Objective To investigate the risk factors and preventions of functional delayed gastric emptying (FDGE) after pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy (PPPD). Methods The clinical data of 41 patients after undergoing PPPD between 2003 and 2009 in this hospital were analyzed retrospectively.Results In all 41 cases, postoperative complications developed in 13 patients (31.7%), in which 7 patients developed FDGE (17.1%). The complications excluding FDGE (P=0.010) and diabetes (P=0.024) had remarkable relations with the FDGE in the univariate analysis; Compared with the non-FDGE patients, the albumin was declined obviously (P=0.020) while the serum direct bilirubin increased significantly (P=0.036) in the FDGE patients, while the development of FDGE had relation only with the albumin (P=0.039) and the complication of diabete (P=0.047) by the binary logistic regression analysis. Conclusion In the patients undergoing PPPD, preoperative control of the blood glucose, preoperative correction of hypoproteinemia and hyperbilirubinemia, and centralizing PPPD in high-volume have possibly positive significance for the prevention of FDGE.
Objective This study was conducted to evaluate and analyze the clinical effect between subtotal stomach-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy (SSPPD) and pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy (PPPD), especially compare the incidences of delayed gastric emptying (DGE) between them. Methods The documents about SSPPD and PPPD were searched in Cochrane Library, PubMed database, Embase database, Web of Science, Chinese biomedicine database, CNKI database, VIP database, and WanFang database. The quality of included studies was assessed according to the Cochrane systematic review methods, and statistical analysis of data was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. Firstly, comparison of incidence of DGE and other effective indexes between SSPPD group and PPPD group was performed by enrolling all included studies, whether met the DGE standards of International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) or not, and then comparison of incidence of DGE and clinical DGE was performed by enrolling included studies that met the DGE standards of ISGPS. Results Ten studies were included, with a total of 804 patients, in which, 433 cases underwent SSPPD and 371 cases underwent PPPD. The results of meta-analysis indicated that, in all the included studies, the total incidence of DGE〔OR = 0.33, 95%CI is (0.17, 0.63),P = 0.000 9〕, and the time of nasogastric tube〔MD = –2.65，95%CI is (–4.49, –0.80),P = 0.005〕, and time of stared liquid diet〔MD = –4.13, 95%CI is (–7.35, –0.91),P = 0.01〕 showed significant differences. The total incidence of DGE, the time of nasogastric tube, and time of stared liquid diet were less in SSPPD group. But there was no significant difference between the SSPPD group and PPPD group in operating time, intraoperative blood loss, time of started solid diet, hospital stay, and incidences of reinsertion of nasogastric tube, pancreatic fistula, intra-abdominal abscess, reoperation, wound infection, postoperative hemorrhage, and mortality (P>0.05). In the 8 studies adopted DGE standard of ISGPS, the total incidence of DGE〔OR = 0.31, 95%CI is (0.15, 0.65)，P = 0.002〕 and incidence of clinical DGE 〔OR = 0.13，95%CI is (0.05, 0.40),P = 0.000 3〕showed significant differences. The total incidence of DGE and incidence of clinical DGE were both lower in SSPPD group. Conclusions Compared with PPPD group, SSPPD group was associated with significantly less incidence of DGE. Meanwhile, the time of the nasogastric tube and started liquid diet are shorter than those of SSPPD. And there is no significant difference in the other aspects.
ObjectiveTo discuss the current status and progress of delayed gastric emptying (DGE) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD).MethodThe related researches about DGE after PD in recent year were searched and reviewed.ResultsThe etiology and pathogenesis of DGE had not yet been fully elucidated. There were various risk factors, such as the surgical trauma, advanced age, diabetes, and with other abdominal complications. The pylorus preserving PD didn’t increase the risk of DGE. The pylorus ring resection, anterior colon, Braun anastomosis, and minimally invasive surgery were beneficial for reducing DGE. Although there was no obvious progress in the treatment of DGE at home and abroad, the majority of patients could be cured by the symptomatic conservative treatment.ConclusionsPrevention is a main strategy for DGE after PD. Application of enhanced recovery after surgery might be a key to solve problem in clinical, but further research is needed.
ObjectiveTo analyze the risk factors affecting delayed gastric emptying (DGE) after laparoscopic distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer. MethodsThe gastric cancer patients who underwent laparoscopic distal gastrectomy in the Jiaozuo People’s Hospital from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2022 were retrospectively collected. The occurrence of DGE was recorded. Meanwhile, the multivariate binary logistic regression analysis was performed to screen the risk factors affecting the DGE. ResultsA total of 350 gastric cancer patients underwent laparoscopic distal gastrectomy and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria of this study were included, 17 (4.9%) of whom developed DGE. The multivariate binary logistic regression analysis results showed that the preoperative gastric outflow tract obstruction (OR=8.582, P=0.009), intraoperative jejunal nutrition tube indwelling (OR=14.317, P=0.010), more peritoneal drainage tube placement (OR=5.455, P=0.006), and intraoperative blood loss ≥140 mL (OR=4.912, P=0.018) increased the risk of DGE. ConclusionAccording to the results of this study, when patients undergoing laparoscopic distal radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer accompanied by preoperative gastric outflow tract obstruction, intraoperative jejunal nutrition tube indwelling, more peritoneal drainage tube placement, and more intraoperative blood loss, it should be paid more attention to prevention DGE, and early detection and treatment, so as to improve the prognosis of patients.
