Comparative Study Between Duct to Mucosa and Invagination Pancreaticojejunostomy After Pancreaticoduodenectomy:

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Pancreatic Anastomotic Leak

• Registration Number: NCT02142517
• Lead Sponsor: Mansoura University

Brief Summary

Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) remains a challenge even at specialized centers, and also affect significantly the surgical outcomes . The incidence of POPF after pancreaticoduodenectomy among different studies, ranging from 5 to 30%.Morbidity and mortality after pancreaticoduodenectomy are usually related to surgical management of the pancreatic stump. The safe pancreatic reconstruction after pancreaticoduodenectomy continues to be a challenge at high volume centers. The variety of reconstruction is a reflection of the lack of ideal one.Duct to mucosa and invagination are two classic PJ techniques. Many studies compared both techniques, but their surgical outcomes still unclear.The aim of the study was to assess the effectiveness and surgical outcomes of both techniques of PJ after pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Detailed Description

Consecutive patients who were treated by pancreaticoduodenectomy at Gastroenterology Surgical Center, Mansoura, Egypt Exclusion criteria included any patients with locally advanced periampullary tumour, metastases, patients received neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, patients underwent pancreaticogastrostomy (PG), patients with advanced liver cirrhosis (Child B or C), malnutrition, or coagulopathy.

All patients were subjected to careful history taking, clinical examination, routine laboratory investigation abdominal ultrasound, magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography , and abdominal computerized tomography .

The patients were randomized into two groups: Group I: patients underwent duct to mucosa PJ. Group II: patients underwent invagination PJ.

The primary outcome was POPF rate.Secondary outcomes were operative time, operative time needed for reconstruction, length of postoperative hospital stay, postoperative morbidities

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
POPF	up to 30 days	POPF was defined by International Study Group of Pancreatic Fistula (ISGPF) as any measurable volume of fluid on or after POD 3 with amylase content greater than 3 times the serum amylase activity . A pancreatic fistula (PF) were graded according to the ISGPF into Grade A, B, and C according to the clinical course

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
operative time	up to 10 hours	time of surgical procedure
hospital stay	up to 60 days	postoperative stay
postoperative complications	up to 90 days	delayed gastric emptying (DGE), pancreatitis, biliary leakage
Pancreatic function	up to one year	Pancreatic exocrine function was evaluated clinically. It was assessed by presence or absence of steatorrhae (more than three stool per day, fecal output of \> 200 g/d for at least three days, pale or yellow stools, and appearance of stools as pasty or greasy, the need of pancreatic enzymes supplement and studied variation in body weight pre and postoperative (
