No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of the study is to test the hypothesis that intraarterial bolus application of 500 µg Octreotide in the gastroduodenal artery during the resectional phase of pancreatoduodenectomy in patients with soft pancreatic tissue hardens the texture of the pancreatic remnant.

A primary end-point of the study is a change in pancreatic texture.

A secondary end-point is the rate of postoperative pancreatic fistula.

Conditions

  • Pancreatic Fistula

Interventions

DRUG

Intraarterial application of Octreotide

500 µg / 5 ml Octreotide is given as a single bolus injection in the gastroduodenal artery intraoperatively.

DRUG

sterile NaCl (sodium chloride) 0,9% solution

a single intraarterial shot of 5 ml saline solution in the gastroduodenal artery
