Abstrakt: Objectives: The clinical significance of the highest drain fluid amylase (DFA) level beyond pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) postoperative day three (POD 3) remains unclear. This study investigated the impact of highest DFA level beyond POD 3 on postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) severity and outcomes of patients undergoing PD with POPF.
Methods: Patient demographics of biochemical POPF and clinically relevant POPF (CR-POPF) were compared. Predictive factors were assessed using binary logistic regression. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was performed to determine the optimal cutoff value of highest DFA (beyond POD 3). We compared length of hospital stay, surgical mortality rates, and need for postoperative interventions by highest DFA level.
Results: Patients with CR-POPF had an older age (p = 0.039), required intraoperative blood transfusion (p = 0.006), and had greater highest DFA levels (p = 0.001) than those with biochemical POPF. The optimal highest DFA cutoff was 2014.5 U/L. Multivariate analysis showed that percentage of patients with intraoperative blood transfusion (p = 0.011; odds ratio, 3.716) and a highest DFA > 2014.5 U/L beyond POD 3 (p = 0.001; odds ratio, 5.722) was predictive of CR-POPF.
Conclusion: Highest DFA > 2014.5 U/L beyond POD 3 is an independent predictor for CR-POPF. At a highest DFA >2014.5 U/L, 30-day surgical mortality rate, length of stay, and need for postoperative interventions did not differ.
