Revealing the role of early peripancreatic bacterial contamination and Enterococcus faecalis in pancreatic fistula development after pancreaticoduodenectomy: Implications for useful antibiotic prophylaxis-An observational cohort study. Pancreatology 2024; 24:630-642. [PMID: 38508910 DOI: 10.1016/j.pan.2024.03.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2024] [Revised: 02/26/2024] [Accepted: 03/13/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Peripancreatic bacterial contamination (PBC) is a critical factor contributing to the development of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Controlling pathogenic bacteria is essential in preventing CR-POPF; however, the precise relationship between specific bacteria and CR-POPF remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between PBC and CR-POPF after PD, with a focus on identifying potentially causative bacteria. METHODS This prospective observational study enrolled 370 patients who underwent PD. Microbial cultures were routinely collected from peripancreatic drain fluid on postoperative days (PODs) 1, 3, and 6. Predictive factors for CR-POPF and the bacteria involved in PBC were investigated. RESULTS CR-POPF occurred in 86 (23.2%) patients. In multivariate analysis, PBC on POD1 (Odds ratio [OR] = 3.59; P = 0.005) was one of the main independent predictive factors for CR-POPF, while prophylactic use of antibiotics other than piperacillin/tazobactam independently influenced PBC on POD1 (OR = 2.95; P = 0.010). Notably, Enterococcus spp., particularly Enterococcus faecalis, were significantly isolated from PBC in patients with CR-POPF compared to those without CR-POPF on PODs 1 and 3 (P < 0.001), and they displayed high resistance to all cephalosporins. CONCLUSIONS Early PBC plays a pivotal role in the development of CR-POPF following PD. Prophylactic antibiotic administration, specifically targeting Enterococcus faecalis, may effectively mitigate early PBC and subsequently reduce the risk of CR-POPF. This research sheds light on the importance of bacterial control strategies in preventing CR-POPF after PD.

Clinical usefulness of routinely performed drain fluid cultures after pancreaticoduodenectomy. A new ally to predict patients' outcomes? Pancreatology 2024; 24:178-183. [PMID: 38171972 DOI: 10.1016/j.pan.2023.12.013] [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: 05/05/2023] [Revised: 12/28/2023] [Accepted: 12/29/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies showed that bacterial contamination of surgical drains was associated with higher morbidity and mortality following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). However, there is still no agreement on the routine use of fluid drainage cultures in the management of patients underwent PD. Therefore, we aimed to clarify the role of surgical drain bacterial contamination in predicting patients' postoperative course. METHOD Single-centre study including patients underwent PD at Humanitas Research Hospital (2010-2021). Preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative data were collected. Routinely performed fluid drain cultures on postoperative day (POD) 5 were analyzed and compared among patients throughout the cohort. RESULTS A total of 825 patients were analyzed. Bacterial contamination of surgical drains was observed in 420 (50.9 %) patients and it was found to be associated with a higher rate of B/C grade pancreatic fistula (POPF) (P < 0.001), Clavien-Dindo≥3 (P < 0.001), 30-day mortality (P = 0.011), wound infection (P < 0.001), relaparotomies (P = 0.003) and greater length of hospital stay (LOS) (P < 0.001). Also, E. coli surgical drain contamination was demonstrated to double the risk of B/C grade POPF development (OR = 1.628, 95 % IC = 1.009-2.625, P = 0.046). Finally, preoperative biliary drainage (OR = 2.474, 95 % IC = 1.855-3.298, P < 0.001), age ≥75 years old (OR = 1.492, 95 % IC = 1.077-2.067, P = 0.016) and isolated Roux-en-Y pancreaticojejunostomy (OR = 1.639, 95 % IC = 1.229-2.188, P < 0.001) were identified as risk factors for surgical drains bacterial contamination. CONCLUSION Bacterial contamination of surgical drains predicts the development of B/C grade POPF and other major complications after PD. Therefore, we suggest the routine use of fluid drain cultures following PD.

