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. |
