  • Ages 15 to 70 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: This is a retrospective cohort study of all patients who underwent PD for periampullary malignant lesions in the duration between January 2000 and May 2018. Preoperative assessment was performed by clinical examination and detailed laboratory investigations. Assessment of local extension of the tumor and metastatic work-up was performed by pelvi-abdominal ultrasound (US), triphasic abdominal computerized tomography (CT) with angiographic assessment of the surrounding vessels, bone survey, and chest X-ray. Preoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) for preoperative biliary drainage was performed in selected cases

Who may be able to join

  • all patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy for periampullary malignant lesions in the duration between January 2000 and May 2018

Who cannot join

  • Pancreaticoduodenectomy performed for benign tumors, recurrent malignant tumors, chronic pancreatitis, or inflammatory strictures were excluded from the study.

About this study

Official title: Surgical Intervention After Pancreaticoduodenectomy: Incidence, Indications, Risk Factors and Outcome

The aim of this study is to outline the incidence of early and late reoperation after PD, examine the risk factors for early surgical intervention and its impact on the surgical outcome, hospital stay, diseases recurrence and patient survival, address variable indications for late readmission and reoperation after PD and its impact on patient survival and disease recurrence.

Read the detailed description

This is a retrospective cohort study of all patients who underwent PD for periampullary tumors in Gastrointestinal Surgical Center (GISC), Mansoura University, Egypt in the period between 2000 and 2018.The exclusion criteria included any patients with locally advanced periampullary tumor, metastases, patients with advanced liver cirrhosis (Child B or C), malnutrition, or coagulopathy.

Patient data were recorded in a prospectively maintained database. Preoperative variables included; age, sex, body mass index, patients' symptoms and signs, laboratory tests, tumor markers and preoperative biliary drainage. Intraoperative variables included; liver status, tumor size, pancreatic duct diameter, texture of the pancreas, operative time, blood loss, pancreatic reconstruction method and blood transfusion. Postoperative variables included postoperative complications, drain amylase, liver function, day to resume oral feeding, postoperative stay, re-exploration, hospital mortality, postoperative pathology, and surgical safety margins.

Data regarding reoperation included incidence, male to female ratio, hospital stay, interval to reoperation, number of explorations, indication of reoperation and surgical management, and postoperative outcome in terms of morbidity and hospital stay. Follow-up was carried out one week postoperatively, 3 months, 6 months and then after one year. The minimum duration of follow up was 2 years. Follow up was done by thorough history taking, clinical examination and abdominal CT in case of suspicious lesions on pelvi-abdominal ultrasound.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Surgical re-interventionafter pancreaticoduodenectomyProcedure or surgery

    Mandatory surgical management of complications after pancreatico-duodenectomy through peritoneal lavage, draiange, repair of fistula, completion pancreatectomy, control of bleeding, bowel resection, and feeding jejunostomy.

Study groups in NCT04387903
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Reoperation groupThe group of patients who underwent pancreaticduodenectomy for management of periampullary tumors and required surgical reintervention afterwards for management of procedure-related complications as pancreatic fistula, bleeding, abdominal collection, biliary fistula, gastric fistula.
Receives: Procedure: Surgical re-interventionafter pancreaticoduodenectomy
No reoperation groupThe group of patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy for management of periampullary tumors and did not require surgical reintervention.
Receives: Procedure: Surgical re-interventionafter pancreaticoduodenectomy

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Patient survival

    The duration between surgical intervention to patient death

    Measured: 2-20 years after surgery

  2. Tumor recurrence

    Duration between surgery and recurrence of periampullary tumors based on radiological or endoscopic investigations.

    Measured: 2-20 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Hospital stay after reoperation

    duration between reoperation surgery to discharge from hospital

    Measured: 10-90 days after reoperation

  2. Morbidity after reoperation

    complications after reoperation including intr- or extra-luminal hemorrhage, pancreatic or gastric fistula, biliary leakage, thromboembolic diseases, and wound infection

    Measured: 10-90 days after reoperation

  3. Risk factors for surgical reoperation

    Factors that increase the probability that the patient undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy would be at higher risk for reoperation

    Measured: Before surgical intervention

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Periampullary Carcinoma and Pancreatic Cancer, run by Mansoura University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 May 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Patient survival (time frame: 2-20 years after surgery). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 May 2020.