Abstract
Importance Postpancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH) due to postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a life-threatening complication after pancreatoduodenectomy. However, there is no prediction tool for early identification of patients at high risk of late PPH. Objective To develop and validate a prediction model for PPH. Design, Setting, and Participants This retrospective prognostic study included consecutive patients with clinically relevant POPF who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy from January 1, 2009, to May 20, 2023, at the University Hospital Mannheim (derivation cohort), and from January 1, 2012, to May 31, 2022, at the University Hospital Dresden (validation cohort). Data analysis was performed from May 30 to July 29, 2023. Exposure Clinical and radiologic features of PPH. Main Outcomes and Measures Accuracy of a predictive risk score of PPH. A multivariate prediction model-the hemorrhage risk score (HRS)-was established in the derivation cohort (n = 139) and validated in the validation cohort (n = 154). Results A total of 293 patients (187 [64%] men; median age, 69 [IQR, 60-76] years) were included. The HRS comprised 4 variables with associations: sentinel bleeding (odds ratio [OR], 35.10; 95% CI, 5.58-221.00; P < .001), drain fluid culture positive for Candida species (OR, 14.40; 95% CI, 2.24-92.20; P < .001), and radiologic proof of rim enhancement of (OR, 12.00; 95% CI, 2.08-69.50; P = .006) or gas within (OR, 12.10; 95% CI, 2.22-65.50; P = .004) a peripancreatic fluid collection. Two risk categories were identified with patients at low risk (0-1 points) and high risk (≥2 points) to develop PPH. Patients with PPH were predicted accurately in the derivation cohort (C index, 0.97) and validation cohort (C index 0.83). The need for more invasive PPH management (74% vs 34%; P < .001) and severe complications (49% vs 23%; P < .001) were more frequent in high-risk patients compared with low-risk patients. Conclusions and Relevance In this retrospective prognostic study, a robust prediction model for PPH was developed and validated. This tool may facilitate early identification of patients at high risk for PPH.

Abstract
PURPOSE Candida spp. cause opportunistic infections in conditions of immunodeficiency. Here, we investigated the relationship between colonization of the gastric juice by Candida spp. and surgical site infection (SSI) in hepatectomy. METHODS Consecutive hepatectomy cases between November 2019 and April 2021 were enrolled. Gastric juice samples (collected intraoperatively through a nasogastric tube) were cultured. We compared factors related to patient background, blood test findings, surgical findings, and postoperative complications between the Candida + group (positive for colonization of the gastric juice by Candida spp.) and the Candida - group (negative). In addition, we identified the factors that contribute to SSI. RESULTS There were 29 and 71 patients in the Candida + and Candida - groups, respectively. The Candida + group was significantly older (average age: Candida + 74 years vs. Candida - 69 years; p = 0.02) and contained more patients negative for the hepatitis B and C virus (Candida + 93% vs. Candida - 69%; p = 0.02). SSI was significantly more common in the Candida + group (Candida + 31% vs. Candida - 9%; p = 0.01). Postoperative bile leakage and colonization of the gastric juice by Candida spp. were independent predictors of SSI. CONCLUSION Colonization of the gastric juice by Candida spp. is a risk factor for SSI after hepatectomy.

Abstract
Clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) has continued to compromise patient recovery post-pancreatectomy despite decades of research seeking to improve risk prediction and diagnosis. The current diagnostic criteria for CR-POPF requires elevated drain fluid amylase to present alongside POPF-related complications including infection, haemorrhage and organ failure. These worrying sequelae necessitate earlier and easily obtainable biomarkers capable of reflecting evolving CR-POPF. Drain fluid has recently emerged as a promising source of biomarkers as it is derived from the pancreas and hence, capable of reflecting its postoperative condition. The present review aims to summarise the current knowledge of CR-POPF drain fluid biomarkers and identify gaps in the field to invigorate future research in this critical area of clinical need. These findings may provide robust diagnostic alternatives for CR-POPF and hence, to clarify their clinical utility require further reports detailing their diagnostic and/or predictive accuracy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Optimizing treatments balancing prognosis and therapeutic invasiveness is important in the management of pancreatic cancer (PC) owing to global ageing. This study aimed to verify the different utility of biomarkers by patients' age. MATERIALS & METHODS: This is a single-center, retrospective cohort analysis involving 160 patients who undertook pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) for PC. After comparing clinicopathological factors and survival after PD between aged (≥70 y/o) and young (<70 y/o) patients, we compared neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), controlling nutrition (CONUT) score, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19-9 as well as clinicopathological factors between long and short survivors in each group. We also performed Kaplan-Meyer analysis between patients stratified by biomarkers. RESULTS: Overall survival (OS) was significantly worse in aged patients (p = 0.002). In aged patients, CEA was significantly higher in short survivors. In young patients, CONUT score and CA19-9 were higher in short survivors. Kaplan-Meyer analysis showed that NLR and CEA stratified OS in aged patients, whereas CONUT score and CA19-9 could stratify OS in young patients. CONCLUSION: Our current results suggest that these biomarkers had different impact on survivals according to the patients' age.

