Abstract:
Objective To investigate the pathogenesis of diagnosis and treatment for delayed gastric emptying(DGE) after pancreaticoduodenectomy(PD).Methods The clinical data of 226 patients admitted between 1983 and 2001 undergoing PD were retrospectively analysed.Results In 226 PD cases DGE was observed in 62 patients(27.4%). Patients with DGE had longer duration of nasogastric tube drainage(21 days vs. 5.6 days).All patients were treated by non-operative methods. The average recovery time was 21 days.Conclusions It is emphasized that DGE has been associated with several factors, including preoperative status of diabetes, bowel obstruction, and jaundice,and postoperative pancreatic fistula, intra-abdominal abscess. Octreotide administration had no relation with the occurrence of DGE.
