Clinical study of pancreaticoenterostomy by separating and continuous suture in pancreatoduodenectomy / 中华胰腺病杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effects of pancreaticoenterostomy by separating and continuous suture on pancreatoduodenectomy.Methods The clinical data of 76 patients who underwent curative pancreaticoduodenectomy from March 2002 to October 2014 in Tumor Hospital of Zhengzhou University were retrospectively analyzed.Of all the patients,43 received pancreaticoenterostomy by separating and continuous suture (study group),and the other 33 patients received BPJ anastomosis (control group).All the patients used Child reconstruction,the diagnosis of pancreatic fistula was made according to ISGPF criteria.The operation time of pancreaticoenterostomy,the incidence of hemorrhage of anastomosis and the incidence of pancreatic fistula were retrospectively analyzed.Results The age,sex,hemoglobin,albumin,total bilirubin,the incidence of co-morbidity of diabetes,extent of surgical resection between 2 groups were comparable without significant difference.In study group,the time of pancreaticoenterostomy was 11 min(8 ～ 15 min),there were 4 patients with class Ⅰ pancreatic fistula,and 1 patient with class Ⅱ pancreatic fistula.No patient developed class Ⅲ pancreatic fistula or anastomotic bleeding.In control group,the time of pancreaticoenterostomy was 16 min(12 ～25 min) which was only available for 5 patients,and no records for other patients.There were 6 patients with pancreatic fistula including 4 patients with class Ⅱ,2 patients with class Ⅲ,while no records for class Ⅰ.Four patients were found to have anastomotic bleeding.Conclusions With the pancreaticoenterostomy by separating and continuous suture method,the surgical field is fully exposed,the suture time is shortened and the incidence of anastomotic bleeding and pancreatic fistula is reduced.
