The proinflammatory status, based on preoperative interleukin-6, predicts postpancreatectomy acute pancreatitis and associated postoperative pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy.

ABSTRACT:

Background and aim

Early predictors of morbidity after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) can guide tailored postoperative management. Preoperative inflammatory data in patients who underwent PD remained poorly studied in investigating the clinical significance of predicting postpancreatectomy acute pancreatitis (PPAP) and PPAP-associated postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF).

Methods

The clinical data of 467 patients receiving PD between January 2020 and December 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. Preoperative inflammatory data were stratified according to PPAP, and independent risk factors were analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression and subgroup analyses were conducted to compare risk factors of PPAP-associated POPF and non-PPAP-associated POPF.

Results

PPAP occurr
