Pasireotide administration after pancreaticoduodenectomy may decrease clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula in high-risk patients with small pancreatic ducts, soft pancreatic parenchyma and cystic or neuroendocrine neoplasia
Abstract
Post-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a feared complication after a pancreaticoduodenectomy. Previously in a randomized trial found fewer clinically relevant fistulas (CR-POPF) accompanying administration of perioperative pasireotide. Our hospital previously found that the risk for CR-POPF reached 7% in pancreaticoduodenectomy patients. Here, we aimed to determine the CR-POPF rate accompanying prophylactic pasireotide in patients with a...
