Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is one of the most common complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). DGE represents impaired gastric motility without significant mechanical obstruction and is associated with an increased length of hospital stay, increased healthcare costs, and a high readmission rate. We reviewed published studies on various technical modifications to reduce the incidence of DGE. DATA SOURCES Studies were identified by searching PubMed for relevant articles published up to December 2022. The following search terms were used: "pancreaticoduodenectomy", "pancreaticojejunostomy", "pancreaticogastrostomy", "gastric emptying", "gastroparesis" and "postoperative complications". The search was limited to English publications. Additional articles were identified by a manual search of references from key articles. RESULTS In recent years, various surgical procedures and techniques have been explored to reduce the incidence of DGE. Pyloric resection, Billroth II reconstruction, Braun's enteroenterostomy, and antecolic reconstruction may be associated with a decreased incidence of DGE, but more high-powered studies are needed in the future. Neither laparoscopic nor robotic surgery has demonstrated superiority in preventing DGE, and the use of staplers is controversial regarding whether they can reduce the incidence of DGE. CONCLUSIONS Despite many innovations in surgical techniques, there is no surgical procedure that is superior to others to reduce DGE. Further larger prospective randomized studies are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) commonly occurs after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Risk factors for DGE have been reported in open PD but are rarely reported in laparoscopic PD (LPD). This study was designed to evaluate the perioperative risk factors for DGE and secondary DGE after LPD in a single center. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included patients who underwent LPD between October 2014 and April 2023. Demographic data, preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative data were collected. The risk factors for DGE and secondary DGE were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 827 consecutive patients underwent LPD. One hundred and forty-two patients (17.2%) developed DGE of any type. Sixty-five patients (7.9%) had type A, 62 (7.5%) had type B, and the remaining 15 (1.8%) had type C DGE. Preoperative biliary drainage (p = 0.032), blood loss (p = 0.014), and 90-day any major complication with Dindo-Clavien score ≥ III (p < 0.001) were independent significant risk factors for DGE. Seventy-six (53.5%) patients were diagnosed with primary DGE, whereas 66 (46.5%) patients had DGE secondary to concomitant complications. Higher body mass index, soft pancreatic texture, and perioperative transfusion were independent risk factors for secondary DGE. Hospital stay and drainage tube removal time were significantly longer in the DGE and secondary DGE groups. CONCLUSION Identifying patients at an increased risk of DGE and secondary DGE can be used to intervene earlier, avoid potential risk factors, and make more informed clinical decisions to shorten the duration of perioperative management.

Abstract
PURPOSE Quality of life (QoL) is temporarily compromised after pancreatic surgery, but no evidence for a negative impact of postoperative complications on QoL has been provided thus far. Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is one of the most common complications after pancreatic surgery and is associated with a high level of distress. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyse the influence of DGE on QoL. METHODS This single-centre retrospective study analysed QoL after partial duodenopancreatectomy (PD) via the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer core questionnaire (QLQ-C30). The QoL of patients with and without postoperative DGE was compared. RESULTS Between 2010 and 2022, 251 patients were included, 85 of whom developed DGE (34%). Within the first postoperative year, compared to patients without DGE, those with DGE had a significantly reduced QoL, by 9.0 points (95% CI: -13.0 to -5.1, p < 0.001). Specifically, physical and psychosocial functioning (p = 0.020) decreased significantly, and patients with DGE suffered significantly more from fatigue (p = 0.010) and appetite loss (p = 0.017) than patients without DGE. After the first postoperative year, there were no significant differences in QoL or symptom scores between patients with DGE and those without DGE. CONCLUSION Patients who developed DGE reported a significantly reduced QoL and reduced physical and psychosocial functioning within the first year after partial pancreatoduodenectomy compared to patients without DGE.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Controversy exists in the literature as to the best technique for pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), whether pyloric preservation (PP-CPD) or Whipple's technique (with antrectomy [W-CPD]), the former being associated with a higher frequency of delayed gastric emptying (DGE). METHODS Retrospective and comparative study between PP-CPD technique (n = 124 patients) and W-CPD technique (n = 126 patients), in patients who were operated for tumors of the pancreatic head and periampullary region between the period 2012 and 2023. RESULTS Surgical time was longer, although not significant, with the W-CPD technique. Pancreatic and peripancreatic tumor invasion (p = 0.031) and number of lymph nodes resected (p < 0.0001) reached statistical significance in W-CPD, although there was no significant difference between the groups in terms of lymph node tumor invasion. Regarding postoperative morbimortality (medical complications, postoperative pancreatic fistula [POPF], hemorrhage, RVG, re-interventions, in-hospital mortality, Clavien-Dindo complications), ICU and hospital stay, no statistically significant differences were observed between the groups. During follow-up, no significant differences were observed between the groups for morbidity and mortality at 90 days and survival at 1, 3 and 5 years. Binary logistic regression analysis for DGE showed that binary relevant POPF grade B/C was a significant risk factor for DGE. CONCLUSIONS Postoperative morbidity and mortality and long-term survival were not significantly different with PP-CPD and W-CPD, but POPF grade B/C was a risk factor for DGE grade C.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a modified reconstruction technique-anchored straight stomach reconstruction-in reducing the incidence of delayed gastric emptying (DGE) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and its impact on postoperative nutritional recovery. METHODS A case series analysis of 125 consecutive PD patients was conducted: 104 of them had undergone anchored straight stomach reconstruction (SSR group) and the remaining 21 without (Non-SSR group). The incidence of DGE and the change in postoperative nutritional status (body weight and serum albumin level during 12 months post-surgery) were compared. RESULTS The incidence of DGE in the SSR group (13%) was significantly lower than that in the Non-SSR group (33%) (P = .018); further the significant DGE (grade B or C) was only 5%. Comparison of nutritional status showed that SSR facilitated a prompt recovery of body weight and serum albumin level at 6 months after PD. At 12 months after surgery, body weight gain was significantly better in the SSR group than in the Non-SSR group (P = .006), and albumin level tended to be higher in the SSR group (P = .071). CONCLUSION Straight stomach reconstruction is able to reduce DGE in patients after PD and also improves their postoperative nutritional recovery.

Hand-sewn gastrojejunal anastomosis reduces delayed gastric emptying after pancreaticoduodenectomy: A single-center retrospective clinical study of 1,077 consecutive patients. Surgery 2024; 175:1140-1146. [PMID: 38290878 DOI: 10.1016/j.surg.2023.12.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2023] [Revised: 08/08/2023] [Accepted: 12/01/2023] [Indexed: 02/01/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hand-sewn anastomosis and stapled anastomosis are the 2 main types of gastrojejunal anastomotic methods in pancreaticoduodenectomy. There is ongoing debate regarding the most effective anastomotic method for reducing delayed gastric emptying after pancreaticoduodenectomy. This study aims to identify factors that influence delayed gastric emptying after pancreaticoduodenectomy and assess the impact of different anastomotic methods on delayed gastric emptying. METHODS The study included 1,077 patients who had undergone either hand-sewn anastomosis (n = 734) or stapled anastomosis (n = 343) during pancreaticoduodenectomy between December 2016 and November 2021 at our department. We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data, and a 1:1 propensity score matching was performed to balance confounding variables. RESULTS After propensity score matching, 320 patients were included in each group. Compared with the stapled anastomosis group, the hand-sewn anastomosis group had a significantly lower incidence of delayed gastric emptying (28 [8.8%] vs 55 [17.2%], P = .001) and upper gastrointestinal tract bleeding (6 [1.9%] vs 17 [5.3%], P = .02). Additionally, the hand-sewn anastomosis group had a significantly reduced postoperative length of stay and lower hospitalization expenses. However, the hand-sewn anastomosis group had a significantly longer operative time, which was consistent with the analysis before propensity score matching. Logistic regression analysis showed that stapled anastomosis, intra-abdominal infection, and clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula were independent prognostic factors for delayed gastric emptying. CONCLUSION Hand-sewn anastomosis was associated with a lower incidence rate of clinically relevant delayed gastric emptying after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Stapled anastomosis, intra-abdominal infection, and clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula could increase the incidence of postoperative clinically relevant delayed gastric emptying. Hand-sewn anastomosis should be considered by surgeons to reduce the occurrence of postoperative delayed gastric emptying and improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognostic impact of radiographic duodenal invasion (rDI) of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has yet to be fully elucidated. This retrospective study aimed to investigate the prognostic and clinicopathological significance of rDI in patients with PDAC after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 223 consecutive patients with resectable (R) and borderline resectable (BR)-PDAC that underwent up-front PD between 2002 and 2018. rDI was assessed by preoperative multi-detector row computed tomography. RESULTS Ninety-three (42%) patients with PDAC had rDI, and all of them had pathological DI (pDI). The rDI(+) group had larger tumor size, BR-PDAC was more common, there was higher serum CA19-9 level, and microscopic lymphovascular invasion was more common than in the rDI(-) group. rDI was associated with significant reduction in overall survival (OS) (P < 0.001) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) (P < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, rDI was an independent prognostic factor in OS [hazard ratio (HR) = 0.52; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.38-0.73, P < 0.001] and RFS [HR = 0.56; 95% CI 0.40-0.78, P = 0.001]. rDI was also an independent risk factor for early recurrence within 12 months [odds ratio (OR) = 0.36; 95% CI 0.18-0.73, P = 0.005]. rDI had positive correlation with liver recurrence (P = 0.024). CONCLUSION Biological aggressiveness of PDAC with rDI implies short OS and early recurrence with frequent liver metastasis. Aggressive perioperative chemotherapy is recommended to improve prognosis, especially for R-PDAC patients with rDI.

