Application and Optimization of the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) Definition and Grading Criteria for Postoperative Complications of Pancreatic Surgery in Laparoscopic Pancreatic Surgery

Application and Optimization of the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) Definition and Grading Criteria for Postoperative Complications of Pancreatic Surgery in Laparoscopic Pancreatic Surgery

In recent years, with the continuous development of minimally invasive techniques, laparoscopic pancreatic surgery has also been widely used. Although the postoperative mortality rate of laparoscopic pancreatic surgery has been decreasing as the technology continues to improve and mature, the complication rate reported varies widely among centers.The definition and grading criteria of ISGPS on postoperative complications of pancreatic surgery are mostly proposed based on open pancreatic surgery, and most of the data of the later related studies are also for open pancreatic surgery, while the applicability of the definition and grading criteria in laparoscopic pancreatic surgery is still lacking in systematic The study The main purpose of this study is to investigate the applicability of the ISGPS definition and grading criteria for pancreatic fistula, postoperative bleeding and delayed gastric emptying in laparoscopic pancreatic surgery.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. All patients underwent laparoscopic pancreatic resections at the Department of Pancreatic Surgery of West China Hospital of Sichuan University and the Department of Minimal Invasive Surgery of Shangjin Nanfu Hospital between January 2014 and July 2022.

3. Patients whose demographic parameters, perioperative clinical variables, postoperative follow-up outcomes for 3 months and total hospital costs can be collected completely.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patients converted to laparotomy
2. Patients underwent total pancreatectomy
3. Patients underwent pancreatic pseudocyst drainage management
