Dig Dis Sci 2024; 69:3450-3465. [PMID: 39044014 DOI: 10.1007/s10620-024-08547-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 06/21/2024] [Indexed: 07/25/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Early drain removal (EDR) has been widely accepted, but not been routinely used in patients after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and distal pancreatectomy (DP). This study aimed to evaluate the safety and benefits of EDR versus routine drain removal (RDR) after PD or DP. METHODS A systematic search was conducted on medical search engines from January 1, 2008 to November 1, 2023, for articles that compared EDR versus RDR after PD or DP. The primary outcome was clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF). Further analysis of studies including patients with low-drain fluid amylase (low-DFA) on postoperative day 1 and defining EDR timing as within 3 days was also performed. RESULTS Four randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and eleven non-RCTs with a total of 9465 patients were included in this analysis. For the primary outcome, the EDR group had a significantly lower rate of CR-POPF (OR 0.23; p < 0.001). For the secondary outcomes, a lower incidence was observed in delayed gastric emptying (OR 0.63, p = 0.02), Clavien-Dindo III-V complications (OR 0.48, p < 0.001), postoperative hemorrhage (OR 0.55, p = 0.02), reoperation (OR 0.57, p < 0.001), readmission (OR 0.70, p = 0.003) and length of stay (MD -2.04, p < 0.001) in EDR. Consistent outcomes were observed in the subgroup analysis of low-DFA patients and definite EDR timing, except for postoperative hemorrhage in EDR. CONCLUSION EDR after PD or DP is beneficial and safe, reducing the incidence of CR-POPF and other postoperative complications. Further prospective studies and RCTs are required to validate this finding.

Abstract
PURPOSE We retrospectively analyzed pancreatectomy patients and examined the occurrence rate and timing of postoperative complications (time-to-complication; TTC) and their impact on the length of postoperative hospital stay (POHS) to clarify their characteristics, provide appropriate postoperative management, and improve short-term outcomes in the future. METHODS A total of 227 patients, composed of 118 pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and 109 distal pancreatectomy (DP) cases, were analyzed. We examined the frequency of occurrence, TTC, and POHS of each type of postoperative complication, and these were analyzed for each surgical procedure. Complications of the Clavien-Dindo (CD) classification Grade II or higher were considered clinically significant. RESULTS Clinically significant complications were observed in 70.3% and 36.7% of the patients with PD and DP, respectively. Complications occurred at a median of 10 days in patients with PD and 6 days in patients with DP. Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) occurred approximately 7 days postoperatively in both groups. For the POHS, in cases without significant postoperative complications (CD ≤ I), it was approximately 22 days for PD and 11 days for DP. In contrast, when any complications occurred, POHS increased to 30 days for PD and 19 days for DP (each with additional 8 days), respectively. In particular, POPF prolonged the hospital stay by approximately 11 days for both procedures. CONCLUSION Each postoperative complication after pancreatectomy has its own characteristics in terms of the frequency of occurrence, TTC, and impact on POHS. A correct understanding of these factors will enable timely therapeutic intervention and improve short-term outcomes after pancreatectomy.

Evaluation and Recalibration of Risk-Stratified Pancreatoduodenectomy Drain Fluid Amylase Removal Criteria. J Gastrointest Surg 2023; 27:2806-2814. [PMID: 37935998 DOI: 10.1007/s11605-023-05863-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2023] [Accepted: 09/29/2023] [Indexed: 11/09/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Risk-stratified drain fluid amylase cutoff values for postoperative day 1 (POD1) (DFA1) and POD3 (DFA3) can guide early drain removal after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). The aim of this study was to evaluate and recalibrate cutoff values instituted in Feb 2019 using a prospective sequential cohort. METHODS We performed a single-institution prospective cohort study of consecutive patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy following implementation of institution-specific DFA cutoffs in February 2019 through April 2022. DFA values, drain removal, and clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistulas (CR-POPF) were analyzed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis determined optimal cutoff values. RESULTS In total, 267 patients, 173 (65%) low-risk and 94 (35%) high-risk, underwent 228 (85%) open and 39 (15%) robotic pancreatoduodenectomies. Seven (4%) low-risk patients and 21 (22%) high-risk patients developed CR-POPF. Drains were removed in 147 (55%) patients before/on POD3, with 1 (0.7%) CR-POPF. In low-risk patients, CR-POPF was excluded with 100% sensitivity if DFA1 < 286 (area under curve, AUC = 0.893, p = 0.001) or DFA3 < 97 (AUC = 0.856, p = 0.002). DFA1 < 137 (AUC = 0.786, p < 0.001) or DFA3 < 56 (AUC = 0.819, p < 0.001) were 100% sensitive in high-risk patients. Previously established DFA1 cutoffs of 100 (low-risk) and < 26 (high-risk) were 100% sensitive, while DFA3 cutoffs of 300 (low-risk) and 200 (high-risk) had 57% and 91% sensitivity. CONCLUSIONS Within a learning health system, we recalibrated post-PD drain removal thresholds to DFA1 ≤ 300 and DFA3 ≤ 100 for low-risk and DFA1 ≤ 100 and DFA3 ≤ 50 for high-risk patients. This methodology is generalizable to other centers for developing institution-specific criteria to optimize safe early drain removal.

