Background: Post-pancreatectomy acute pancreatitis (PPAP) is an early acute inflammatory process of the pancreatic remnant that is associated with a series of downstream pancreas-specific complications. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between postoperative serum C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and the occurrence of PPAP after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD).
Methods: Consecutive patients who underwent PD between January 1, 2020, and May 31, 2022, were retrospectively analyzed.

The role of preoperative hyperamylasemia in the perioperative enzyme levels in patients undergoing cardiac surgery is unclear. The primary outcome of this observational clinical study was to determine whether patients with preoperative hyperamylasemia undergoing on-pump cardiac surgery document an increase in serum amylase levels perioperatively compared with patients with normal serum amylase levels preoperatively. This prospective study evaluated serum total, pancreatic, and salivary amylase levels, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and serum creatinine before the operation at postoperative days (POD) 1, 2, 3, and 7.
