Postoperative white blood cell counts change after pancreatoduodenectomy: Early sign for pancreatic fistula [PDF]
Purpose: Pancreatic surgery is challenging and associated with high morbidity. Therefore, it is important to detect it early before it becomes clinically apparent. The white blood cell (WBC) count useful as a predictive marker of postoperative pancreatic

EARLY DRAIN FLUID AMYLASE IS USEFUL TO PREDICT PANCREATIC FISTULA AFTER PANCREATODUODENECTOMY: LESSONS LEARNED FROM A SOUTHERN BRAZILIAN CENTER [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Pancreatic fistula represents the most feared complication after pancreatoduodenectomies, being the major responsible for the high morbidity and mortality after this operation. Its incidence remains around 10% to 30%.

Suture versus stapler in distal pancreatectomy and its impact on postoperative pancreatic fistula [PDF]
Postoperative pancreatic fistula is a critical complication after distal pancreatectomy. The aim of this systematic review is to assess new reports on the main pancreatic stump closure techniques (stapler and hand-sewn suture) in distal pancreatectomy ...

The management of Pancreatic fistula Complicated by Gastric fistulation following Emergency Splenectomy [PDF]
Pancreatic and gastric fistulas are rare complications of emergency splenectomy, and it is extremely rare for a pancreatic fistula to be further complicated by a fistulation into the stomach.

Pancreatic duct size and gland texture are associated with pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy but not after distal pancreatectomy. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Pancreatic fistula remains a morbid complication after pancreatectomy. Since the proposed mechanism of pancreatic fistula is different between pancreaticoduodenectomy and distal pancreatectomy, we hypothesized that pancreatic gland texture and
