Abstract
Introduction: Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (LDP) is a safe and effective procedure; however, its impact on perioperative inflammatory reactions compared with open distal pancreatectomy (ODP) remains unclear. This study aimed to assess short-term outcomes following LDP and ODP regarding inflammatory reactions.
Methods: This retrospective study of 77 consecutive patients who underwent distal pancreatectomy for low-grade malignancies between 2005 and 2022 compared white blood cell (WBC) count, C-reactive protein (CRP) level, serum albumin level, and CRP/albumin ratio (CAR) between LDP and ODP. Complications, especially postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF), recovery program, and hospital stay period, were also compared.
Results: POPF (17.1% vs. 38.7%, p = 0.039) and surgical morbidity (≥Clavien-Dindo grade III, 12.2% vs. 32.3%, p = 0.038) were significantly lower in LDP than in ODP, as for the difference in postoperative inflammatory response, including CRP and CAR, was just temporary. By multivariate analysis, CAR ≥6.94 on POD 3 was significant predictor of POPF (42.1% vs. 13.2%, odds ratio 4.828, p = 0.030).
Conclusion: LDP has lower POPF and earlier postoperative recovery. CAR could be a predictor of POPF.
期刊介绍:
''Digestive Surgery'' presents a comprehensive overview in the field of gastrointestinal surgery. Interdisciplinary in scope, the journal keeps the specialist aware of advances in all fields that contribute to improvements in the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal disease. Particular emphasis is given to articles that evaluate not only recent clinical developments, especially clinical trials and technical innovations such as new endoscopic and laparoscopic procedures, but also relevant translational research. Each contribution is carefully aligned with the need of the digestive surgeon. Thus, the journal is an important component of the continuing medical education of surgeons who want their practice to benefit from a familiarity with new knowledge in all its dimensions.
