Abstract
Background Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is an operation performed for several indications, including pancreatic and biliary malignancies. Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is a common post-operative complication and the underlying pathophysiology remains poorly understood. This study aimed to evaluate the gastric electrophysiology, symptoms and quality of life following PD, using the novel non-invasive Gastric Alimetry System.