Abstract
The microbiota impact on human diseases is well-known, and a growing body of literature is providing evidence about the complex interplay between microbiota-immune system-human physiology/pathology, including cancers. Together with the defined risk factors (e.g., smoke habits, diet, diabetes, and obesity), the oral, gut, biliary, and intrapancreatic microbiota contribute to pancreatic cancer development through different pathways including the interaction with the immune system. Unfortunately, a great majority of the pancreatic cancer patients received a diagnosis in advanced stages not amenable to be radically treated and potentially cured. Given the poor pancreatic cancer prognosis, complete knowledge of these complicated relationships could help researchers better understand the disease pathogenesis and thus provide early potential non-invasive biomarkers, new therapeutic targets, and tools for risk stratification that might result in greater therapeutic possibilities and eventually in a better and longer patient survival.

Abstract
To investigate the risk factors and clinical impacts of the occurrence of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from drainage fluid in patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Clinicopathological data of all patients who underwent PD from January 2018 to March 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. The univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify independent risk factors for the occurrence of K. pneumoniae in drainage fluid and its clinical impacts on postoperative complications. Of the included 284 patients, 49 (17.2%) patients isolated K. pneumoniae in drain samples after PD. Preoperative biliary drainage (OR = 1.962, p = 0.037) independently predicted the contamination of K. pneumoniae in drain samples after PD. The rate of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF), major complications (Clavien–Dindo Grade ≥ III), post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH), organ/space surgical site infection (SSI), and biliary leakage (BL) were significantly higher in K. pneumoniae positive group both in the univariate and multivariate analyses. Preventive measures and treatments for combating K. pneumoniae contamination may be beneficial to the perioperative outcomes of patients after PD.

Pancreatology 2021; 21:263-268.

Abstract
BACKGROUND /Objectives: This study aimed to elucidate the efficacy of CT findings and perioperative characteristics to predict post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH): a critical complication after pancreaticoduodenectomy. METHODS The records of 590 consecutive patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy at three institutes between 2012 and 2018 were included. The presence of a vascular wall abnormality or ascites with high density (vascular abnormality) on postoperative day (POD) 5-10 contrast-enhanced CT (early CT), perioperative characteristics, and any PPH or pseudoaneurysm formation (PPH events) were analyzed through a multivariate analysis. RESULTS PPH events occurred in 48 out of 590 patients (8%). The vascular abnormality on early CT and the C-reactive protein (CRP) value on POD 3 were independent risk factors for PPH events after POD5 (vascular abnormality: odds ratio 6.42, p = 0.001; CRP on POD 3: odds ratio 1.17, p = 0.016). The sensitivity of vascular abnormality for PPH events was 24% (7/29), and the positive predictive value was 30% (7/23). The combination of vascular abnormality and a high CRP value (≥15.5 mg/dL) on postoperative day 3 had a higher positive predictive value of 64% (7/11) than the vascular abnormality alone. None of the seven PPH events that occurred more than one month after surgery were foreseen via early CT. CONCLUSION The combination of vascular abnormality and high CRP value was associated with increasing risk of PPH events after pancreaticoduodenectomy, but the low sensitivity of early CT must be noted as an important shortcoming. The normal findings on early CT could not eliminate the risk of late PPH.

Systematic review and meta-analysis of factors associated with post-operative pancreatic fistula following pancreatoduodenectomy. ANZ J Surg 2020; 91:810-821. [PMID: 33135873 DOI: 10.1111/ans.16408] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2020] [Revised: 10/05/2020] [Accepted: 10/11/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Many studies have explored factors relating to post-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF); however, the original definition (All-POPF) was revised to include only 'clinically relevant' (CR) POPF. This study identified variables associated with the two International Study Group on Pancreatic Surgery definitions to identify which variables are more strongly associated with CR-POPF. METHODS A systematic review identified all studies reporting risk factors for POPF (using both International Study Group on Pancreatic Fistula definitions) following pancreatoduodenectomy. The primary outcome was factors associated with CR-POPF. Meta-analyses (random effects models) of pre-, intra- and post-operative factors associated with POPF in more than two studies were included. RESULTS Among 52 774 patients All-POPF (n = 69 studies) and CR-POPF (n = 53 studies) affected 27% (95% confidence interval (CI95% ) 23-30) and 19% (CI95% 17-22), respectively. Of the 176 factors, 24 and 17 were associated with All- and CR-POPF, respectively. Absence of pre-operative pancreatitis, presence of renal disease, no pre-operative neoadjuvant therapy, use of post-operative somatostatin analogues, absence of associated venous or arterial resection were associated with CR-POPF but not All-POPF. CONCLUSION In conclusion this study demonstrates wide variation in reported rates of POPF and that several risk factors associated with CR-POPF are not used within risk prediction models. Data from this study can be used to shape future studies, research and audit across ethnic and geographic boundaries in POPF following pancreatoduodenectomy.

