Abstract
Background: This study explores the association between the need for open necrosectomy (ON) during infected necrotizing pancreatitis (INP) treatment and the development of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) following definitive surgery (DS) for transverse colonic fistulas.
Materials and methods: This study was conducted at two tertiary hospitals and included patients who underwent DS for colonic fistula secondary to INP from January 2009 to December 2023. Patients were followed until hospital discharge. The primary outcome was the incidence of POPF.
Results: A total of 135 patients were included. The median age was 38 years (interquartile range [IQR]: 32-44 years), with 85 (62.9%) being male. ON was required in 52 patients (38.5%), with 24 patients developing POPF post-DS. The need for ON (odds ratio [OR] = 2.78, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.03-7.58, p = 0.040) and the interval from INP resolution to DS (OR = 0.82, 95% CI: 0.68-0.92, p = 0.011) were associated with POPF.
Conclusion: The need for ON during INP treatment is significantly associated with an increased risk of POPF following DS for transverse colonic fistulas.
期刊介绍:
Langenbeck''s Archives of Surgery aims to publish the best results in the field of clinical surgery and basic surgical research. The main focus is on providing the highest level of clinical research and clinically relevant basic research. The journal, published exclusively in English, will provide an international discussion forum for the controlled results of clinical surgery. The majority of published contributions will be original articles reporting on clinical data from general and visceral surgery, while endocrine surgery will also be covered. Papers on basic surgical principles from the fields of traumatology, vascular and thoracic surgery are also welcome. Evidence-based medicine is an important criterion for the acceptance of papers.
