Assessing Intra-abdominal status for clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula based on postoperative fluid collection and drain amylase levels after distal pancreatectomy. Ann Gastroenterol Surg 2024; 8:321-331. [PMID: 38455495 PMCID: PMC10914692 DOI: 10.1002/ags3.12741] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2023] [Revised: 08/26/2023] [Accepted: 09/05/2023] [Indexed: 03/09/2024] Open
Abstract
Aim The aim of this study was to evaluate the intra-abdominal status related to postoperative pancreatic fistula by combining postoperative fluid collection and drain amylase levels. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the data of 203 patients who underwent distal pancreatectomy and classified their postoperative abdominal status into four groups based on postoperative fluid collection size and drain amylase levels. We also evaluated the incidence of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula in each group according to C-reactive protein values. Results The incidence of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula in the entire cohort (n = 203) was 28.1%. Multivariate analysis revealed that postoperative fluid collection, drain amylase levels, and C-reactive protein levels are considerable risk factors for clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula. In the subgroup with large postoperative fluid collection and high drain amylase levels, 65.9% of patients developed clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula. However, no significant difference was observed in C-reactive protein levels between patients with clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula and those without it. In contrast, in the subgroup with a large postoperative fluid collection size or a high amylase level alone, a significant difference was observed in C-reactive protein values between the patients with clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula and those without it. Conclusion Postoperative fluid collection status and the C-reactive protein value provide a more precise assessment of intra=abdominal status related to postoperative pancreatic fistula after distal pancreatectomy. This detailed analysis may be a clinically reasonable approach to individual drain management.

The role of clinically relevant intra-abdominal collections after pancreaticoduodenectomy : Clinical impact and predictors. A retrospective analysis from a European tertiary centre. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2023; 409:21. [PMID: 38151676 PMCID: PMC10752846 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-023-03200-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2023] [Accepted: 12/05/2023] [Indexed: 12/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND There is controversial evidence regarding the impact of clinically relevant postoperative intra-abdominal collections (CR-IC) on the clinical course after pancreaticoduodenectomy. C-reactive Protein (CRP) has been validated as a predictor of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF). Still, its role in predicting CR-IC has not been studied. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent PD at a tertiary hospital between October 2012 and October 2017. The incidence of CR-IC, clinically relevant POPF and other complications, as well as mortality and length of hospitalisation, was retrieved. The impact of CR-IR on mortality and major complications was analysed. The serum CRP levels were retrieved on the third and fifth postoperative days (POD3 and POD5), followed by an analysis of sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve to predict CR-IC using CRP. RESULTS One hundred forty patients were enrolled following inclusion and exclusion criteria. The mean age was 66.5 years (15-83). The incidence of CR-IC was 33.7% (47), and CR-POPF was 24.3%. Pancreatic duct diameter ≤ 4 mm was identified as a risk factor related to CR-IC occurrence. The group of patients who developed CR-IC after PD exhibited a higher rate of complications Clavien-Dindo ≥ III compared to patients without CR-IC (40.4% vs 7.5%, p < 0.001), as well as other events such as admission to the intensive care unit (25.5% vs 4.3%, p < 0.001), the incidence of CR-POPF (66% vs 3.2%, p < 0.001), prolonged hospital stay (32 vs 13 days, p < 0.001), postoperative haemorrhage (23.4 vs 5.4%, p = 0.002), and delayed gastric empty (38.8% vs 11.8%, p < 0.001) respectively. Logistic regression analysis identified CR-IC related to POPF as a risk factor for Clavien-Dindo > III: OR = 10.6 (95% CI: 3.90-28.7). No differences in mortality were reported between the CR-IC group and non-CR-IC group. CRP at postoperative day 3 (POD3) > 17.55 mg/dl and CRP at postoperative day 5 (POD5) > 13.46 mg/dl were predictors of CR-IC (AUC: 0.731 and AUC:0.821, respectively). CONCLUSIONS CR-IC has a significant impact after pancreaticoduodenectomy and is associated with a higher incidence of Clavien-Dindo ≥ III complications. Additionally, CRP levels at POD3 and POD5 play a role in predicting CR-IC. Prospective studies are essential to explore strategies for mitigating the occurrence of CR-IC after PD.

A novel prediction model of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy using only preoperative markers. BMC Surg 2023; 23:310. [PMID: 37828597 PMCID: PMC10571374 DOI: 10.1186/s12893-023-02213-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2023] [Accepted: 10/03/2023] [Indexed: 10/14/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Since clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) can cause intra-abdominal hemorrhage and abscesses, leading to surgery-related deaths after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), its preoperative prediction is important to develop strategies for surgical procedures and perioperative management. This study aimed to establish a novel prediction model for CR-POPF using preoperative markers. METHODS On a training set of 180 patients who underwent PD at the Yamaguchi University Hospital, a combination of CR-POPF predictors were explored using the leave-one-out method with a unique discrete Bayes classifier. This predictive model was confirmed using a validation set of 366 patients who underwent PD at the Osaka University Hospital. RESULTS In the training set, CR-POPF occurred in 60 (33%) of 180 patients and 130 (36%) of 366 patients in the validation set using selected markers. In patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), the main pancreatic duct (MPD) index showed the highest prognostic performance and could differentiate CR-POPF with 87% sensitivity and 81% specificity among 84 patients in the training set. In the validation set, the sensitivity and specificity of the MPD index-based model for 130 PDAC samples were 93% and 87%, respectively. In patients with non-PDAC, the MPD index/body mass index (BMI) combination showed the highest prognostic performance and could differentiate CR-POPF with 84% sensitivity and 57% specificity among 96 patients in the training set. In the validation set, the sensitivity and specificity of the MPD index/BMI-based model for 236 non-PDAC samples were 85% and 53%, respectively. CONCLUSION We developed a novel prediction model for pancreatic fistulas after PD using only preoperative markers. The MPD index and MPD index/BMI combination will be useful for CR-POPF assessment in PDAC and non-PDAC samples, respectively.

