Aims
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs) are increasingly being treated with neoadjuvant therapy. However, the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 8th edition T staging based on tumour size does not reflect treatment effect, which often results in multiple, small foci of residual tumour in a background of mass‐forming fibrosis. Thus, we evaluated the performance of AJCC 8th edition T...
Background and Aim
Implications of preoperative biliary drain on morbidity and mortality after pancreatoduodenectomy are still controversial. The present study aims to assess the impact of preoperative biliary drain on postoperative outcome and to define optimal serum bilirubin cut‐off to recommend biliary drainage in patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy.
Methods
All consecutive pancreatoduodenectomies...
Despite improvements in perioperative care, mortality and morbidity rates associated with pancreatic operation still reach 2% and >50%, respectively. Infectious complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy occur in about one-third of the cases. The aim of the study is to define the real burden of infectious complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy and to analyze the risk factors associated with...
