Application Analysis of Omental Flap Isolation and Modified Pancreaticojejunostomy in Pancreaticoduodenectomy (175 Cases)

Abstract

Background: To explore the application value of free omentum wrapping and modified pancreaticojejunostomy in pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD).Methods: The clinical data of 175 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy from January 2015 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were divided into 86 cases in group A (omental wrapping and modified pancreaticojejunostomy) and 89 cases in group B (control group). The incidence of pancreatic fistula and other related complications, inflammatory factors and survival rate were compared between the two groups.Results: The incidences of B/C pancreatic fistula, bile leakage, delayed bleeding, and reoperation in group A were lower than those in group B, and the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05). The free omentum wrapping isolation and the modified pancreaticojejunostomy group drainage tube extubation time, open diet time and postoperative hospital stay were earlier than the control group (P <0.05). There were also statistically significant differences in CRP, IL-6, PCT inflammatory factors 1, 3, and 7 days after surgery as well as in postoperative survival rate.Univariate analysis showed that BMI, pancreatic duct diameter, greater omental flap isolation and modified pancreaticojejunostomy were related to the occurrence of pancreatic fistula after PD. Multivariate analysis showed that BMI≥24, pancreatic duct diameter less than 3mm, no greater omental flap isolation method and modified pancreaticojejunostomy were independent risk factors for pancreatic fistula (P<0.05).Conclusions: Wrapping and isolating with free greater omentum plus modified pancreaticojejunostomy can significantly reduce the incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula and related complications, inhibit the development of inflammation, and is conducive to the prognosis.
