Pancreatic ultrasound elastography is not useful to predict the risk of pancreatic fistulas after pancreatic resection.
Abstract
The clinical usefulness of pancreatic elastography (PE) in the assessment of the pancreatic texture before pancreatic resection still remains uncertain. The aims are: to evaluate the value of pancreatic stiffness in both healthy volunteers and patients affected by pancreatic tumor; to evaluate the ability of PE in predicting clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF). Pancreatic stiffness of healthy subjects was compared with...