Preoperative and postoperative complications as risk factors for delayed gastric emptying following pancreaticoduodenectomy: A single-center retrospective study. World J Gastrointest Surg 2023; 15:1941-1949. [PMID: 37901734 PMCID: PMC10600768 DOI: 10.4240/wjgs.v15.i9.1941] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2023] [Revised: 06/21/2023] [Accepted: 07/18/2023] [Indexed: 09/21/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mortality rates after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) have significantly decreased in specialized centers. However, postoperative morbidity, particularly delayed gastric emptying (DGE), remains the most frequent complication following PD. AIM To identify risk factors associated with DGE after the PD procedure. METHODS In this retrospective, cross-sectional study, clinical data were collected from 114 patients who underwent PD between January 2015 and June 2018. Demographic factors, pre- and perioperative characteristics, and surgical complications were assessed. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify risk factors for post-PD DGE. RESULTS The study included 66 males (57.9%) and 48 females (42.1%), aged 33-83 years (mean: 62.5), with a male-to-female ratio of approximately 1.4:1. There were 63 cases (55.3%) of PD and 51 cases (44.7%) of pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy. Among the 114 patients who underwent PD, 33 (28.9%) developed postoperative DGE. Univariate analysis revealed significant differences in four of the 14 clinical indexes observed: pylorus preservation, retrocolonic anastomosis, postoperative abdominal complications, and early postoperative albumin (ALB). Logistic regression analysis further identified postoperative abdominal complications [odds ratio (OR) = 4.768, P = 0.002], preoperative systemic diseases (OR = 2.516, P = 0.049), and early postoperative ALB (OR = 1.195, P = 0.003) as significant risk factors. CONCLUSION Postoperative severe abdominal complications, preoperative systemic diseases, and early postoperative ALB are identified as risk factors for post-PD DGE.

Delayed gastric emptying after pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy: Comparison between traditional open surgery and full-robotic approach with da Vinci Xi. Int J Med Robot 2023:e2571. [PMID: 37655499 DOI: 10.1002/rcs.2571] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2023] [Revised: 07/22/2023] [Accepted: 08/20/2023] [Indexed: 09/02/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is a frequent complication after pancreatoduodenectomy, especially after pylorus preservation (Pp). We evaluated the effect of a fully robotic approach with da Vinci Xi on DGE after PpPD. METHODS Open and robotic PDs were performed in 353 and 50 cases, respectively, from January 2009 to March 2022. We compared the clinical outcomes and incidence of clinically relevant DGE between robotic PpPD (R-PpPD) and open PpPD after one-to-one case-control matching. RESULTS Each group consisted of 30 patients. Clinically relevant DGE was less common after R-PpPD (3/30 [10%] vs. 10/30 cases [33.3%], p = 0.028). The median length of hospital stay (LoS) was significantly lower in the R-PpPD group (10 vs. 15 days, p = 0.013). CONCLUSION The reduced tissue trauma by the minimally invasive robotic approach is associated with a lower incidence of DGE, reducing the LoS and encouraging PpPD performed using the fully robotic approach.

Positive drain fluid culture on postoperative day 1 predicts clinically relevant pancreatic fistula in early drain removal with higher drain fluid amylase after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Surgery 2023; 173:511-520. [PMID: 36402610 DOI: 10.1016/j.surg.2022.10.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2022] [Revised: 09/07/2022] [Accepted: 10/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to clarify the risk factors of clinically relevant pancreatic fistula after early drain removal with higher drain fluid amylase after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Clinical evaluation of early drain removal with a higher drain fluid amylase after pancreaticoduodenectomy has been controversial. The safety and effectiveness have not been sufficiently examined. METHODS Between 2015 and 2020, prophylactic surgical drains were prospectively removed on postoperative day 4 regardless of drain fluid amylase level in 364 study-eligible patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy. Patients were classified according to drain fluid amylase on postoperative day 1: 281 patients with drain fluid amylase <4,000 U/L, and 83 patients with drain fluid amylase ≥4,000 U/L. RESULTS Clinically relevant pancreatic fistula occurred in 40 of 364 enrolled patients (11.0%). In the entire cohort, male, positive postoperative day 1 drain fluid culture, and postoperative day 1 drain fluid amylase ≥4,000 U/L were independent risk factors for clinically relevant pancreatic fistula after early drain removal. When stratifying by 4,000 U/L of postoperative day 1 drain fluid amylase, the rate of clinically relevant pancreatic fistula in postoperative day 1 drain fluid amylase <4,000 U/L was significantly lower than that in postoperative day 1 drain fluid amylase ≥4,000 U/L (4% vs 35%, P < .001) after early drain removal. Moreover, in postoperative day 1 drain fluid amylase <4,000 U/L, positive postoperative day 1 drain fluid culture did not develop clinically relevant pancreatic fistula after early drain removal. However, in postoperative day 1 drain fluid amylase ≥4,000 U/L, multivariate analysis clarified that positive postoperative day 1 drain fluid culture was the only independent risk factor of clinically relevant pancreatic fistula after early drain removal (odds ratio 26.27, 95% confidence interval 5.59-123.56, P = .001). CONCLUSION Positive drain fluid culture on postoperative day 1 might predict clinically relevant pancreatic fistula in early drain removal with a higher drain fluid amylase.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is a common complication after pancreatoduodenectomy associated with a low complication burden but a prolonged hospital stay. The present study aimed to characterize DGE, with a particular focus on its subtypes and related predictors. METHODS A 2-center retrospective analysis was performed including consecutive pancreatoduodenectomy over 5 years. Primary delayed gastric emptying (pDGE) and secondary delayed gastric emptying (sDGE) were defined according to the presence of concomitant causing factors. Predictors of DGE, pDGE and sDGE were assessed through logistic regression. RESULTS Out of 1,170 patients considered, 188 developed delayed gastric emptying (16.1%). Most DGE (71.8%) were secondary. sDGE resolved later (P = .007), with hospital stay, duration of total parenteral nutrition, and of enteral nutrition being longer than for pDGE (all P < .005). Smoking status, total operative time, indication for surgery other than pancreatic cancer, estimated blood loss, and soft pancreatic texture were independent predictors of DGE. In the subgroup analysis of pDGE, smoking was the only independent predictor, whereas pylorus-preservation was a protective factor. Smoking, indication for surgery, estimated blood loss, soft gland texture, and main pancreatic duct diameter were independent predictors of sDGE. CONCLUSION DGE after pancreatoduodenectomy consists of 2 different subtypes. The primary form resolves earlier, and its occurrence might be reduced by pylorus preservation. For the secondary form, clinicians should focus on preventing and treating other trigger complications. The diagnosis of the DGE subtype has critical therapeutic implications and paves the way for further systematic studies.