Abstract
The present study aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of angiography and coil embolization for pseudoaneurysm post-pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). A total of 17 patients with gastrointestinal or abdominal hemorrhage after PD were included in the present study. Angiography was performed on the celiac artery, common hepatic artery, splenic artery, gastroduodenal artery and superior mesenteric artery to determine the size of the pseudoaneurysm, the parent artery and its collateral branches. A variety of embolization techniques have been applied to embolize pseudoaneurysm, including the sac packing technique, proximal embolization, exclusion technique and sandwich technique. Different techniques with coils were used for embolization and the clinical effects of embolization were analyzed. A total of 18 pseudoaneurysms were identified in 17 patients. In 2 patients, severe technical complications occurred, including migration of the coil and rupture of pseudoaneurysm, and one of them died, which may have been associated with this complication. No serious clinical complications were observed in the other patients. A total of 7 patients had mild clinical complications, including mild abdominal and dorsal pain, which were alleviated after symptomatic management. A total of 15 patients with definite pseudoaneurysm were successfully embolized without re-bleeding and complications. The clinical success rate was 94.1% (16/17). In conclusion, a variety of embolization techniques may be applied for the treatment of pseudoaneurysm after PD, which have high technical and clinical success rates and small trauma. It is recommended in emergency situations, but care should be taken to avoid serious technical complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed arterial hemorrhage after pancreaticoduodenectomy is a life-threatening complication. There are no reports about infected aneurysms of the superior mesenteric artery after pancreaticoduodenectomy without clinically relevant pancreatic fistula. CASE PRESENTATION A 78-year-old woman with borderline resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma involving the superior mesenteric arterial nerve plexus underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy with en bloc resection of the superior mesenteric vein and the superior mesenteric arterial nerve plexus after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. On postoperative day 14, she had bacteremia and sudden fever with chills. During the postoperative course, macroscopic abscesses or distinct infectious signs, including pancreatic fistula or bile fistula, were not present, but pylephlebitis was observed. After the antimicrobial treatment course, the patient was discharged. After 17 days, she was hospitalized for melena. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed a ruptured aneurysm of the superior mesenteric artery into the small intestine without a major intraabdominal abscess. E. coli was isolated from blood cultures. The patient was diagnosed with a ruptured infected aneurysm of the superior mesenteric artery. She was treated successfully with a covered stent by the cardiology team. There was no recurrence of bleeding at the 4-month follow-up, and the stent was patent in all subsequent computed tomography scans. CONCLUSIONS Endovascular repair using a covered stent was effective in palliating acute bleeding from an infected aneurysm of the superior mesenteric artery.

Abstract
(1) Background: preoperative biliary drainage before pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is associated with bacterial biliary contamination (>85%) and a significant increase in global and infectious complications. In view of the lack of published data, the aim of our study was to investigate the impact of fungal biliary contamination after biliary drainage on the complication rate after PD. (2) Methods: a multicentric retrospective study that included 224 patients who underwent PD after biliary drainage with intraoperative biliary culture. (3) Results: the global rate of positive intraoperative biliary sample was 92%. Respectively, the global rate of biliary bacterial contamination and the rate of fungal contamination were 75% and 25%, making it possible to identify two subgroups: bacterial contamination only (B+, n = 154), and bacterial and fungal contamination (BF+, n = 52). An extended duration of preoperative drainage (62 vs. 49 days; p = 0.08) increased the risk of fungal contamination. The overall and infectious complication rates were not different between the two groups. In the event of postoperative infectious or surgical complications, the infectious samples taken did not reveal more fungal infections in the BF+ group. (4) Conclusions: fungal biliary contamination, although frequent, does not seem to increase the rate of global and infectious complications after PD, preceded by preoperative biliary drainage.

