Summary:
One of the most common complications of pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is delayed gastric
emptying (DGE), otherwise known as "gastroparesis," which is not fatal but results in
prolonged hospital stay and increased hospital costs. Delayed gastric emptying is defined
as nasogastric decompression after postoperative day (POD) 10 or a failure to tolerate a
regular diet after POD 14. The incidence of DGE has been reported to range from 5% to
72%.
Detailed description:
We hypothesized that the hand-sewn, two-layered, or continuous suture, could induce
anastomotic edema to indeed the afferent peristalsis, which is one of the causes of DGE.
