Abstract:
BACKGROUND/AIMS: The death rates of pancreaticoduodenectomy decreased dramatically in experienced centers and it depends on many variability including nutritional status, better patient selection, hospital volume. We reviewed our experience of 100 pancreaticoduodenectomy for 10 years, 1000 beds hospital METHOD: Between 1990 and 2000, 100 patients underwent a pancreaticoduodenectomy in Dong-A University hospital. Annual number of cases, the disease entity, operative procedures, operation time and transfusion, radicality, external or internal pancreatic stent methods, morbidity and mortality were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS: 10 cases or less per year until 1998: thereafter, the number of cases increased reaching 24 cases per year recently. Diseases entities were 35 pancreas head carcinomas, 22 common bile duct carcinomas, 20 ampulla vater carcinomas, 8 duodenum carcinomas, 9 chronic pancreatitis, 3 gallbladder carcinomas etc. Operative procedures were 53 whipple's operations, 23 Total pancreaticoduodenectomy, 22 pylorus preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy, 2 hepatopancreaticoduodenectomy. Postoperative morbidity has been decreasing, however, pancreatic leakage is still unresolved problem. Under 10 case annually the overall mortality was 22%, over 15 case annually the mortality reduced 12%(P=0.242). There were no mortality consecutive 30 cases since June, 1999 after changing the internal pancreatic duct stent to external pancreatic duct stent with preoperative total parenteral nutrition, Indocyanine green (ICG) test. The death rate was reduced(P=0.156). CONCLUSION: Pancreaticoduodenectomy has been increasing due to increased incidence of indication and improved resectability. Also preoperative total parenteral nutrition, ICG test, external pancreatic duct stent, successful postoperative embolization techniques decreased mobidity & mortality. It was suggested, pancreaticoduodenectomy could be safely performed in centers with more than 15 pancreatoduodenectomy annually.
