Background: Pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) is one of the most technically demanding
operations challenging surgeons, and a postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) can …

Background Many studies have explored factors relating to post‐operative pancreatic fistula
(POPF); however, the original definition (All‐POPF) was revised to include only 'clinically …

Objective: The aim of this study was to develop a classification system for pancreas-
associated risk factors in pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). Summary Background Data …

Objective: The aim of this study was to develop an alternative fistula risk score (a-FRS) for
postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after pancreatoduodenectomy, without blood loss as …

BACKGROUND: Clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistulas (CR-POPF) are serious
inherent risks of pancreatic resection. Preoperative CR-POPF risk assessment is currently …

Objectives: To assess pancreatic fistula rate and secondary endpoints after
pancreatogastrostomy (PG) versus pancreatojejunostomy (PJ) for reconstruction in …

Objective: To develop and validate a simple prognostic score to predict major postoperative
complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Background: PD still carries a high rate …

METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of 539 successive cases of
pancreaticoduodenectomy performed at our hospital from March 2012 to October 2015 …

Background Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS®) pathways have reduced morbidity
and length of hospital stay (LOS) in orthopedics, bariatric, and colorectal surgery. New …

Abstract Background The Fistula Risk Score (FRS), a ten-point scale that relies on weighted
influence of four variables, has been shown to effectively predict clinically relevant …