Abstract
CONTEXT The glucose tolerance of patients changes considerably from before to after pancreaticoduodenectomy wherein approximately half of the pancreas is resected. OBJECTIVE The aim of this prospective study was to investigate the incidence of and risk factors for diabetes after pancreaticoduodenectomy. METHODS This study is a part of an ongoing prospective study, the Kindai Prospective Study on Metabolism and Endocrinology after Pancreatectomy (KIP-MEP) study. Of the 457 patients enrolled to date, 96 patients without diabetes who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy were investigated in this study. Preoperatively, 1 month post-pancreaticoduodenectomy, and every 6 months thereafter, the glucose metabolism and endocrine function were evaluated using the 75 g oral glucose tolerance test. Various other metabolic, endocrine, and exocrine indices were also examined over a period of up to 36 months. RESULTS Of the 96 patients analyzed in this study, 33 were newly diagnosed with diabetes. The cumulative diabetes incidence at 36 months following pancreaticoduodenectomy was 53.8%. The preoperative insulinogenic index and ΔC-peptide in the glucagon stimulation test were significantly lower in the progressors to diabetes than in the nonprogressors. Multivariate Cox regression analysis demonstrated that the insulinogenic index was the only significant risk factor for new-onset diabetes. CONCLUSION The majority of patients developed new-onset diabetes after pancreaticoduodenectomy, and a low value of the insulinogenic index was suggested to be a risk factor for diabetes. Preoperative assessment for the prediction of the onset of diabetes serves as useful information for patients and is important for postoperative glycemic control and diabetes management in patients who require pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy (PPPD) has been the gold standard for pancreatic head lesion resection for several years. Some studies have noted that it involves more delayed gastric emptying (DGE) than classical Whipple (i.e., pancreatoduodenectomy with antrectomy). Our working hypothesis was that the classical Whipple has a lower incidence of DGE. We aimed to compare the incidence of DGE among pancreatoduodenectomy techniques. METHODS This pragmatic, randomized, open-label, single-center clinical trial involved patients who underwent classical Whipple (study group) or PPPD (control group). Gastric emptying was clinically evaluated using scintigraphy. DGE was defined according to the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) criteria. The secondary endpoints were postoperative morbidity, length of hospital stay, anthropometric measurements, and nutritional status. RESULTS A total of 84 patients were randomized (42 per group). DGE incidence was 50% (20/40, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 35-65%) in the study group and 62% (24/39, 95% CI: 46-75%) in the control group (p = 0.260). No differences were observed between both groups regarding postoperative morbidity or length of hospital stay. Anthropometric measurements at 6 months post-surgery: triceps fold measurements were 12 mm and 16 mm (p = 0.021). At 5 weeks post-surgery, triceps fold measurements were 13 mm and 16 mm (p = 0.020) and upper arm circumferences were 26 cm and 28 cm (p = 0.030). No significant differences were observed in nutritional status. CONCLUSION DGE incidence and severity did not differ between classical Whipple and PPPD. Some anthropometric measurements may indicate a better recovery with PPPD. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03984734.

Abstract
Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) often suffer from delayed gastric emptying, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. We have shown previously that a PD rat model comprising bilateral substantia nigra destruction by 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA rats) exhibits gastroparesis with alteration of neural nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) and acetylcholine in gastric corpus. However, changes in pyloric motility in the 6-OHDA rats have not been characterized. Solid gastric emptying test, immunofluorescence, Western blot, and in vitro pyloric motility recordings were used to assess pyloric motor function in the 6-OHDA rats. The 6-OHDA-treated rats displayed delayed solid gastric emptying and a lower basal pyloric motility index. In the 6-OHDA rats, high K+-induced transient contractions were weaker in pyloric sphincters. Electric field stimulation (EFS)-induced pyloric sphincter relaxation was lower in the 6-OHDA rats. NG-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (l-NAME), a nonselective inhibitor of NOS, markedly inhibited the EFS-induced relaxation in both control and 6-OHDA rats. Pretreatment of tetrodotoxin abolished the effect of EFS on the pyloric motility. In addition, nNOS-positive neurons were extensively distributed in the pyloric myenteric plexus, whereas the number of nNOS-immunoreactive neurons and the protein expression of nNOS were significantly decreased in the pyloric muscularis of 6-OHDA rats. However, sodium nitroprusside-induced pyloric relaxations were similar between the control and 6-OHDA rats. These results indicate that the pyloric sphincters of 6-OHDA rats exhibit both weakened contraction and relaxation. The latter may be due to reduced nNOS in the pyloric myenteric plexus. The dysfunction of the pyloric sphincter might be involved in the delayed gastric emptying.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Reduced nitrergic neurons in pyloric myenteric plexus potently contributed to the attenuated relaxation in 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) rats, subsequently affecting gastric emptying. SNP could well improve the relaxation of pylori in 6-OHDA rats. The present study provides new insight into the diagnosis and treatment of delayed gastric emptying in patients with PD.

The impact of gastrojejunostomy orientation on delayed gastric emptying after pancreaticoduodenectomy: a single center comparative analysis. HPB (Oxford) 2022; 24:654-663. [PMID: 34654621 DOI: 10.1016/j.hpb.2021.09.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2021] [Revised: 07/14/2021] [Accepted: 09/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) represents the most frequent complication after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of gastrojejunostomy (GJ)orientation on DGE incidence after PD. METHODS One-hundred and twenty-one consecutive PDs were included in the analysis and divided in the horizontal (H-GJ group) and vertical GJ anastomosis groups (V-GJ group). Postoperative data and the value of the flow angle between the efferent jejunal limb and the stomach of the GJ anastomosis at the upper gastrointestinal series were registered. RESULTS Seventy-five patients (62%)underwent H-GJ, while 46 patients (38%)underwent V-GJ. The incidence of DGE was significantly lower in the V-GJ group as compared to the H-GJ group (23.9%vs45.3%; p = 0.02). V-GJ was also associated to a less severe DGE manifestation (p = 0.006). The flow angle was significantly lower in case of V-GJ as compared to H-GJ (24.5°vs37°; p = 0.002). At the multivariate analysis, ASA score≥3 (p = 0.02), H-GJ (p = 0.03), flow angle>30°(p = 0.004) and Clavien-Dindo≥3 (p = 0.03) were recognized as independent prognostic factors for DGE. These same factors were independent prognostic features also for a more severe DGE manifestation. CONCLUSION VGJ and the more acute flow angle appear to be associated to a lower incidence rate and severity of DGE. This modified technique should be considered by surgeons in order to reduce postoperative DGE occurrence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This individual-patient data meta-analysis investigated the effects of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols compared with conventional care on postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy. METHODS The Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched systematically for articles reporting outcomes of ERAS after pancreatoduodenectomy published up to August 2020. Comparative studies were included. Main outcomes were postoperative functional recovery elements, postoperative morbidity, duration of hospital stay, and readmission. RESULTS Individual-patient data were obtained from 17 of 31 eligible studies comprising 3108 patients. Time to liquid (mean difference (MD) -3.23 (95 per cent c.i. -4.62 to -1.85) days; P < 0.001) and solid (-3.84 (-5.09 to -2.60) days; P < 0.001) intake, time to passage of first stool (MD -1.38 (-1.82 to -0.94) days; P < 0.001) and time to removal of the nasogastric tube (3.03 (-4.87 to -1.18) days; P = 0.001) were reduced with ERAS. ERAS was associated with lower overall morbidity (risk difference (RD) -0.04, 95 per cent c.i. -0.08 to -0.01; P = 0.015), less delayed gastric emptying (RD -0.11, -0.22 to -0.01; P = 0.039) and a shorter duration of hospital stay (MD -2.33 (-2.98 to -1.69) days; P < 0.001) without a higher readmission rate. CONCLUSION ERAS improved postoperative outcome after pancreatoduodenectomy. Implementation should be encouraged.

