Abstract

Background: The risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF), one of the most dreaded complications after pancreatic surgery, can be predicted from preoperative imaging and tabular clinical routine data. However, existing studies suffer from limited clinical applicability due to a need for manual data annotation and a lack of external validation. We propose AutoFRS (automated fistula risk score software), an externally validated end-to-end prediction tool for POPF risk stratification based on multimodal preoperative data.

Materials and methods: We trained AutoFRS on preoperative contrast-enhanced CT imaging and clinical data from 108 patients undergoing pancreatic head resection and validated it on an external cohort of 61 patients. Prediction performance was assessed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and balanced accuracy. In addition, model performance was compared to the updated alternative fistula risk score (ua-FRS), the current clinical gold standard method for intraoperative POPF risk stratification.

Results: AutoFRS achieved an AUC of 0.81 and a balanced accuracy of 0.72 in internal validation and an AUC of 0.79 and a balanced accuracy of 0.70 in external validation. In a patient subset with documented intraoperative POPF risk factors, AutoFRS (AUC: 0.84 ± 0.05) performed on par with the uaFRS (AUC: 0.85 ± 0.06). The AutoFRS web application facilitates annotation-free prediction of POPF from preoperative imaging and clinical data based on the AutoFRS prediction model.

Conclusion: POPF can be predicted from multimodal clinical routine data without human data annotation, automating the risk prediction process. We provide additional evidence of the clinical feasibility of preoperative POPF risk stratification and introduce a software pipeline for future prospective evaluation.

期刊介绍: The International Journal of Surgery (IJS) has a broad scope, encompassing all surgical specialties. Its primary objective is to facilitate the exchange of crucial ideas and lines of thought between and across these specialties.By doing so, the journal aims to counter the growing trend of increasing sub-specialization, which can result in "tunnel-vision" and the isolation of significant surgical advancements within specific specialties.
