The use of low dose octreotide prophylaxis in pancreatic transplants with enteric drainage. Results of a prospective randomized single center trial

Abstract: The use of octreotide following pancreas transplantation did not prevent pancreatic fistula formation from the anastomosis neither from the pancreatic capsule in pancreas transplantation with enteric drainage. Further studies are required to finally evaluate the benefit of this prophylactic treatment.

“…Considering drain placement and management after pancreatic resection, controversies have recently emerged from both randomized and nonrandomized clinical studies investigating the role of ID in increasing POPF and postoperative morbidity as well as prolonged hospital stay. Although some authors advocate early ID removal to prevent intra-abdominal infection, in clinical practice, surgically placed drains are usually removed at surgeon discretion once occurrence of POPF or other abdominal complications has been excluded [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11].…”