The PrEDICT-DGE score as a simple preoperative screening tool identifies patients at increased risk for delayed gastric emptying after pancreaticoduodenectomy. HPB (Oxford) 2022; 24:30-39.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Morbidity after Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) has remained unchanged over the past decade. Delayed Gastric Emptying (DGE) is a major contributor with significant impact on healthcare-costs, quality of life and, for malignancies, even survival. We sought to develop a scoring system to aid in easy preoperative identification of patients at risk for DGE. METHODS The ACS-NSQIP dataset from 2014 to 2018 was queried for patients undergoing PD with Whipple or pylorus preserving reconstruction. 15,154 patients were analyzed using multivariable logistic regression to identify risk factors for DGE, which were incorporated into a prediction model. Subgroup analysis of patients without SSI or fistula (primary DGE) was performed. RESULTS We identified 9 factors independently associated with DGE to compile the PrEDICT-DGE score: Procedures (Concurrent adhesiolysis, feeding jejunostomy, vascular reconstruction with vein graft), Elderly (Age>70), Ductal stent (Lack of biliary stent), Invagination (Pancreatic reconstruction technique), COPD, Tobacco use, Disease, systemic (ASA>2), Gender (Male) and Erythrocytes (preoperative RBC-transfusion). PrEDICT-DGE scoring strongly correlated with actual DGE rates (R2 = 0.95) and predicted patients at low, intermediate, and high risk. Subgroup analysis of patients with primary DGE, retained all predictive factors, except for age>70 (p = 0.07) and ASA(p = 0.30). CONCLUSION PrEDICT-DGE scoring accurately identifies patients at high risk for DGE and can help guide perioperative management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is a frequent complication after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) that impairs recovery and quality of life. The purpose of this study was to assess the impact risk-stratified pancreatectomy clinical pathways (RSPCPs) had on delayed gastric emptying (DGE) and identify factors associated with DGE in a contemporary period. METHODS A single-institution, prospective database was queried for consecutive PDs during July 2011-November 2019. Using international definitions, DGE rates were compared between periods before and after RSPCPs were implemented in 2016, classifying patients according to their postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) risk. Risk factors were analyzed to identify modifiable targets. RESULTS Among 724 elective PDs, 552 (76%) were for adenocarcinoma and 172 (24%) for other diagnoses. Of the 197 (27%) patients with DGE, 119 (16%) had type A, 41 (6%) type B, and 38 (5%) type C. In the overall cohort, DGE rates were higher with pylorus-preserving vs. classic hand-sewn reconstruction (odds ratio [OR] - 1.84; p < 0.001), postoperative abscess (OR - 2.54; p = 0.003), and non-white patients (p = 0.007), but lower after implementation of RSPCPs (OR - 0.34, p < 0.001). In the 374 patients treated with RSPCPs, only 17% (n = 65/374) developed DGE. Patients with protocol-compliant NGT removal ≤ 48 h were less likely to experience DGE (OR - 1.46, p = 0.042). CONCLUSION Our data suggest that implementation of preoperatively assigned RSPCPs as a care bundle was the most important factor in decreasing DGE. These gains were accentuated in patients who underwent early nasogastric tube removal and had a classic hand-sewn gastro-jejunostomy reconstruction. Application of these modifiable factors is generalizable with low implementation barriers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evaluation of recurrence pattern and risk factors for recurrence are essential for good rates of survival after upfront pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). METHODS This retrospective study included 167 consecutive patients who underwent upfront PD for resectable PDAC between 2000 and 2018. Postoperative recurrences were classified into three patterns according to initial recurrence site: isolated locoregional, isolated distant, and simultaneous locoregional and distant recurrences. RESULTS This study found 114 patients who developed postoperative recurrence (68.3%), including 37 patients with isolated locoregional recurrence (32.5%), 67 patients with isolated distant recurrence (58.8%), and 10 patients with simultaneous locoregional and distant recurrences (6.0%). When locoregional recurrence was classified based on the location of recurrent lesions, locoregional recurrence most commonly occurred around the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) (70.2%), followed by around the hepatic artery (25.5%) and in the paraaortic region (14.9%). Multivariate analyses showed that complete circumferential lymphadenectomy around the SMA, including not only the right side, but also the left side, was an independent factor for reduction of locoregional recurrence (P = 0.019, odds ratio [OR]: 2.217). Lymph node metastasis was an independent risk factor for both locoregional (P < 0.001, OR: 3.686) and distant recurrences (P < 0.001, OR: 4.315). Non-completion of postoperative adjuvant therapy was a risk factor for distant recurrence (P < 0.001, OR: 3.748). CONCLUSION Based on our data, complete circumferential lymphadenectomy around the SMA might contribute to local control, and multidisciplinary treatment including neoadjuvant therapy might be needed for resectable PDAC with high risk for recurrence.

Impact of gastric resection and enteric anastomotic configuration on delayed gastric emptying after pancreaticoduodenectomy: a network meta-analysis of randomized trials. BJS Open 2021; 5:6275938. [PMID: 33989392 PMCID: PMC8121488 DOI: 10.1093/bjsopen/zrab035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2021] [Accepted: 03/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is frequent after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Several RCTs have explored operative strategies to minimize DGE, however, the optimal combination of gastric resection approach, anastomotic route, configuration and the use of enteroenterostomy remains unclear. Methods MEDLINE, Embase and CENTRAL databases were systematically searched for RCTs comparing gastric resection (classic Whipple, pylorus-resecting, pylorus-preserving), anastomotic route (antecolic, retrocolic), configuration (loop gastroenterostomy/Billroth II, Roux-en-Y), and use of enteroenterostomy (Braun). A random-effects, Bayesian network meta-analysis with non-informative priors was conducted to determine the optimal combination of approaches to PD for minimizing DGE. Results Twenty-four RCTs, including 2526 patients and 14 approaches were included. There was some heterogeneity, although inconsistency was low. The overall incidence of DGE was 25.6 per cent (647 patients). Pylorus-resecting, antecolic, Billroth II with Braun enteroenterostomy was associated with the lowest rates of DGE and ranked the best in 35 per cent of comparisons. Classic Whipple, retrocolic, Billroth II with Braun ranked the worst for DGE in 32 per cent of comparisons. Pairwise meta-analysis of retrocolic versus antecolic route for gastrojejunostomy found increased risk of DGE with the retrocolic route (odds ratio 2.10, 95 per cent credibility interval (cr.i.) 0.92 to 4.70). Pairwise meta-analysis of enteroenterostomy found a trend towards lower DGE rates when this was used (odds ratio 1.90, 95 per cent cr.i. 0.92 to 3.90). Having a Braun enteroenterostomy ranked the best in 96 per cent of comparisons. Conclusion Based on existing RCT evidence, a pylorus-resecting, antecolic, Billroth II with Braun enteroenterostomy seems to be associated with the lowest rates of DGE.

