The present review summarises the currently available data on incidence, risk factors, fistula-associated complications and management of postoperative pancreatic fistula.
Abstract
Postoperative pancreatic fistula is an important complication after pancreatic resection. The frequency of its incidence varies between 3% after pancreatic head resections and up to 30% following distal pancreatectomy. In recent years, the international definition of pancreatic fistula has been standardised according to the approach of the International Study Group on Pancreatic Fistula (ISGPF). Consequently, results from different studies have become comparable and the historically reported fistula rates can be evaluated more critically. The present review summarises the currently available data on incidence, risk factors, fistula-associated complications and management of postoperative pancreatic fistula.

A prospectively validated clinical risk score accurately predicts pancreatic fistula after pancreatoduodenectomy.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a risk prediction tool for post-operative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) that features intraoperative assessment and reveals associated clinical and economic significance.

Short-term clinical outcomes for 100 consecutive cases of laparoscopic pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy: improvement with surgical experience

TL;DR: The LPPPD procedure is technically safe and feasible, with an acceptable rate of morbidity and other clinical outcomes for benign and malignant diseases, and clinical outcomes can be improved once a learning curve has been overcome.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Multi-Institutional External Validation of the Fistula Risk Score for Pancreatoduodenectomy

TL;DR: This multi-institutional experience confirms the Fistula Risk Score as a valid tool for predicting the development of CR-POPF after PD and is validated as a strongly predictive tool, with widespread applicability, which can be readily incorporated into common clinical practice and research analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systematic review of central pancreatectomy and meta-analysis of central versus distal pancreatectomy

TL;DR: The aim of this review was to evaluate the short‐ and long‐term surgical results of CP from all published studies, and the results of comparative studies of CP versus distal pancreatectomy (DP).

Postoperative pancreatic fistula: an international study group (ISGPF) definition.

TL;DR: In this article, an international panel of pancreatic surgeons, working in well-known, high-volume centers, reviewed the literature on the topic and worked together to develop a simple, objective, reliable, and easy-to-apply definition of postoperative pancreatic fistula, graded primarily on clinical impact.

Special article Postoperative pancreatic fistula: An international study group (ISGPF) definition

TL;DR: The present definition and clinical grading of POPF should allow realistic comparisons of surgical experiences in the future when new techniques, new operations, or new pharmacologic agents that may impact surgical treatment of pancreatic disorders are addressed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessment of complications after pancreatic surgery: A novel grading system applied to 633 patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy.

TL;DR: This novel approach may provide a standardized, objective, and reproducible assessment of pancreas surgery enabling meaningful comparison among centers and over time, and demonstrates the applicability and utility of a new classification in grading complications following pancreatic surgery.
