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.

Objective: To validate the ISGPS definition and grading system of PPAP after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD).

Summary Background Data: In 2022, the International Study Group for Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) defined post-pancreatectomy acute pancreatitis (PPAP) and recommended a prospective validation of its diagnostic criteria and grading system.

Methods: This was a prospective, international, multicenter study including patients undergoing PD at 17 referral pancreatic centers across Europe, Asia, Oceania, and the United States.

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.

Article Synopsis
  • Pancreatic stenting is effective in reducing the occurrence and severity of post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP), but optimal timing for placement is not well studied.
  • A study analyzed 590 patients to compare early pancreatic stent placement (EPSP) with late placement (LPSP), finding that EPSP significantly lowers PEP rates (2.9% vs. 7.3%) and hyperamylasemia (19.7% vs. 27.8%).
  • Results support the practice of placing pancreatic stents immediately before or after endoscopic procedures to minimize pancreatitis risk.

Background: Postoperative pancreatic fistula is the most common severe complication after pancreatic surgery. It associated with increased morbidity and prolonged hospital stay. Identifying patients at low risk for postoperative pancreatic fistula is essential to enable timely removal of drains and facilitate early discharge.
