RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the effect of the duration of preoperative biliary drainage on postoperative complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods:The clinical data of 102 patients with benign and malignant hepatopancreatic ductal periampullary tumors who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy and preoperative biliary drainage in Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2016 to July 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the median duration of preoperative biliary drainage, the patients were divided into short-term drainage group (≤ the median duration of biliary drainage) and long-term drainage group (> the median duration of biliary drainage). The general data, the effect of biliary drainage, inflammation-related indicators and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression was used to screen the risk factors related to the postoperative severe complications.Results:Of the 102 patients, 68 (66.7%) were males and 34 (33.3%) were females, with a median age of 63 years (43-80 years). The median duration of preoperative biliary drainage was 14 d. There were 68 patients in short-term drainage group and 34 patients in long-term drainage group. There were no statistically significant differences in age, gender, body mass index (BMI), hypertension, diabetes mellitus, surgery history of upper abdominal, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) grade, carcinoembryonic antigen, carbohydrate antigen 125, alpha-fetoprotein, prothrombin time, pancreaticojejunostomy method, operation time, and pathological type between the two groups (all P > 0.05). However, patients in long-term drainage group had higher conversion rate, more blood loss and longer hospital stay compared with those in short-term drainage group (all P < 0.05). Before biliary drainage, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) level in short-term drainage group was higher than that in long-term drainage group ( Z = -2.59, P = 0.009), and there were no statistically significant differences in aspartate aminotransferase (AST), albumin (ALB), total bilirubin (TB) and direct bilirubin (DB) levels between the two groups before biliary drainage (all P > 0.05). After biliary drainage, DB in short-term drainage group was higher than that in long-term drainage group ( Z = -3.34, P = 0.001), and there was no statistically significant difference in ALT, AST, ALB, TB levels between the two groups (all P > 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the levels of white blood cells, neutrophils, lymphocytes and the ratio of neutrophils to lymphocytes between the two groups on the 1st and 3rd day after the operation (all P > 0.05). The total incidence of postoperative related complications in short-term drainage group and long-term drainage group was 63.2% (43/68), 70.6% (24/34), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 0.54, P = 0.461); the incidences of bile leakage, abdominal or gastrointestinal bleeding, intra-abdominal infection, delayed gastric emptying, all grades of pancreatic leakage, grade B and C pancreatic leakage were not statistically different between the two groups (all P > 0.05); the incidence of severe postoperative related complications in short-term drainage group was higher than that in long-term drainage group [27.9% (19/68) vs. 8.8% (3/34), χ2 = 4.90, P = 0.027]. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the long-term preoperative biliary drainage was an independent protective factor for postoperative severe complications (long-term drainage vs. short-term drainage: OR = 0.253, 95% CI 0.066-0.975, P = 0.046), while BMI ( OR = 1.174, 95% CI 0.986-1.398, P = 0.071) and pathological type (benign or borderline vs. malignant tumor: OR = 0.247, 95% CI 0.043-1.419, P = 0.117) were not independent influencing factors for postoperative severe complications. Conclusions:Short-term biliary drainage (≤14 d) is a risk factor for postoperative severe complications in patients with hepatopancreatic ductal periampullary tumor undergoing preoperative biliary drainage. Preoperative biliary drainage time is not associated with postoperative total complications, pancreatic leakage, bile leakage, abdominal or gastrointestinal bleeding, intra-abdominal infection, delayed gastric emptying.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the influencing of preoperative biliary drainage on surgery-related complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods:The retrospective case-control study was conducted. The clinical data of 267 patients with periampullary space-occupying lesion who were admitted to Beijing Friendship Hospital of Capital Medical University from January 2016 to July 2020 were collected. There were 166 males and 101 females, aged 61 (range, 54?84)years. Observation indicators: (1) comparison of preoperative situations in patients with and without preoperative biliary drainage; (2) comparison of intraoperative and postoperative situations in patients with and without preoperative biliary drainage; (3) methods and efficacy of preoperative biliary drainage; (4) factors influencing surgery-related complications after pancreaticoduodenec-tomy. