative outcomes in patients with severely obstructive jaundice. METHODS Data were collected retrospectively from severely obstructive jaundiced patients with serum total bilirubin level exceeding 250 μmol/L and undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy from January 2012 to December 2017. The univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to assess independent risk factors for overall postoperative complications. A propensity score-matched (PSM) analysis was performed to adjust baseline characteristics between PBD and direct surgery (DS) groups. After PSM, intraoperative data and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. RESULTS A total of 200 patients were included. The rate of overall postoperative complication occurred in 119 (59.5%) patients, with prealbumin <150 mg/L (OR = 3.03; 95%CI = [1.63-5.62]; p < 0.001), ASA (American Society of Anesthesiology score) classification II-III (OR = 2.27; 95%CI = [1.21-4.27]; p = 0.011), and direct surgery (OR = 3.88; 95%CI = [1.67-8.99]; p = 0.002) identified as independent risk factors in multivariate analysis. After PSM, there was similar operative time and intraoperative transfusion between PBD and DS group. However, DS group had a higher incidence of overall postoperative complication (p = 0.005), grades B and C of post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH) (p = 0.032), and grades B and C of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) (p = 0.045) compared to PBD group. CONCLUSIONS In this retrospective study, in order to reduce overall postoperative complications, PBD should be performed routinely for those patients with serum total bilirubin level exceeding 250 μmol/L and undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol is an evidence-based perioperative care program aimed at reducing surgical stress response and accelerating recovery. However, a small proportion of patients fail to benefit from the ERAS program following pancreaticoduodenectomy. This study aimed to identify the risk factors associated with failure of ERAS program in pancreaticoduodenectomy. METHODS Between May 2014 and December 2017, 176 patients were managed with ERAS program following pancreaticoduodenectomy. ERAS failure was indicated by prolonged hospital stay, unplanned readmission or unplanned reoperation. Demographics, postoperative recovery and compliance were compared of those ERAS failure groups to the ERAS success group. RESULTS ERAS failure occurred in 59 patients, 33 of whom had prolonged hospital stay, 18 were readmitted to hospital within 30 days after discharge, and 8 accepted reoperation. Preoperative American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score of ≥III (OR = 2.736; 95% CI: 1.276-6.939; P = 0.028) and albumin (ALB) level of <35 g/L (OR = 3.589; 95% CI: 1.403-9.181; P = 0.008) were independent risk factors associated with prolonged hospital stay. Elderly patients (>70 years) were on a high risk of unplanned reoperation (62.5% vs. 23.1%, P = 0.026). Patients with prolonged hospital stay and unplanned reoperation had delayed intake and increased intolerance of oral foods. Prolonged stay patients got off bed later than ERAS success patients did (65 h vs. 46 h, P = 0.012). Unplanned reoperation patients tended to experience severer pain than ERAS success patients did (3 score vs. 2 score, P = 0.035). CONCLUSIONS Patients with high ASA score, low ALB level or age >70 years were at high risk of ERAS failure in pancreaticoduodenectomy. These preoperative demographic and clinical characteristics are important determinants to obtain successful postoperative recovery in ERAS program.

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 Hyperbilirubinemia is commonly observed in patients requiring pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). Thus far, literature regarding the danger of operating in the setting of hyperbilirubinemia is equivocal. What remains undefined is at what specific level of bilirubin there is an adverse safety profile for undergoing PD. The aim of this study is to identify the optimal safety profile of patients with hyperbilirubinemia undergoing PD. PATIENTS AND METHODS The present work analyzed 803 PDs from 2004 to 2018. A generalized additive model was used to determine cutoff values of total serum bilirubin (TB) that were associated with increases in adverse outcomes, including 90-day mortality. Subgroup comparisons and biliary stent-specific analyses were performed for patients with TB below and above the cutoff. RESULTS TB of 13 mg/dL was associated with an increase in 90-day mortality (P = 0.043) and was the dominant risk factor on multivariate logistic regression [odds ratio (OR) 8.193, P = 0.001]. Increased TB levels were also associated with reoperations, number of complications per patient, and length of stay. Patients with TB greater than or equal to 13 mg/dL (TB ≥ 13) who received successful biliary decompression through stenting had less combined death and serious morbidity (P = 0.048). CONCLUSIONS Preoperative TB ≥ 13 mg/dL was associated with increased 90-day mortality after PD. Reducing a TB ≥ 13 is generally recommended before proceeding to surgery.

