Objective To explore the risk factors of intraabdominal complications (IACs), pancreatic fistula (PF), and operative death after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD), and to provide a theoretical basis in reducing the rates of them. Methods Clinical data of 78 patients who underwent standard PD surgery in The Third People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from Jun. 2003 to Nov. 2011 were collected to analyze the influence factors of IACs, PF, and operative death. Results There were 29 cases suffered IACs (13 cases of PF included), and 6 case died during 1 month after operation. Univariate analysis results showed that IACs and PF occurred more often in patients with soft friable pancreas, diameter of main pancreatic duct less than 3 mm, preoperative biliary drainage, no pancreatic duct stenting, and without employment of somatostatin (P < 0.05), no influence factor was found to be related to operative death. Multivariate analysis results showed that patients with no pancreatic duct stenting (OR=1.867, P=0.000), soft texture of remnant stump (OR=1.356, P=0.046), and diameter of main pancreatic duct less than 3 mm (OR=2.874, P=0.015) suffered more IACs; PF was more frequent in patient with no pancreatic duct stenting (OR=1.672, P=0.030), soft texture of remnant stump (OR=1.946, P=0.042), and diameter of main pancreatic duct less than 3 mm (OR=1.782, P=0.002);no independent factor was found to have relationship with operative death. Conclusions Soft texture of remnant stump, diameter of main pancreatic duct less than 3 mm, and no pancreatic duct stenting are independent risk factors that should be considered in indications for PD surgery.
