External Drainage Versus Internal Drainage of Pancreatic Duct With a Stent After Pancreaticoduodenectomy (EDIDPD)

Phase 2
Conditions
Postoperative Fistula
Complications of Surgical and Medical Care: General Terms
Registration Number
NCT01634971
Lead Sponsor
Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital
Brief Summary

Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) and other surgical complications are common after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) and POPF is a major complication. The drainage of pancreatic duct is important and a stent is usually placed in the operation, but it is still controversial whether the stent drainage is internal or external.

Detailed Description

The current study is to compare the rate of Postoperative pancreatic fistula(POPF) and other surgical complications after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD).
