About this study

Official title: Factors Influencing the Occurrence of Pancreatic Fistula After Minimally Invasive Pancreatic Enucleation and Predictive Models: a Prospective Cohort Study

Patients suffering from postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after minimally invasive enucleation (MIEN) show a characteristic pattern of longer duration and milder symptoms, which is different from pancreatic fistula after standard pancreatectomy. This study aimed to analyze the factors influencing clinically-relevant POPF (CR-POPF) after MIEN, investigate and develop a personalized predictive model for accurate prediction of CR-POPF.

Read the detailed description

Minimally invasive enucleation (MIEN) has been widely used in managing benign and low-grade malignant pancreatic tumors, showing better protection of pancreatic function and better long-term outcomes compared to standard pancreatectomy.

However, the incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after MIEN is higher compared to standard resection, mainly since a large part of the pancreatic wound is exposed, and the main pancreatic duct may be exposed or injured, etc. POPF is the most important postoperative complication, and it has become a major constraint to the conduct of pancreatic MIEN.

Although risk factors and predictive models for POPF in standard pancreatic surgery have been reported in the past, no predictive models have been reported specifically for MEN. With the increasing adoption of MIEN, there is an urgent need for a predictive model to guide the treatment and prognosis of POPF. Therefore, this study aims to conduct a cohort study, with data prospectively collected and retrospectively analyzed. The result of this study will provide a valuable reference for the development and application of MIEN.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT06557408
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Minimally invasive enucleation cohortSurgical approaches to minimally invasive enucleation include laparoscopic or robotic-assisted procedures. During surgery, intraoperative ultrasonography is used to verify the position of the tumour in relation to the main pancreatic duct to ensure that injury to the main pancreatic duct is avoided and to help identify tumours within the pancreatic parenchyma. If injury to the main pancreatic duct is unavoidable, suture repair or bridging reconstruction techniques are used. If intraoperative freezing reveals the presence of high-grade dysplasia or invasive cancer, the procedure is converted to an oncological resection.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of Clinically Relevant Postoperative Pancreatic Fistula

    Clinically Relevant Pancreatic Fistula including Grade B fistulas, which require treatment beyond simple drainage, as well as Grade C fistulas.

    Measured: Within 90 days after surgery.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Perioperative complication rate according to the Clavien-Dindo classification

    Adverse events occurring during or after surgery reported according to the Clavien-Dindo classification.

    Measured: Within 90 days after surgery.
