Introduction: Of the possible complications after a cephalic duodenopancreatectomy (CPD), the clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (PPF) is the most important, especially in patients with pancreas of a soft consistency. The main objective of this work is to analyze the different postsurgical complications, with special emphasis on the rate of PPF on soft pancreas with a risk of moderate/high PPF, and its incidence between the two different types of sutures used by our group (classic vs reinforced duct-mucosa anastomosis [REDMA]).

Methods: Retrospective observational study, between January 2017 and March 2020, of patients undergoing CPD in our unit after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria.
