The study revealed that the incidence of pancreatic fistula was similar in both the continuous and interrupted suture groups of pancreaticojejunostomy. Continuous suture group had shorter operative time, less damage, fewer knots and less tension than interrupted sutures. Therefore, we concluded that the continuous suture method is feasible and safe to apply to reconstructing pancreaticojejunostomy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