ALTERNATIVE FISTULA RISK SCORE AND FIRST POSTOPERATIVE DAY DRAIN FLUID AMYLASE AS PREDICTORS OF PANCREATIC FISTULA AFTER PANCREATICODUODENECTOMY. ARQUIVOS BRASILEIROS DE CIRURGIA DIGESTIVA : ABCD = BRAZILIAN ARCHIVES OF DIGESTIVE SURGERY 2023; 36:e1728.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The high morbidity and mortality rates of pancreaticoduodenectomy are mainly associated with pancreaticojejunal anastomosis, the most fragile and susceptible to complications such as clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula. AIMS The alternative fistula risk score and the first postoperative day drain fluid amylase are predictors of the occurrence of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula. No consensus has been reached on which of the scores is a better predictor; moreover, their combined predictive power remains unclear. To the best of our knowledge, this association had not yet been studied. METHODS This study assessed the predictive effect of alternative fistula risk score and/or drain fluid amylase on clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula in a retrospective cohort of 58 patients following pancreaticoduodenectomy. The Shapiro-Wilk and Mann-Whitney tests were applied for assessing the distribution of the samples and for comparing the medians, respectively. The receiver operating characteristics curve and the confusion matrix were used to analyze the predictive models. RESULTS The alternative fistula risk score values were not statistically different between patients in the clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula and non- clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula groups (Mann-Whitney U test 59.5, p=0.12). The drain fluid amylase values were statistically different between clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula and non- clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula groups (Mann-Whitney U test 27, p=0.004). The alternative fistula risk score and drain fluid amylase were independently less predictive for clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula, compared to combined alternative fistula risk score + drain fluid amylase. CONCLUSION The combined model involving alternative fistula risk score >20% + drain fluid amylase=5,000 U/L was the most effective predictor of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula occurrence following pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Trends and Variations in Drain Use Following Pancreatoduodenectomy: Is Early Drain Removal Becoming More Common? World J Surg 2023; 47:1772-1779.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although previous studies have noted the potential benefit of early drain removal (EDR) after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD), there is a paucity of data on the timing of drain removal utilizing a national database that reflect the "real world" setting. Given the ongoing controversy related to PD drain use and management, we sought to define trends in drain use among a large national cohort, as well as identify factors associated with EDR following PD. METHODS The ACS NSQIP targeted pancreatectomy database was used to identify patients who underwent PD between 2014 and 2020. The trend in proportion of patients with EDR (removal ≤ POD3) as well as predictors of EDR were assessed. Risk-adjusted postoperative outcomes were evaluated by multivariable regression analysis. RESULTS Among 14,356 patients, 16.2% of patients (N = 2324) experienced EDR, and the proportion of patients with EDR increased by 68% over the study period (2014: 10.9% vs. 2020: 18.3%, p < 0.001). Higher drain fluid amylase on POD1-3 [LogWorth (LW) = 44.3], operative time (LW = 33.2), and use of minimally invasive surgery (LW = 14.0) were associated with EDR. Additionally, EDR was associated with decreased risk of overall and serious morbidity, PD-related morbidity (e.g., pancreatic fistula), reoperation, prolonged length of stay and readmission (all p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Routine drain placement remains a common practice among most surgeons. EDR following PD increased over time was associated with lower post-operative complications and shorter LOS. Despite evidence that EDR was safe and may even be associated with lower complications, only 1 in 6 patients were managed with EDR.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No consensus was reached with regard to the effect of EDR on postoperative outcomes after pancreatic surgery. The meta-analysis was designed to explore the efficacy and safety of early drain removal (EDR). METHODS Systematic literature search was performed. Data extraction and correction were performed by three researchers. For dichotomous and continuous outcomes, we calculated the pooled risk difference and mean difference with 95% confidence intervals, respectively. The heterogeneity of included studies was evaluated using Cochran's Q and I2 test. The stratified analyses of pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and distal pancreatectomy (DP) were performed. RESULTS A total of 10 studies including 3 RCTs and 7 non RCTs were included for meta-analysis, among which 1780 patients with EDR and 5613 patients with late drain removal (LDR) were enrolled. The meta-analysis of both all the available studies and studies only with selected low risk patients indicated that EDR group had significantly lower incidences of Grade B/C postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) and total complications for both PD and DP. However, no advantages of EDR were observed in the meta-analysis of the 3 RCTs. In addition, EDR was associated with a lower incidence of intra-abdominal infection after PD. While for DP, EDR group had decreased risk of delayed gastric emptying and re-operation, and shorter postoperative in-hospital stay. CONCLUSIONS The meta-analysis demonstrates that EDR is effective and safe for both PD and DP considering POPF and total complications, especially for patients with low concentration of postoperative drain fluid amylase.

