Summary

Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a major complication and an important cause of mortality after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Trans-nasal afferent loop decompression technique (TNALD) may reduce the rate of POPF based on our previous retrospective study. The aim of this open-label randomized controlled trial is to determine whether TNALD is a protective factor against the development of POPF after PD.

Conditions

  • Pancreatic Fistula
  • Pancreaticoduodenectomy
  • Complication of Surgical Procedure

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Trans-Nasal Afferent Loop Decompression

A 14Fr silicon tube with multiple side holes within the range of 15 cm from the tip will be placed into the afferent jejunal limb with its end close to the pancreaticojejunostomy (\<3 cm) during the surgery. Continuous closed negative-pressure suction will be applied to that tube for 72 hours and after that the nasogastric tube will be removed. No nasogastric tube will be placed, or the nasogastric tube will be removed immediately after extubation.

PROCEDURE

Without Trans-Nasal Afferent Loop Decompression

No decompression tube will be placed. No nasogastric tube will be placed, or the nasogastric tube will be removed immediately after extubation.