Previous upper abdominal surgery is a risk factor for nasogastric tube reinsertion after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Surgery 2021; 170:1223-1230. [PMID: 33958204 DOI: 10.1016/j.surg.2021.03.059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2020] [Revised: 02/28/2021] [Accepted: 03/30/2021] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreaticoduodenectomy without subsequent nasogastric tube management has not been widely adopted due to delayed gastric emptying, the specific and frequent morbidity associated with this surgical procedure. We assessed the feasibility of pancreaticoduodenectomy without use of nasogastric tubes and the risk factors for subsequent nasogastric tube reinsertion. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 465 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy at a single institution between 2010 and 2019. Primary endpoint was the rate of nasogastric tube reinsertion. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine independent risk factors of nasogastric tube reinsertion and delayed gastric emptying. RESULTS The rate of nasogastric tube reinsertion was 10.1% (47/465). The rate of delayed gastric emptying was 9.5% (44/465). Logistic regression analysis identified 4 independent risk factors for nasogastric tube reinsertion: male sex (odds ratio = 4.42; 95% confidence interval 1.50-13.0, P = .007), comorbidity of cardiac ischemia (odds ratio = 3.04; 95% confidence interval 1.05-8.79, P = .041), preoperative cholangitis or cholecystitis (odds ratio = 2.21; 95% confidence interval 1.02-4.76, P = .044), and previous upper abdominal surgery (odds ratio = 8.34; 95% confidence interval 3.07-22.7, P < .001). Independent risk factors for delayed gastric emptying were male sex (odds ratio = 3.20; 95% confidence interval 1.11-9.21, P = .031), comorbidity of cardiac ischemia (odds ratio = 3.81; 95% confidence interval 1.34-10.8, P = .012), concomitant organ resection (odds ratio = 3.99; 95% confidence interval 1.10-14.4, P = .035), and previous upper abdominal surgery (odds ratio = 7.21; 95% confidence interval 2.68-19.4, P < .001). CONCLUSION Pancreaticoduodenectomy without use of nasogastric tubes is feasible, but patients with previous upper abdominal surgery require careful postoperative nasogastric tube management.

Comprehensive strategy for perioperative care of pancreaticoduodenectomy according to the risk stratification by pancreatic fistula and delayed gastric emptying. Asian J Surg 2021; 45:172-178. [PMID: 33933358 DOI: 10.1016/j.asjsur.2021.04.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2020] [Revised: 02/02/2021] [Accepted: 04/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/02/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is highly invasive with unsatisfactory postoperative complication rates. Nutritional and fluid management after major surgery attracts much attention with regard to the reduction in severe postoperative complications. We retrospectively analyzed PD cases and proposed a novel strategy for perioperative fluid and nutritional therapy according to the risk stratification by pancreatic fistula (PF) and delayed gastric emptying (DGE). METHODS Between 2003 and 2018, 140 patients underwent PD at our institute of which 134 patients were enrolled. We evaluated the clinicopathological factors affecting severe (≥10%) body weight loss (BWL), factors affecting the incidence of PF and intraabdominal complications (IAC), and factors related to DGE. RESULTS Multivariate analysis indicated that male sex, severe PF, and DGE are significant risk factors for BWL ≥10%. PF and IAC were predominantly observed in male patients and those with non-pancreatic cancer. A fluid balance ≥6000 ml on postoperative day 2 was the sole risk factor for primary DGE. Secondary DGE significantly correlated with stomach preserving PD. Importantly, the average BWL was around 15% in grade B or C secondary DGE. CONCLUSION Severe postoperative complications resulted in significant BWL. Enteral feeding is unnecessary in cases with a hard pancreas and dilated pancreatic duct if appropriate perioperative fluid management is performed. Secondary DGE followed by PF or IAC is unavoidable to some extent, especially in the case of soft pancreas with a fine pancreatic duct. In such cases, enteral feeding with tube ileostomy should be considered, and stomach preserving PD is likely to be harmful.

Abstract
CONTEXT The rate of glucose metabolism changes drastically after partial pancreatectomy. OBJECTIVE This work aims to analyze changes in patients' glucose metabolism and endocrine and exocrine function before and after partial pancreatectomy relative to different resection types (Kindai Prospective Study on Metabolism and Endocrinology after Pancreatectomy: KIP-MEP study). METHODS A series of 278 consecutive patients with scheduled pancreatectomy were enrolled into our prospective study. Of them, 109 individuals without diabetes, who underwent partial pancreatectomy, were investigated. Data were compared between patients with pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD, n = 73) and those with distal pancreatectomy (DP, n = 36). RESULTS Blood glucose levels during the 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (75gOGTT) significantly decreased after pancreatectomy in the PD group (area under the curve [AUC] -9.3%, P < .01), and significantly increased in the DP population (AUC + 16.8%, P < .01). Insulin secretion rate during the 75gOGTT and glucagon stimulation test significantly decreased after pancreatectomy both in the PD and DP groups (P < .001). Both groups showed similar homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) values after pancreatectomy. Decrease in exocrine function quality after pancreatectomy was more marked in association with PD than DP (P < .01). Multiple regression analysis indicated that resection type and preoperative HOMA-IR independently influenced glucose tolerance-related postoperative outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Blood glucose levels after the OGTT differed markedly between PD and DP populations. The observed differences between PD and DP suggest the importance of individualization in the management of metabolism and nutrition after partial pancreatectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) leads to life-threatening complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Pancreaticogastrostomy (PG) often adopted as a reconstruction technique after PD to prevent POPF. Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) following PD is the most common complication that compromises the quality of life. Subtotal stomach-preserving PD (SSPPD) preserves the pooling ability of the stomach and minimize the occurrence of DGE. This study aimed to describe our PG technique following SSPPD and evaluate the perioperative outcomes. METHODS The study included patients who underwent PG following SSPPD from August 2013 to July 2020 at our institution. An invaginated PG was performed by one-layer eight interrupted sutures with a lost stent. Patients' demographics and perioperative outcomes were documented. RESULTS This technique was applied in 72 patients with a median age of 75 years. The median operative time was 342 min. The clinically relevant POPF, DGE and post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage was 4 (5.6%), 5 (6.9%), and 10 (13.9%), respectively. Although the drain fluid amylase concentration on postoperative day 3 was significantly higher in clinically relevant POPF (CR-POPF) positive group (median, 2006 U/L vs. 74 U/L in CR-POPF negative group, p = 0.002), none of the risk factors including disease pathology, pancreatic duct diameter, texture of pancreas and excessive blood loss were significantly associated with CR-POPF. Other morbidity ≥ Clavien-Dindo classification II occurred in 29 patients (40.3%). The 90-days operative mortality was two (2.8%). CONCLUSIONS This novel method of one-layer invaginated PG following SSPPD is safe and dependable procedure with acceptable morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is the main complication after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), but the mechanism is still unclear. The aim of this study was to elucidate the role of complete resection of the gastric antrum in decreasing incidence and severity of DGE after PD. METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups: expanded resection (ER group), complete resection (CR group), and incomplete resection (IR group) of the gastric antrum. The tension (g) of remnant stomach contraction was observed. We analyzed the histological morphology of the gastric wall by different excisional methods after distal gastrectomy. Moreover, patients underwent PD at our department between January 2012 and May 2016 were included in the study. These cases were divided into IR group and CR group of the gastric antrum, and the clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS The ex vivo remnant stomachs of CR group exhibited much greater contraction tension than others (P < 0.05). The contraction tension of the remnant stomach increased with increasing acetylcholine concentration, while remained stable at the concentration of 10 × 10-5 mol/L. Furthermore, 174 consecutive patients were included and retrospectively analyzed in the study. The incidence of DGE was significantly lower (3.5% vs. 21.3%, P < 0.01) in CR group than in IR group. In addition, hematoxylin-eosin staining analyses of the gastric wall confirmed that the number of transected circular smooth muscle bundles were higher in IR group than in CR group (8.24 ± 0.65 vs. 3.76 ± 0.70, P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The complete resection of the gastric antrum is associated with decreased incidence and severity of DGE after PD. Gastric electrophysiological and physiopathological disorders caused by damage to gastric smooth muscles might be the mechanism underlying DGE.

