Summary

This trial will investigate what surgical technique between pancreaticogastrostomy and pancreaticojejunostomy with transanastomotic externalized drains is associated with the lowest rate of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy in case of high-risk pancreatic remnants.

Conditions

  • Pancreatic Fistula

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Pancreaticogastrostomy with external drain

Pancreatico-enteric anastomosis is provided according to the "Bassi technique", pancreatic remnant is pushed into the gastric cavity through a posterior gastrotomy. An externalized drain is placed into the main pancreatic duct.

PROCEDURE

Pancreaticojejunostomy with transanastomotic drain

Pancreatico-enteric anastomosis is provided through a double-layer, duct-to-mucosa anastomosis with a transanastomotic externalized drain.