New insight into the association between bile infection and clinically relevant pancreatic fistula in patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy. JOURNAL OF HEPATO-BILIARY-PANCREATIC SCIENCES 2020; 27:992-1001. [PMID: 32506812 DOI: 10.1002/jhbp.781] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2020] [Revised: 04/30/2020] [Accepted: 05/21/2020] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between bacterial infection and clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) has not been fully elucidated. METHODS Microbiological data for intraoperative bile culture (BC) and drain culture on postoperative day 4 (DC) were collected. The study population was classified into the following three groups: P1 (positive BC and DC), P2 (positive BC and negative DC), and N (negative BC). A total of 209 patients (P1: 38, P2: 72, and N: 99) who underwent PD between May 2013 and May 2018 met the inclusion criteria of the study. RESULTS The rate of CR-POPF was significantly higher in the P1 group (34.2%) than in the P2 (12.5%; P = .007) and N groups (14.1%; P = .008). Between P1 and P2 groups, a significant difference was observed in the proportion of Enterococcus faecalis grown in BC (42.1% vs 4.2%; P < .001). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the presence of E faecalis in bile was independently associated with CR-POPF. CONCLUSIONS The detection of both bile and postoperative abdominal fluid infections can be more accurate in predicting CR-POPF. Furthermore, the presence of E faecalis in bile may serve as a novel surrogate marker for CR-POPF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent management after pancreatoduodenectomy recommends either omission of prophylactic drainage or early removal. This potentially makes the diagnosis of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) difficult because the diagnosis is based on the amylase value of drain effluent. The aim of this study was to determine if severe POPF could be predicted independent of drainage information. METHODS Records of consecutive patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy between 2012 and 2018 were included for further analysis. The presence of a peripancreatic collection (PC) on routine postoperative (day7) computed tomography (early CT) and perioperative characteristics were analyzed. RESULTS PC appeared in 82/211 patients (39%) and was associated with clinically relevant POPF (p < 0.001). The C-reactive protein (CRP) on postoperative day5 was a good predictor of severe POPF (needing interventional therapy or Grade C) (area under the receiver operating characteristics curve, 0.802; 95% confidence interval, 0.702-0.875). Presence of a PC and a high CRP value were independent risk factors for severe POPF following multivariate analysis. The combination of CRP<5.0 mg/dL on postoperative day 5 and the absence of a PC had 98% negative predictive value. CONCLUSION The combination of CRP measurement and PC evaluation by early CT was useful in predicting severe POPF after pancreatoduodenectomy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Distal pancreatectomy (DP) remains associated with significant morbidity, but little data is available about the clinical significance of drain contamination. We explored the incidence, risk factors, and association with surgical outcomes of positive drainage culture (PDC) after DP. In addition, the predictive capacity of early PDC for postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) was evaluated. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed our prospectively collected database of patients who underwent DP between January 2005 and December 2015. Surveillance drainage cultures for microorganisms were conducted until drain removal or positive culture. The relationships between clinical variables and PDC were examined. RESULTS Of 480 consecutive cases who underwent DP, 176 (36.7%) had PDC. One hundred twelve patients (23.3%) developed POPF according to the 2016 ISGPS definition, with the 90-day mortality rate of 0.2%. Staphylococcus spp. was the most frequent isolate. Thirty-eight (21.6%) patients had PDC within 3 days after surgery, and 129 (73.3%) within the first 7 days of operation. Body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m2 and massive intraoperative blood loss were independent predictors for PDC. PDC had a negative impact on surgical outcomes, including POPF. Early PDC was identified as a newly independent risk factor for POPF. Compared with other microorganisms, those contaminated with Staphylococcus and Klebsiella had higher incidences of POPF. CONCLUSIONS PDC occurs commonly after DP and plays a critical role in the development of surgical morbidities including POPF. Extreme caution is warranted in patients involving contamination with specific types of microorganisms.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Visceral obesity is one of the risk factors for clinically relevant pancreatic fistula after pancreatic resection. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of intraperitoneal lipolysis on postoperative pancreatic fistula.
Methods
The degree of intraperitoneal lipolysis was investigated by measuring the free fatty acid concentration in drain discharge in patients after pancreatic resection. An experimental pancreatic fistula model was prepared by pancreatic transection, and the impact of intraperitoneal lipolysis was evaluated by intraperitoneal administration of triolein (triglyceride) with, or without orlistat (lipase inhibitor).
Results
Thirty-three patients were included in the analysis. The free fatty acid concentration in drain discharge on postoperative day 1 was significantly associated with the development of a clinically relevant pancreatic fistula (P = 0·004). A higher free fatty acid concentration in drain discharge was associated with more visceral adipose tissue (P = 0·009). In the experimental model that included 98 rats, intraperitoneal lipolysis caused an increased amount of pancreatic juice leakage and multiple organ dysfunction. Intraperitoneal administration of a lipase inhibitor reduced lipolysis and prevented deterioration of the fistula.
Conclusion
Intraperitoneal lipolysis significantly exacerbates pancreatic fistula after pancreatic resection. Inhibition of lipolysis by intraperitoneal administration of a lipase inhibitor could be a promising therapy to reduce clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The mechanism of infected postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is undefined. Drain amylase has been used to predict POPF, whereas little data are available about the value of drain fluid culture. The aim was to investigate the incidence, risk factors and association with surgical outcomes of positive drainage culture (PDC) after PD. METHODS A single-center retrospective analysis was conducted of prospectively collected data from patients who underwent PD between January 2005 and December 2015. Drain fluid samples were obtained for microbiological analysis after surgery. Risk factors for PDC were evaluated, and its influence on surgical outcomes was explored. RESULTS Of 768 patients, 261 (34%) had PDC during the postoperative period. Among them, a total of 434 isolates were yielded. One hundred and seven (24.7%) were Gram-positive, 283 (65.2%) Gram-negative, and 44 (10.1%) fungi. Multivariate analysis revealed that body mass index (BMI) ≥25 kg/m2 , preoperative chemoradiation and intra-operative red blood cell transfusion were independent risk factors for PDC. PDC was associated with higher incidences of complications including POPF, major complications and reoperation, but with no correlation between the day of PDC and complications. BMI ≥25 kg/m2 , early PDC (≤3 days), main pancreatic duct <3 mm, and soft pancreas were revealed as independent predictors for POPF. There was a correlation between type of microorganisms and complications. CONCLUSION Considering the correlation between PDC and postoperative complications, preventive measures are crucial to improve outcomes after PD. Whether antibiotic treatment for early PDC will alter the clinical course of POPF needs further evaluation.

