Abstract:
Objective To investigate the preventive effect of postoperative pancreatic leakage by continuous invaginated pancreaticoenterostomy in pancraticoduodenectomy. Methods Twenty-twopancraticoduodenectomy procedures were performed by continuous invaginated pancreaticoenterostomy with 4-0 absorbable suture and the results were compared with those of 12 end-to-side invagination interrupted suture procedures and 23 pancreatic duct jejunum anastomosis procedures. Results All continuous invaginated pancreaticoenterostomy cases were performed successfully with the average time of 13 minutes, and one biliary leak occurred postoperatively; and there was no pancreatic anastomotic leak and no death. The mean hospital stay of the patients was 15 days. While the mean time of end-to-side invagination interrupted suture procedures was 20 minutes, one biliary leak and one abdominal infection occurred, and one patient died of abdominal bleeding. The mean time of pancreatic duct jejunum anastomosis procedures was 18 minutes, and one pancreatic leak and one upper gastrointestinal bleeding occurred. The mean postoperative hospital stay of these patients was 19 days. Conclusions Continuous invaginated pancreaticoenterostomy is applicable to any situation in the residual pancreas, and has the advantages of easy to operate, time saving and less complications, thus it is an effective improvement of pancreaticoenterostomy.