Pancreatology 2023; 23:456-464. [PMID: 37258370 DOI: 10.1016/j.pan.2023.05.007] [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: 01/13/2023] [Revised: 04/28/2023] [Accepted: 05/17/2023] [Indexed: 06/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between perioperative fluid management and complications in pancreatoduodenectomy patients remains controversial. We explored the association between fluid management and radiological signs of complications. METHODS We examined pancreatoduodenectomy patients operated between July 2014 and December 2015 (n = 125) and between January 2017 and June 2018 (n = 124). The first cohort received intraoperative fluid management according to a goal-directed strategy and the second cohort was treated conventionally. We analyzed fluid administration, edema visible in computed tomography (CT) scans seven days postoperatively, and radiological signs of complications occurring up to 30 days. We performed multivariable logistic regression analyses to identify risk factors for fluid collections. RESULTS No statistically significant difference in postoperative edema via CT scans emerged between the fluid management groups. However, the intraperitoneal space expanded in patients with severe Clavien-Dindo complications compared with patients experiencing mild or no complications (19.1% (IQR 10.4-40.5) vs 2.5% (IQR -7.9-16.6), p = 0.004). Fluid collections were less frequent in the goal-directed group than in the conventional fluid management group (16.8% vs 34.7%, p = 0.001). Risk factors for fluid collections included main pancreatic duct size ≤3 mm, less intraoperative fluid volume accompanying conventional fluid management, a lower postoperative urine output, and postoperative congestive heart failure. The goal-directed group received more intraoperative fluids than the conventional fluid management group and postoperative urine output was higher in the goal-directed group on postoperative days 1-3. CONCLUSIONS Optimization of intraoperative fluid management through target-controlled strategies and early diuresis were associated with a lower frequency of fluid collections in postoperative CT.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients who suffer a serious complication of pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) may have their adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) delayed or omitted as a result. We aimed to investigate whether PD complications affected AC rates. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis of all PD patients with histologically-confirmed pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (2006-2015) was performed; 90-day mortality patients were excluded. Patients who commenced AC were compared to those who did not (morbidity rates and survival) and patients who developed selected postoperative complications were compared to those who did not (AC rates and survival). RESULTS 157 patients were included and 90-day mortality was 3.8%. Of the remaining patients, 102 (68.5%) received AC (AC data unavailable for two patients). Survival was longer in the AC group (p = 0.004). AC patients had less frequently experienced a postoperative chest infection (8.82% vs 34.0%, p = 0.0003) or a postoperative complication which was Clavien-Dindo (CD) grade ≥ II (29.4% vs 57.4%, p = 0.0019) or ≥ III (6.86% vs 21.3%, p = 0.023). Patients who experienced a postoperative chest infection (36.0% vs 75.0%, p = 0.0003) or a postoperative complication which was CD grade ≥ II (48.9% vs 73.1%, p = 0.0099) or ≥ III (29.4% vs 70.3%, p = 0.0018) less frequently commenced AC. CONCLUSION Patients who received AC had less frequently experienced a serious postoperative complication. Efforts should be made to preoperatively identify those who are high-risk for a serious complication as this cohort may benefit from neoadjuvant therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Perianastomotic fluid collection (PFC) is one of the postoperative complications of pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). However, no studies have investigated the clinical significance of PFC location and volume during the early postoperative period. This study aimed to assess the association between PFC during the early postoperative period and postoperative complications. METHODS Medical records of 148 patients who had undergone PD and computed tomography (CT) on postoperative day 4 were retrospectively reviewed. The location-superior, inferior, ventral, dorsal, or splenic hilum-and PFC index, which is the estimated volume of fluid collection, were determined using CT. The associations between postoperative complication and the presence of PFC, and PFC index according to the location, were assessed. RESULTS The PFC group included 102 patients (69%). Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) and organ/space surgical site infection (SSI) were more frequent in the PFC group (42% vs 9%, p < 0.001 and 29% vs 11%, p = 0.020, respectively). Additionally, the PFC index was larger in patients who developed POPF, organ/space SSI, or pseudoaneurysm (81 cm3 vs 19 cm3, p < 0.001; 75 cm3 vs 30 cm3, p = 0.001; and 185 cm3 vs 31 cm3, p < 0.001, respectively). Furthermore, superior and ventral PFCs were associated with pseudoaneurysm (11% vs 0%, p = 0.006 and 14% vs 1%, p = 0.002, respectively), whereas inferior and dorsal PFCs were associated with deep incisional SSI (9% vs 0%, p = 0.027 and 8% vs 1%, p = 0.034, respectively). CONCLUSION The PFC location during the early postoperative period is associated with postoperative complications. Our findings may help determine the optimal location of prophylactic drains.