Ann Hepatobiliary Pancreat Surg 2021; 25:84-89. [PMID: 33649259 PMCID: PMC7952675 DOI: 10.14701/ahbps.2021.25.1.84] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2020] [Revised: 10/14/2020] [Accepted: 10/15/2020] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Backgrounds/Aims A stapler is widely used in various surgeries, and there have been recent attempts to use it for performing duodenojejunostomy and gastrojejunostomy during pancreaticoduodenectomy. This study aimed to compare the postoperative results of handsewn gastrojejunostomy (HGJ) and stapled gastrojejunstomy (SGJ) limited to pylorus-resecting pancreaticoduodenectomy (PrPD) performed by a single surgeon. Methods This retrospective study was conducted between January 2014 and March 2020, and included 131 patients who underwent PrPD performed by a single surgeon. Of the total subjects, 90 were in the HGJ group and 41 in the SGJ group. Results The mean time of surgery was significantly shorter in the stapled group than in the handsewn group (450.4±75.4 min vs. 397.1±66.5 min, p<0.001). However, there were no significant differences between the groups in the rates of postoperative pancreatic fistula, bile leak, chyle leak, intra-abdominal fluid collection, postoperative bleeding, ileus, Clavien-Dindo, rate of reoperation, and 30-day mortality, including delayed gastric emptying (DGE) (n=11 vs. n=6, p=0.92). Conclusions Gastrojejunostomy using a stapler in PrPD reduces the reconstruction time without any increase in the rate of complications, including DGE. Therefore, using a stapler for gastrojejunostomy in pancreaticoduodenectomy is feasible and safe.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pancreaticoduodenectomy is one of the more complicated operations that exists in surgery, and is fraught with potential morbidity, the most well-known, and dreaded, of which is the pancreatic leak. While much of the risk associated with pancreatic leak is inherent to the operation, there have been no shortage of techniques employed by surgeons to try to mitigate that risk. METHODS We focused on four topics of greatest conjecture with regard to reconstruction after pancreaticoduodenectomy: (1) the type of anastomosis, (2) the enteral organ to which the pancreas is sewn, (3) whether to preserve the pylorus and (4) whether or not to use anastomotic silastic stents. We identified the most relevant randomized control trials on each topic, which were appropriately powered. RESULTS We identified a total of 15 studies for evaluation, (type of anastomosis: n = 4; enteral organ to which the pancreas is sewn: n = 4; whether to preserve the pylorus, n=3; and whether or not to use anastomotic silastic stents, n = 4). In each group of comparisons, there was no definitive conclusion to be made on superiority of reconstruction. CONCLUSION While clear consensus on how best to reconstruct the anatomy after pancreaticoduodenectomy has not yet been reached, we present the following review in the hope of providing some understanding of the literature for the pancreatic surgeon.

Abstract
Introduction Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) remains an important problem after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). There is a lack of effective treatments for early recovery of oral dietary intake. Rikkunshito (RKT), a Japanese herbal medicine, has been gaining attention as a facilitator of gastric emptying. We evaluated the effects of RKT on DGE after PD. Methods In this prospective, randomized, open-labeled study, patients were randomly allocated before PD in a 1:1 ratio to the RKT group or the control group that received no additional treatment. The RKT group received 2.5 g of RKT three times daily (7.5 g/day) from postoperative day (POD) 1 to POD 21. The primary endpoint was the incidence of DGE. Secondary endpoints were short-term postoperative outcomes including oral dietary intake volume and perioperative changes in levels of the hormones ghrelin and leptin. Patients were observed until hospital discharge. Results Twenty-six patients in each group (n = 52) completed the protocol treatment and were included in the analysis set. There were no statistically significant differences in basic characteristics and operative factors. The overall incidence of DGE was not statistically different between the RKT and control groups (30.8% vs 30.8%, p>0.9999). There were no statistically significant differences in the amount of postoperative oral dietary intake represented by total dietary intake (TDI) up to POD 14 and POD 21, complications, and length of hospital stay. No adverse events related to this study were observed. In the RKT group, total ghrelin and acyl-ghrelin were significantly upregulated and leptin was significantly downregulated earlier than in the control group. Conclusion RKT treatment from POD 1 to 21 did not reduce the incidence of DGE and had no clinically beneficial effect on short-term postoperative outcomes irrespective of changes in hormone levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is one of the most common complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). The aim of the present meta-analysis was to evaluate the effect of Billroth-II(B-II) versus Roux-en-Y (R-Y) reconstruction for gastrojejunostomy on DGE after PD. METHODS A systematic literature search was performed using the electronic database MEDLINE (via PubMed and OVID), EMBASE and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) of the Cochrane Library to select pertinent randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on this topic from January 1990 to January 2020. The primary outcome was identified as postoperative DGE. Subgroup analysis was established to compare the incidence of grade B and C DGE. Software Revman 5.3 was used for the statistical analysis, summary statistics were calculated using fixed effect model or random effect model. RESULTS Five RCTs including a total of 612 patients were eligible for this meta-analysis. The incidence of grade B and C DGE was significantly lower with the B-II reconstruction than with the R-Y reconstruction (8.0% vs. 14.8%, OR = 0.49, 95% CI: 0.26-0.95, P = 0.03) and the B-II reconstruction took a shorter operation time (WMD=-7.18, 95% CI: [-13.09, -1.27], P = 0,02). No statistically significant difference was found between the two reconstruction methods in terms of the incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF), bile leak, intra-abdominal abscess, postoperative pneumonia and the length of postoperative hospital stay. CONCLUSIONS B-II reconstruction after PD has a lower incidence of grade B and C DGE and shorter operation time compared with R-Y reconstruction.

Intraoperative endoluminal pyloromyotomy as a novel approach to reduce delayed gastric emptying after pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy-a retrospective study. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2020; 406:1103-1110. [PMID: 33057756 PMCID: PMC8208917 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-020-02008-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2020] [Accepted: 10/01/2020] [Indexed: 01/26/2023]
Abstract
Background Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is one of the most common complications after pylorus-preserving partial pancreaticoduodenectomy (ppPD). The aim of this retrospective study was to assess whether an intraoperative pyloromyotomy during ppPD prior to the creation of duodenojejunostomy reduces DGE. Methods Patients who underwent pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy between January 2015 and December 2017 were divided into two groups on the basis of whether an intraoperative pyloromyotomy was performed (pyloromyotomy (PM) group) or not (no pyloromyotomy (NP) group). The primary endpoint was DGE according to the ISGPS definition. The confirmatory analysis of the primary endpoint was performed with multivariate analysis. Results One hundred and ten patients were included in the statistical analysis. Pyloromyotomy was performed in 44 of 110 (40%) cases. DGE of any grade was present in 62 patients (56.4%). The DGE rate was lower in the PM group (40.9%) compared with the NP group (66.7%), and pyloromyotomy was associated with a reduced risk for DGE in univariate (OR 0.35, 95% CI 0.16–0.76; P = 0.008) and multivariate analyses (OR 0.32, 95% CI 0.13–0.77; P = 0.011). The presence of an intra-abdominal complication was an independent risk factor for DGE in the multivariate analysis (OR 5.54, 95% CI 2.00–15.36; P = 0.001). Conclusion Intraoperative endoluminal pyloromyotomy during ppPD was associated with a reduced risk for DGE in this retrospective study. Pyloromyotomy should be considered a simple technique that can potentially reduce DGE rates after ppPD.

Is delayed gastric emptying associated with pylorus ring preservation in patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy? Asian J Surg 2020; 44:137-142. [PMID: 32951961 DOI: 10.1016/j.asjsur.2020.08.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2020] [Revised: 08/13/2020] [Accepted: 08/21/2020] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE A high incidence of delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is observed in patients undergoing pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy (PpPD). However, DGE incidence after pancreaticoduodenectomy varied because of heterogeneity in surgical techniques, number of surgeons, and DGE definition. This study aimed to evaluate the difference in the incidence of DGE following PpPD and pylorus-resecting pancreaticoduodenectomy (PrPD) and to analyze the risk factor of DGE by a single surgeon to determine whether pylorus preservation was the main factor of DGE. METHODS This retrospective study included 115 patients who underwent PpPD (with pylorus ring preservation) and PrPD (without pylorus ring preservation) with laparotomy by a single surgeon at a tertiary center. RESULTS The overall incidence of DGE was 23.1%. For comparison, 20 patients (39.2%) in the PpPD group and 5 patients (8.8%) in the PrPD group had DGE, showing a significant difference (p < 0.001). On univariate analysis, hypertension, PpPD, operation time, intraoperative bleeding, packed red blood cell transfusion ≥500 mL, and clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula were associated with DGE. Multivariate analysis identified pylorus preservation and clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula as risk factors for DGE. CONCLUSION Compared with PpPD, PrPD significantly reduced the incidence of DGE.