Abstract
Whether early or late drain removal (EDR/LDR) is better for patients after pancreatic resection remains controversial. We aim to systematically evaluate the safety and efficacy of early or late drain removal in patients who undergo pancreatic resection. We searched seven databases from January 1, 2000, through September 2021, and included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or observational studies comparing EDR vs. LDR in patients after pancreatic resection. We separately pooled effect estimates across RCTs and observational studies. Finally, we included 4 RCTs with 711 patients and 8 nonRCTs with 7207 patients. Based on the pooled RCT data, compared to LDR, EDR reduced hospital length of stay (LOS) (RR: -2.59, 95% CI: -4.13 to -1.06) and hospital cost (RR: -1022.27, 95% CI: -1990.39 to -54.19). Based on the pooled nonRCT data, EDR may reduce the incidence of all complications (OR: 0.45, 95% CI: 0.32 to 0.63), pancreatic fistula (OR: 0.26, 95% CI: 0.15 to 0.45), wound infection (RR: 0.59, 95% CI: 0.06 to 5.45)), reoperation (OR: 0.62, 95% CI: 0.40 to 0.96) and hospital readmission (OR: 0.57, 95% CI: 0.47 to 0.69). There was an uncertain effect on mortality (OR from pooled nonRCTs: 1.02, 95% CI: 0.41 to 2.53) and delayed gastric emptying (RR from pooled RCTs: 0.76, 95% CI: 0.41 to 1.41). The findings of this meta-analysis suggest that early drain removal is associated with lower hospital cost, is safe and may reduce the incidence of complications compared to late drain removal in patients after pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Abstract
Objectives The effects of early drain removal (EDR) on postoperative complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) remains to be investigated. This single-center retrospective cohort study was designed to explore the safety of EDR after PD. Methods A total of 112 patients undergoing PD with drain fluid amylase (DFA) on postoperative day (POD) 1 and 3 <= 5000 were divided into EDR and late drain removal (LDR). Propensity Score Matching (PSM) was used. We compared postoperative outcomes between two groups and explore the risk factors of total complications using univariate and multiple logistic regression analyses. Results No statistical differences were found in primary outcomes, including Grade B/C postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) (Original cohort: 5.71% vs. 3.90%; P = 1.000; PSM cohort: 3.33% vs. 6.67%; P = 1.000), and total complications (Original cohort: 17.14% vs. 32.47%; P = 0.093; PSM cohort: 13.33% vs. 33.33%; P = 0.067). The EDR was associated with shorter in-hospital stay (Original cohort: 11 days vs. 15 days; P < 0.0001; PSM cohort: 11 days vs. 15 days; P < 0.0001). Conclusions EDR on POD 3 is safe for patients undergoing PD with low risk of POPF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) following elective distal pancreatectomy (DP) is poorly known. This study aimed to report incidence of DGE following DP, to identify its predisposing factors, and to assess its impact on hospital stay. METHODS Patients who had elective DP without additional organ or vascular resection (2012-2017) in two academic hospitals were included. Factors predisposing to DGE, defined according to the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery, were identified by multivariate analysis. A systematic review was performed to evaluate DGE incidence following elective DP. RESULTS 311 elective DPs were performed. Three perioperative mortalities (1.0%) were unrelated to DGE. DGE occurred in 31 (10.0%) patients (grade A = 21, grade B = 7, grade C = 3) with a median hospital stay of 16 (13-22) days versus 10 (7-14) without DGE (p < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, predisposing factors of DGE were age>75 years (OR = 4.32 [1.53-12.19]; p = 0.006), open approach (OR = 2.97 [1.1-8]; p = 0.031) and POPF grade B-C (OR = 2.54 [1.05-6.1]; p = 0.038). The systematic review identified 7 series including 876 patients with an overall 8.1% DGE incidence. CONCLUSION DGE complicates around 10% of elective DP. Laparoscopic approach and prevention of POPF should be encouraged to reduce DGE incidence.