Abstract
Malignant biliary obstruction is a challenging condition, requiring a multimodal approach for both diagnosis and treatment. Pancreatic adenocarcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma are the leading causes of malignant distal biliary obstruction. Early diagnosis is difficult to establish as biliary obstruction can be the first presentation of the underlying disease, which can already be at an advanced stage. Consequently, the majority of patients (70%) with malignant distal biliary obstruction are unresectable at the time of diagnosis. The association of clinical findings, laboratory tests, imaging, and endoscopic modalities may help in identifying the underlying cause. Novel endoscopic techniques such as cholangioscopy, intraductal ultrasonography, or confocal laser endomicroscopy have been developed with promising results, but are not used in routine clinical practice. As the number of patients with malignant distal biliary obstruction who will undergo curative surgery is limited, endoscopy has a crucial role in palliation, to relieve biliary obstruction. According to the last European guidelines published in the management of biliary obstruction, self-expandable metal stents have a central place in biliary drainage compared to plastic stents. Endoscopic ultrasound has evolved impressively in the last decades. When standard techniques of biliary cannulation by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography fail, endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainage is a good option compared to percutaneous drainage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE The impact of preoperative biliary stenting (PBS) before pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is controversial. METHODS Patients undergoing PD with or without PBS for PDAC were identified from the German DGAV-StuDoQlPancreas registry. The impact of PBS on perioperative complications was analyzed. RESULTS 1133 patients undergoing PD for PDAC were identified from the registry. After matching, 480 PBS patients vs. 480 patients without PBS were analyzed. Postoperative complications Clavien-Dindo classification (CDC) grade IIIa-IVb were higher in PBS patients (PBS 27% vs. no PBS 22%, p = 0.027). 320 PBS patients (66%) had no history of jaundice. In these patients, PBS was associated with higher morbidity. In contrast, PBS was not associated with higher complication rates in patients with history of jaundice. Serum bilirubin levels of 15 mg/dl and higher lead to more CDC IIIa-IVb (24% vs. 28%, p = 0.053) and higher mortality (3% vs. 7%, p < 0.001). PBS in patients with serum bilirubin levels of >15 mg/dl increased CDC IIa-IVb complications (21% vs. 50%, p = 0.001), mortality was equivalent. CONCLUSION Most PBS procedures were performed in patients with no history of jaundice and increased morbidity. Serum bilirubin levels >15 mg/dl lead to higher morbidity and mortality. PBS correlated with higher complication rates in these patients.

Abstract
Background
Preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) in patients with obstructive jaundice from periampullary neoplasms may reduce the untoward effects of biliary obstruction and subsequent postoperative complications. However, PBD is associated with bile contamination and increases infectious complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD).
Objectives
To determine whether PBD is associated with more complications after PD.
Methods
Patients with obstructive jaundice from periampullary lesions who underwent PD from 2000 to 2015 at our institution were retrospectively enrolled. The cohort was divided into a group with PBD and a group without. PBD was performed using one of the following methods: endoprosthesis, percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage, surgical biliary-enteric bypass, or T-tube choledochostomy. PDs were performed by the first author using uniform surgical techniques. Postoperative complications were recorded. Statistical analyses were conducted using an unpaired t, Fisher exact, or chi-squared tests as appropriate.
Results
There were 26 with PBD and 28 patients without. Patients in the 2 groups were similar in age, presenting serum bilirubin level, operative time, operative blood transfusion, and hospital stay. The group with PBD had longer duration of jaundice, more patients presenting with cholangitis, and more patients with carcinoma of the ampulla of Vater. The overall complications were higher in patients in the group with PBD than in the group without.
Conclusions
PBD was associated with more complications overall after PD. However, PBD was necessary and lifesaving in certain clinical situations and improved the condition of patients before they underwent PD. Routine PBD in patients with obstructive jaundice without definite indications is not recommended.
