Abstract :

Post-operative pancreatic fistula (PF) is the most dangerous complication of pancreatic surgery. We developed a new pancreaticojejunal anastomosis which has been proved to be effective in reducing the incidence of PF. In this method, we firstly do two â�?�?Uâ�? mattress sutures to embed the pancreas remnant into the lumen of jejunum and then tie and fix it, and then bind the jejunum remnant around the pancreas with a purse-string suture. We name this new pancreaticojejunal anastomosis: Double-â�?�?Uâ�? suture embedding and Pursestring binding pancreaticojejunostomy. We have launched a retrospective comparative clinical study to investigate the effectiveness and feasibility of double-â�?�?Uâ�? suture embedding and purse-string binding pancreaticojejunostomy. In this study, we investigated 106 consecutive patients who underwent double-â�?�?Uâ�? suture embedding and purse-string binding pancreaticojejunostomy (double-â�?�?Uâ�? group), as well as 102 consecutive patients who underwent traditional embedding pancreaticojejunostomy (traditional group) at our hospital from March, 2011 to March, 2015. The results show that compared with traditional group, double-â�?�?Uâ�? group has significantly lower PF rate and shorter hospital stay.