Abstract
Background Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is a common and frustrating complication of pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Studies suggest that surgical methods and other clinical characteristics may affect the occurrence of DGE. Nevertheless, the results of such studies are conflicting. The objective of this work was to perform a propensity score matching analysis to compare the differences between pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy (PPPD) and pylorus-removing pancreaticoduodenectomy (PrPD) and to develop and validate a nomogram to predict the probability of severe DGE (SDGE). Methods This retrospective study enrolled patients who underwent PD at our institution from December 2009 to December 2018. Propensity score matching was applied at a ratio of 1:1 to compare PPPD and PrPD groups. We compared incidence of complications, DGE, lengths of hospital stay, hospitalization costs, and mortality. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed to identify potential risk factors of severe DGE. Finally, a nomogram was developed and validated to predict severe DGE. Results The PPPD group had a significantly higher rate of postoperative pancreatic fistula (29.9% versus 17.4%, P < 0.05) and less blood loss (463.7 ml versus 694.9 ml, P < 0.05). After propensity score matching, the PPPD group had a significantly higher rate of postoperative DGE (19.2% versus 3.8%, P < 0.05), especially severe DGE (17.3% versus 0%) than the PrPD group. There were no significant differences in terms of lengths of hospital stay, hospitalization costs or mortality between the groups. Surgical method, biliary leakage, abdominal infection, and diabetes were independent risk factors for SDGE. The nomogram predicted SDGE with a training C - index of 0.798 and a validation C - index of 0.721. Conclusion PPPD increases the risk of DGE than PrPD, especially SDGE. Our prediction nomogram gives good prediction of SDGE after pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Abstract
Chronic pancreatitis is a complex and irreversible disease of the pancreas and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Nutrition deficiencies in chronic pancreatitis are common and can be atypical in nature. As such, the management of these deficiencies can be individualized for patients. The aim of this review is to discuss the components of nutrition deficiencies in chronic pancreatitis, their management, and the current areas of research that are being explored. The clinical guidelines of major national and international societies were analyzed for recommendations on the nutrition management of chronic pancreatitis. The etiology of nutrition deficiencies in chronic pancreatitis is multifactorial and includes aspects of exocrine and/or endocrine dysfunction, significant abdominal pain, often persistent alcohol consumption, and increased metabolic activity. A large number of patients with nutrition deficiencies are underrecognized and undertreated. Although the majority of these patients can be managed by oral and pancreatic enzyme supplementation, some patients may require enteral tube feeding and, in rare cases, parenteral feeding. Current areas of research include the accurate identification of patients at risk for nutrition deficiencies, optimization of feeding regimens, and research into islet cell autotransplantation.

Abstract
Background The association between delayed gastric emptying (DGE) after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) and pancreatic reconstruction technique remain unclear. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the occurrence of DGE differs between pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) and pancreaticogastrostomy (PG). Methods A total of 83 patients who underwent subtotal stomach-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy was retrospectively analyzed, and the factors associated with clinically relevant DGE were explored. These patients were divided into a PG group and a PJ group according to the pancreatic reconstruction. DGE occurrence and its association with intra-abdominal complications was compared between the two types of pancreatic reconstruction. Results The overall incidence of DGE was 27.7%. Intra-abdominal complications including pancreatic fistula were strongly associated with DGE. As to the pancreatic reconstruction, DGE developed more frequently in the PG than in the PJ. In addition, DGE with intra-abdominal complications tended to be more frequent in PG, despite the fact that intra-abdominal complications occurred at a similar frequency in both groups. Conclusions Intra-abdominal complications were strongly associated with DGE. As to the pancreatic reconstruction, DGE developed more frequently in the PG than in the PJ. We speculate that intra-abdominal complications affected patients with PG more and resulted in frequent occurrence of DGE.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The randomized controlled PROPP trial (DKRS00004191) showed that pylorus-resecting pancreatoduodenectomy (PR) is not superior to the pylorus-preserving procedure (PP) in terms of perioperative outcome, specifically in reduction of delayed gastric emptying. Non-superiority of PR was also confirmed in a recent meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. However, long-term data on morbidity and quality of life after PP compared to PR are sparse. The aim of this study was to investigate long-term outcomes of patients included in the PROPP trial. METHODS Between February 2013 and June 2016, a total of 188 patients underwent PD and were intraoperatively randomized to either preservation or resection of the pylorus (95 vs. 93 patients). For long-term follow-up, morbidity and quality of life (EORTC QLQ-C30/PAN26) were monitored until January 1, 2018. Statistical analysis was performed on an intention-to-treat basis. RESULTS The mean duration of follow-up was 34.3 (± 11.3) months. Sixty-three of the 188 patients had died (PP n = 33, PR n = 30), 29 patients were lost to follow-up (PP n = 17, PR n = 12), and the remaining 96 patients were included in long-term follow-up (PP n = 45, PR n = 51). There was no difference between PP and PR patients regarding endocrine and exocrine pancreatic function, receipt of adjuvant/palliative chemotherapy, cancer recurrence, and other relevant characteristics. Late cholangitis occurred significantly more often in patients following pylorus resection (P = 0.042). Reoperations, readmissions to hospital, and quality of life scores except pain were comparable between the two study groups. CONCLUSIONS Similar to short-term results, long-term follow-up showed no significant differences between pylorus resection compared to pylorus preservation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is a frequent complication after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), impairing oral food intake and reducing the quality of life. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of 4/5 gastrectomy on DGE after PD. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients undergoing pylorus-preserving PD (ppPD) were compared with PD with 4/5 subtotal gastrectomy, including resection of the gastric fundus (SGPD). The primary endpoint was DGE, according to the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery definition. Secondary outcomes included time to solid food intake, time to first flatus, postoperative morbidity, and body weight change 6- and 12-wk after surgery. RESULTS Sixty patients underwent either ppPD (n = 32) or SGPD (n = 28). Patient characteristics were well balanced between the groups. DGE occurred in 47% after ppPD and 18% after SGPD (P = 0.027). Compared with ppPD, time to solid food intake and time to first flatus were significantly shorter after SGPD (8 d [interquartile range 5-12] versus 5 d [4-6]; P = 0.003 and 5 d [4-7] versus 3 d [2-5]; P = 0.001, respectively). Major postoperative morbidity and hospital stay was similar between the groups. Weight loss at 6 wk was less pronounced after ppPD (-4.8% [-6.3 to -2.7] versus -7.5% [-8.9 to -5.9]; P = 0.013), however, comparable after 3 and 6 mo (ppPD -7.6% [-8.5 to -4.8] versus SGPD -8.4% [-17.3 to -5.2]; P = 0.334 and ppPD -6.0% [-14.5 to 6.0] versus SGPD -9.5% [-11.8 to -7.0], P = 0.414, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Compared with pylorus preservation, 4/5 gastrectomy significantly reduced the frequency of DGE and led to a faster gastrointestinal passage after PD. However, the benefits of a reduced DGE rate and a faster gastrointestinal passage should be carefully balanced against an increased weight loss after 4/5 gastrectomy in the early postoperative phase.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS AND AIMS This randomized clinical trial examined efficacy of prolonged elemental diet (ED) therapy after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), which often causes postoperative malnutrition leading to worsened short- and long-term outcomes. METHODS Thirty-nine patients with PDAC receiving PD was randomly assigned to prolonged ED group (PEDG) and control group (CG). Fat-free ED (Elental®, EA Pharma CO., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan) via tube jejunostomy was initiated on postoperative day 1 and increased to maintain with 600 kcal/day in addition to oral intake. ED was discontinued if sufficient oral intake was achieved in CG but continued during 3 postoperative months in PEDG. Primary outcome was complication necessitating readmission. Secondary outcomes were nutritional parameters, relative dose intensity (RDI) in cases of adjuvant chemotherapy, and survival outcomes. RESULTS Twenty patients were assigned to CG and 19 to PEDG. Cumulative post-discharge readmission rate was significantly lower in PEDG than in CG (PEDG vs CG; 12.6% vs 43.7% at 12-post-discharge-month; p = 0.018). Total calorie and ED-derived protein intakes were significantly larger in PEDG than in CG up to 3-postoperative-month but thereafter similar among groups. Lymphocyte counts were significantly increased and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte-ratio (NLR) was significantly reduced in PEDG than in CG at 2-, 3-, and 6-postoperative-month. However, other outcome measures did not differ among groups. CONCLUSION This trial failed to show survival benefit of prolonged ED therapy but demonstrated its favorable effect on increased lymphocyte counts, reduced NLR, and prevention of complications necessitating readmission, those which may lead to survival benefit with some modifications.