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(rang) or M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Univariate analysis was conducted using the corresponding statistical methods based on data type. Multivariate analysis was conducted using the Logistic stepwise regression model. Results:(1) Comparison of preoperative situations in patients with and without preoperative biliary drainage. Of the 267 patients, there were 104 cases with preoperative biliary drainage and 163 cases without preoperative biliary drainage. Cases with malignant tumor, cases with borderline tumor, cases with chronic pancreatitis were 89, 13, 2 in patients with preoperative biliary drainage, versus 111, 41, 11 in patients without preoperative biliary drainage, showing significant differences in pathology type between them ( χ2=10.652, P<0.05). (2) Comparison of intraoperative and postoperative situations in patients with and without preoperative biliary drainage. There was no significant difference in operation time, volume of intra-operative blood loss, postoperative complications, grade B pancreatic fistula, grade C pancreatic fistula, biliary leakage, abdominal or gastrointestinal bleeding, incidence of abdominal infection, white blood cell count at postoperative day 1, white blood cell count at postoperative day 3, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio at postoperative day 1, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio at postoperative day 3, C-reactive protein-albumin ratio at postoperative day 1, C-reactive protein-albumin ratio at post-operative day 3, duration of hospital stay between the 104 patients with preoperative biliary drainage and the 163 patients without preoperative biliary drainage ( P>0.05). (3) Methods and efficacy of preoperative biliary drainage. Of the 104 patients with preoperative biliary drainage, there were 40 cases receiving endoscopic nasobiliary drainage with drainage time as (12±2)days, there were 38 cases receiving percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage with drainage time as (7±1)days, and there were 26 cases receiving endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage with drainage time as (19±2)days. The total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, aspartate transaminase, alanine aminotrans-ferase in 104 patients were (223±18)μmol/L, (134±11)μmol/L, (112±10)U/L, (160±16)U/L before biliary drainage and (144±13)μmol/L, (84±8)μmol/L, (79±8)U/L, (109±12)U/L after biliary drainage, showing significant differences in the above indicators ( t=3.544, 3.608, 2.523, 2.509, P<0.05). (4) Factors influencing surgery-related complications after pancreatocoduodenectomy. Results of multi-variate analysis showed that operation time was an independent factor influencing surgery-related complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy ( odds ratio=1.005, 95% confidence interval as 1.002?1.008, P<0.05). Conclusions:Preoperative biliary drainage does not increase the incidence of complications related to pancreaticoduodenectomy in patients with periampullary space-occupying lesion. Operation time is an independent factor influencing postoperative surgery-related complications.
RESUMEN
Objective:To analyze the incidence of gallstone formation after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) by meta-analysis.Methods:English terms for this meta-analysis included "bariatric surgery, gastric bypass, Roux-n-Y gastric bypass, RYGB, sleeve gastrectomy, SG, cholelithiasis, cholecystectomy, gallstone". Researched articles in Pubmed, Medline and Embase databases were searched up to February 2023 and retrieved for further analysis. The quality of each article was evaluated with Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). Generated data were analyzed with Revman 5.4.Results:Nine relevant cohort studies were retrieved for this meta-analysis, including a total of 24 255 RYGB patients and 4 500 SG patients. All articles met the requirements after the quality evaluation of NOS. The meta-analysis results showed that the incidence of postoperative gallstones in RYGB group was higher than that in SG group ( P<0.001). In subgroup analysis, by administering ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) for gallstone prevention, the incidence had no difference between the two groups ( P=0.090), while in the study without UDCA, the incidence of gallstones after RYGB was higher than SG ( P=0.005). In the studies with follow-up time no more than 24 months, the incidence of postoperative gallstones in RYGB group was higher than that in SG group ( P=0.050), but there was no statistical difference when following-up beyond 24 months ( P=0.240). Conclusions:Within 2 years after surgery, RYGB patients have more chances to develop gallstones than SG patients. However, beyond 2-year follow-up, there is no difference between the two procedures. Prophylactical utilization of UDCA after RYGB can effectively reduce the incidence of gallstone formation.