Abstract
Pancreatic fistula is the most common and dreaded complication after pancreatic resection, responsible for high morbidity and mortality (2 to 30%). Prophylactic drainage of the operative site is usually put in place to decrease and/or detect postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) early. However, this policy is currently debated and the data from the literature are unclear. The goal of this update is to analyze the most recent evidence-based data with regard to prophylactic abdominal drainage after pancreatic resection (pancreatoduodenectomy [PD] or distal pancreatectomy [PD]). This systematic review of the literature between 1990 and 2020 sought to answer the following questions: should drainage of the operative site after pancreatectomy be routine or adapted to the risk of POPF? If a drainage is used, how long should it remain in the abdomen, what criteria should be used to decide to remove it, and what type of drainage should be preferred? Has the introduction of laparoscopy changed our practice? The literature seems to indicate that it is not possible to recommend the omission of routine drainage after pancreatic resection. By contrast, an approach based on the risk of POPF using the fistula risk score seems beneficial. When a drain is placed, early removal (within 5 days) seems feasible based on clinical, laboratory (C-reactive protein, leukocyte count, neutrophile/lymphocyte ratio, dosage and dynamic of amylase in the drains on D1, D3±D5) and radiological findings. This is in line with the development of enhanced recovery programs after pancreatic surgery. Finally, this literature review did not find any specific data relative to mini-invasive pancreatic surgery.

Systematic review and meta-analysis of surgical drain management after the diagnosis of postoperative pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy: draining-tract-targeted works better than standard management. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2020; 405:1219-1231. [PMID: 33104886 PMCID: PMC7686010 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-020-02005-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2020] [Accepted: 09/29/2020] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
Purpose Drains’ role after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is debated by proponents of no drain, draining selected cases, and early drain removal. The aim of the study was to assess the effect of “standard” and “draining-tract-targeted” management of abdominal drains still in situ after diagnosing a postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF). Methods PubMed and Scopus were searched for “pancreaticoduodenectomy or pancreatoduodenectomy or duodenopancreatectomy,” “Whipple,” “proximal pancreatectomy,” “pylorus-preserving pancreatectomy,” and “postoperative pancreatic fistula or POPF.”. Main outcomes included clinically relevant (CR) POPF, grade-C POPF, overall mortality, POPF-related mortality, and CR-POPF-related mortality. Secondary outcomes were incidence of radiological and/or endoscopic interventions, reoperations, and completion pancreatectomies. Results Overall, 12,089 studies were retrieved by the search of the English literature (01/01/1990–31/12/2018). Three hundred and twenty-six studies (90,321 patients) reporting ≥ 100 PDs and ≥ 10 PD/year were finally included into the study. Average incidences were obtained by averaging the incidence rates reported in the single articles. Pooled incidences were calculated by combining the number of events and the total number of patients considered in the various studies. These were then meta-analyzed using DerSimonian and Laird’s (1986) method. Pearson’s chi-squared test was used to compare pooled incidences between groups. Post hoc testing was used to see which groups differed. The meta-analyzed incidences were compared using a fixed effect for moderators. “Draining-tract-targeted” management showed a significant advantage over “standard” management in four clinically relevant outcomes out of eight according to pool analysis and in one of them according to meta-analysis. Conclusion Clinically, “draining-targeted” management of POPF should be preferred to “standard” management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM The efficacy and safety of early drain removal following distal pancreatectomy in elderly patients are unclear. We aimed to investigate the short-term surgical outcomes following early drain removal after distal pancreatectomy in elderly patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS Fifty-seven patients aged ≥70 years who underwent distal pancreatectomy at our Hospital were enrolled in the study. Data were retrospectively analyzed to evaluate the short-term surgical outcomes following early drain removal after distal pancreatectomy in elderly patients. RESULTS The incidence of pancreatic fistula following distal pancreatectomy in the early-removal group was significantly lower vs. the conventional group (p=0.022). Multivariate analysis revealed that early drain removal was an independent factor for reducing the risk of pancreatic fistula after distal pancreatectomy in elderly patients (p=0.042). CONCLUSION Early drain removal following distal pancreatectomy is an effective and safe surgical perioperative management procedure to prevent pancreatic fistula in elderly patients.
