Patients with locally advanced pancreatic body/tail tumors, gastric cancer, or colon cancer often have contiguous organ involvement requiring extensive pancreatic resection. This study was performed t...
In total, 128 patients who underwent DP from January 2012 to January 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Extended DP was defined according to the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery defini...
Of the 128 patients, 62 (48.4%) underwent extended DP and 66 (51.6%) underwent DP. Blood loss was greater (p < 0.001), the incidence of major complications was higher (p = 0.032), and the hospital sta...
Extended DP can be performed with comparable CR-POPF occurrence and mortality but increased morbidity when compared with standard DP....
Post-pancreatectomy acute pancreatitis (PPAP) is a recently identified clinical condition characterized by sustained elevated serum amylase levels for at least 48 h post-operatively, consistent radiol...
This retrospective single-center observational study included consecutive patients 18 years or older who underwent DP at Karolinska University Hospital between 2008 and 2020. The two serum amylase lev...
Of the 403 patients who underwent DP, 14% (n = 58) had sustained elevated serum amylase levels according to PPAP criteria, and 31% (n = 126) had transiently elevated serum amylase levels on either POD...
These findings indicate that PPAP after DP is rare and that computed tomography has limited usability for diagnosing PPAP. The findings also suggest that transiently elevated serum amylase may be an e...
Robotic central pancreatectomy (CP) has emerged in recent years as a noninferior approach to open CP and may offer improved patient-reported outcomes and reduction in incisional hernias....
All patients who underwent open and robotic CP between (2013 and 2022) were selected, and perioperative outcomes were analyzed. Patients who underwent robotic CP were interviewed over the phone to ass...
A total of 18 CP operations (56%-open vs. 44%-robotic) were identified. The overall median age was 67 years (interquartile range: 60-72), and 50% (n = 9) of patients were female. Median length of surg...
With the exception of longer operative times, robotic CP is a noninferior, definitive resection technique for select lesions of the middle pancreas. Additionally, the robotic approach may result in a ...
Long term quality of life is becoming increasingly crucial as survival following partial pancreatectomy rises. The purpose of this study was to investigate the difference in glucose dysregulation afte...
In this prospective observational study from 2015 to 2018, 224 patients who underwent partial pancreatectomy were selected: 152 (67.9%) received PD and 72 (32.1%) received DP. Comprehensive assessment...
The disposition index, an integrated measure of β-cell function, decreased 1 week after surgery in both groups, but it increased more than baseline level in the PD group while its decreased level was ...
Proactive surveillance of glucose dysregulation is advised, particularly for patients who receive DP....
Central pancreatectomy (CP) can be performed as an alternative surgical approach to distal pancreatectomy (DP) in the treatment of benign or low-grade malignant lesions located in the neck and body of...
Patients who received CP in a large tertiary care pancreatic surgery center between 2001 and 2020 were identified from a prospectively maintained database and compared via propensity score matching wi...
One hundred and seven patients undergoing open CP were compared to 107 patients with open DP. No significant difference in rates or severity of most surgical complications could be found including pos...
CP offers an improved endocrine long-term outcome at the expense of a higher risk of PPH without increased perioperative mortality. As evidence on this parenchyma sparing surgical technique is sparse,...
The incidence of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) after central pancreatectomy (CP) is high, yet an effective predictive method is currently lacking. This study aimed to ...
A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients undergoing CP at our institution between January 2010 and July 2022. The primary outcome was CR-POPF (grade B/C) according to the 2016 International ...
A total of 115 patients undergoing CP were included. Among them, 38 (33%) were male, with a median age of 53 years. CR-POPF occurred in 35 (30.4%) patients, specifically 33 (28.7%) with grade B and 2 ...
The derived C-FRS models show potential for accurately predicting the development of CR-POPF after CP. However, further validation studies are required to determine the most effective model. In the me...
Total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation is a therapeutic option to effectively achieve pain relief and improvements in quality of life for selected patients with debilitating pain from chr...
Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (LDP) and laparoscopic central pancreatectomy (LCP) are two surgical methods that can remove pancreatic neck lesions. However, their benefits remain controversial. W...
In total, 50 patients who underwent LDP (n = 34) or LCP (n =16) between January 2014 and November 2019 were retrospectively reviewed using our database. We analyzed their preoperative characteristics,...
The baseline features of patients did not differ significantly between the two groups (P < 0.05). Compared with the LDP group, the LCP group showed significantly prolonged operation time (392 ± 144 vs...
Compared with the LCP, LDP is a useful and safer technique for benign or low-grade malignant tumors in the pancreatic neck....
Minimally invasive (MI) surgery has been widely adopted to treat left-sided pancreatic cancer. However, outcomes are not clearly defined....
Retrospective cohort study utilizing NCDB and NSQIP data....
Patients undergoing distal pancreatectomy for pancreatic adenocarcinoma from 2004 to 2016 were included (n = 7347). Utilizing NSQIP (n = 2406), patients were divided into two groups: intention-to-trea...
Based on these data, MI distal pancreatectomy could be considered a standard of care for pancreatic cancer when technically feasible. Although morbidity and mortality were similar, the laparoscopic ap...
Distal pancreatectomy (DP) is currently well established as a minimally invasive surgery (MIS) procedure, using either a laparoscopic (LDP) or robotic (RDP) approach....
Out of 83 DP performed between January 2018 and March 2022, 57 cases (68.7%) were performed using MIS: 35 LDP and 22 RDP (da Vinci Xi). We have assessed the experience with the two techniques and anal...
The mean operative times for LDP and RDP were 201.2 (SD 47.8) and 247.54 (SD 35.8) minutes, respectively (P = NS). No differences were observed in length of hospital stay or conversion rate: 6 (5-34) ...
Minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy (MIDP) is a safe and feasible procedure in selected patients. Surgical planning and stepwise implementation based on prior experience help surgeons successfull...
