Popis: The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of preoperative acute obstructive pancreatitis on the risk of the occurrence of pancreatic fistula (PF) following pancreaticoduodenectomy. A total of 22 patients who developed postoperative PF were carefully matched with 22 control patients without PF according to demographic data, pancreatic pathology, presenting symptoms and other surgery-associated parameters. These parameters were compared between these two groups. The mean pancreatic apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values in the fistula group were 1.14±0.31×10(−3) mm(2)/s, which was significantly decreased compared with the non-fistula group (1.48±0.44×10(−3) mm(2)/s) (P=0.005). The pancreas-muscle signal intensity (SI) ratio on fat-suppressed T1 weighted image (rT1) in the fistula group was 1.71±0.25, which was significantly increased compared with the non-fistula group (1.25±0.29) (P