Nutritional support and therapy in pancreatic surgery: A position paper of the International Study Group on Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS). Surgery 2018; 164:1035-1048.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal nutritional therapy in the field of pancreatic surgery is still debated. METHODS An international panel of recognized pancreatic surgeons and pancreatologists decided that the topic of nutritional support was of importance in pancreatic surgery. Thus, they reviewed the best contemporary literature and worked to develop a position paper to provide evidence supporting the integration of appropriate nutritional support into the overall management of patients undergoing pancreatic resection. Strength of recommendation and quality of evidence were based on the approach of the grading of recommendations assessment, development and evaluation Working Group. RESULTS The measurement of nutritional status should be part of routine preoperative assessment because malnutrition is a recognized risk factor for surgery-related complications. In addition to patient's weight loss and body mass index, measurement of sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity should be considered in the preoperative evaluation because they are strong predictors of poor short-term and long-term outcomes. The available data do not show any definitive nutritional advantages for one specific type of gastrointestinal reconstruction technique after pancreatoduodenectomy over the others. Postoperative early resumption of oral intake is safe and should be encouraged within enhanced recovery protocols, but in the case of severe postoperative complications or poor tolerance of oral food after the operation, supplementary artificial nutrition should be started at once. At present, there is not enough evidence to show the benefit of avoiding oral intake in clinically stable patients who are complicated by a clinically irrelevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (a so-called biochemical leak), while special caution should be given to feeding patients with clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula orally. When an artificial nutritional support is needed, enteral nutrition is preferred whenever possible over parenteral nutrition. After the operation, regardless of the type of pancreatic resection or technique of reconstruction, patients should be monitored carefully to assess for the presence of endocrine and exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. Although fecal elastase-1 is the most readily available clinical test for detection of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency, its sensitivity and specificity are low. Pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy should be initiated routinely after pancreatoduodenectomy and in patients with locally advanced disease and continued for at least 6 months after surgery, because untreated pancreatic exocrine insufficiency may result in severe nutritional derangement. CONCLUSION The importance of this position paper is the consensus reached on the topic. Concentrating on nutritional support and therapy is of utmost value in pancreatic surgery for both short- and long-term outcomes.
