Higher cumulative fluid following a pancreaticoduodenectomy as a single modifiable factor for post-operative pancreatic fistula: An analysis of risk factor

Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is one of the major complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy. There have been many studies into the risk factors determining POPF. Some studies have reported a higher peri-operative fluid balance associated with POPF, however, the pertinent findings remain controversial. The aims of this study were to determine risk factors of clinically relevant-post operative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) after...
