A Study in Postoperative Pancreatic Fistula

An Observational Retrospective Study in Postoperative Pancreatic Fistula

The International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) issued the definition and classification system of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF), and received widespread recognition. Currently, it has become an important reference for clinical treatment of POPF.

Conditions

Detailed Description

The definition of POPF released by ISGPS in 2016 still seems to have certain deficiency. For example, in both definitions in 2005 and 2016, the re-operation is used as an important judgment index of "Grade C POPF". But a unified standard or consensus is still lacked for the indication of POPF re-operation, which may finally impact the diagnosis of "Grade C POPF". Therefore, we performed this study, so as to better improve the relevant definition and provide guidance for the diagnosis and treatment.
