Article Synopsis
- The study compared the safety and effectiveness of three surgical procedures following pancreaticoduodenectomy: isolated pancreaticojejunostomy, isolated gastrojejunostomy, and conventional pancreaticojejunostomy.
- A systematic review of 13 studies with 1942 patients indicated that isolated pancreaticojejunostomy had a significantly lower reoperation rate than conventional pancreaticojejunostomy, but took longer to perform.
- Despite these findings, there were no significant differences in major postoperative complications between the isolated procedures and conventional methods, highlighting the need for further high-quality trials.