Abstract
Objective: This study used a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate whether mattress suture of pancreatic parenchyma and the seromuscular layer of jejunum (modified Blumgart method) during pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) decreases the incidence of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Background: Several studies reported that mattress suture of Blumgart anastomosis in PJ could reduce POPF rate. This, however, is the first RCT. Methods: Between June, 2013 and May, 2017, 224 patients scheduled for PD were enrolled in this study in Wakayama Medical University Hospital. Enrolled patients were randomized to either interrupted suture or modified Blumgart mattress suture. The primary endpoint was the incidence of grade B/C POPF based on the International Study Group on Pancreatic Fistula criteria. This RCT was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT01898780). Results: Patients were randomized to either interrupted suture (103 patients) or modified Blumgart mattress suture (107 patients) and were analyzed by intention-to-treat. Grade B/C POPF occurred in 7 patients (6.8%) in the interrupted suture group and 11 (10.3%) in the mattress suture group (P = 0.367). Mortality within 90 days was 0 in both groups. There were no significant differences in all postoperative complications between the interrupted suture group and the modified Blumgart mattress suture group. Conclusions: Mattress suture of pancreatic parenchyma and the jejunal seromuscular layer during PJ (modified Blumgart technique) did not reduce clinically relevant POPF compared with interrupted suture.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of pylorus resection on postoperative delayed gastric emptying (DGE) after partial pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). BACKGROUND PD is the standard treatment for tumors of the pancreatic head. Preservation of the pylorus has been widely accepted as standard procedure. DGE is a common complication causing impaired oral intake, prolonged hospital stay, and postponed further treatment. Recently, pylorus resection has been shown to reduce DGE. METHODS Patients undergoing PD for any indication at the University of Heidelberg were randomized to either PD with pylorus preservation (PP) or PD with pylorus resection and complete stomach preservation (PR). The primary endpoint was DGE within 30 days according to the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery definition. RESULTS Ninety-five patients were randomized to PP and 93 patients to PR. There were no baseline imbalances between the groups. Overall, 53 of 188 patients (28.2%) developed a DGE (grade: A 15.5%; B 8.8%; C 3.3%). In the PP group 24 of 95 patients (25.3%) and in the PR group 29 of 93 patients (31.2%) developed DGE (odds ratio 1.534, 95% confidence interval 0.788 to 2.987; P = 0.208). Higher BMI, indigestion, and intraabdominal major complications were significant risk factors for DGE. CONCLUSIONS In this randomized controlled trial, pylorus resection during PD did not reduce the incidence or severity of DGE. The development of DGE seems to be multifactorial rather than attributable to pyloric dysfunction alone. Pylorus preservation should therefore remain the standard of care in PD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is a critical complication after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Antecolic gastrojejunostomy has long been adopted as standard procedure because it is thought to reduce DGE. However, we have used retrocolic gastrojejunostomy (retro-GJ) for more than 10 years and have not observed high DGE rates. We aimed to clarify whether our retro-GJ approach produced comparable outcomes in preventing DGE. METHODS A total of 211 patients who underwent pylorus-resecting PD with retro-GJ at our institution between 2005 and 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. The incidence rate of DGE and the length of postoperative hospital stay were assessed. RESULTS The overall incidence of DGE with our retro-GJ procedure was 13% (n = 28), and the rate of clinically relevant DGE (grade B or C based on the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery criteria) was 4% (n = 8). The median postoperative hospital stay was 17 days (interquartile range, 13-25 days). Major complications (Clavien-Dindo grade ≥III) occurred in 37% (n = 79) of patients and were not associated with the occurrence of clinically relevant DGE (P = 0.47). CONCLUSIONS Our retro-GJ approach after PD with gastrojejunostomy, which involves careful positioning at the left-sided inframesocolic point, satisfactorily prevents DGE.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) occurs commonly following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), but the rate of DGE in the absence of other intra-abdominal complications is poorly understood. The objectives of this study were to define the incidence of DGE and identify risk factors for DGE in patients without pancreatic fistula or other intra-abdominal infections. METHODS Retrospective cohort study utilizing the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program pancreatectomy variables to identify patients with DGE following PD without evidence of fistula or intra-abdominal infection. Multivariable models were developed to assess preoperative, intraoperative, and technical factors associated with DGE. RESULTS The rate of DGE was 11.7% in 10502 cases without pancreatic fistula or intra-abdominal infection. Patients were more likely to develop DGE if age ≥75 (odds ratio [OR], 1.22; P = 0.003), male (OR, 1.29; P < 0.001), underwent pylorus-sparing PD (OR, 1.27; P = 0.004), or had a prolonged operative time (OR, 1.38 if greater than seven vs less than 5 hours; P = 0.005). Factors not associated with DGE included BMI, pathologic indication, and surgical approach. CONCLUSION The incidence of DGE after PD is notable even in patients without other abdominal complications. Identification of patients at increased risk for DGE may aid patient counseling as well as decisions regarding surgical technique, enteral feeding access, and enhanced-recovery pathways.

Abstract
Background Pancreatic cancer (PC) has poorer prognosis and higher surgical invasiveness than many other cancers, with associated psychiatric symptoms including depression and anxiety. Perioperative depression has not been investigated in PC patients regarding surgical stress and relevant interventions. Methods We evaluated chronological depressive changes and subjective physical symptoms in surgically treated PC patients preoperatively and at 3 and 6 months postoperatively. Enrolled patients undergoing pancreatic tumor surgery completed questionnaires based on the Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy for Patients with Hepatobiliary Cancer (FACT-Hep) preoperatively, and at 3 and 6 months postoperatively. Responses were analyzed with JMP® Pro using one-way and two-way ANOVA, Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis. Results Malignancy was diagnosed in 73 of 101 patients postoperatively; SDS score was significantly higher in these patients than in those with benign tumors at all timepoints: malignant/benign, 41.8/37.9 preoperatively (p = 0.004); 43.5/37.8 3 months postoperatively (p = 0.006); and 42.9/37.7 6 months postoperatively (p = 0.020). SDS scores were significantly higher in patients < 65 years old with malignancy at 3 months than at 6 months postoperatively (44.6/42.5, p = 0.046) and in patients with malignancy who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy at 3 months postoperatively than preoperatively (43.4/41.1; p = 0.028). SDS scores moderately correlated with 8 physical symptom-related FACT-Hep items 3 months postoperatively (p < 0.05), showing low-to-moderate correlation with 16 physical symptom-related FACT-Hep items at 6 months postoperatively (p < 0.05). Multiple regression analysis of FACT-Hep symptoms significantly correlated with SDS scores revealed the following significant variables: “lack of energy” (p < 0.000) and “pain” (p = 0.018) preoperatively (R2 = 0.43); “able to perform usual activities” (p = 0.031) and “lack of energy” (p < 0.000) at 3 months postoperatively (R2 = 0.51); and “stomach swelling or cramps” (p = 0.034) and “bowel control” (p = 0.049) at 6 months postoperatively (R2 = 0.52). Conclusions PC patients experience persistently high levels of depression preoperatively through 6 months postoperatively, with associated subjective symptoms including pain and gastrointestinal symptoms.
