World J Gastrointest Surg 2025; 17:106637. [DOI: 10.4240/wjgs.v17.i6.106637] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2025] [Revised: 04/04/2025] [Accepted: 04/27/2025] [Indexed: 05/30/2025] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic papillectomy (EP) via endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography has emerged as a less invasive alternative to surgery for duodenal papillary adenomas (DPAs), which is traditionally associated with notable postoperative risks.
AIM To compare quality of life (QoL) and outcomes between DPA patients undergoing EP vs surgical resection, and to assess the influencing factors of QoL and complications.
METHODS We conducted a retrospective, single-center analysis involving patients treated for DPA at the Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School from 2011 to 2023. The participants completed post-discharge telephone surveys using the 12-item short form survey to assess mental (MCS) and physical component summary (PCS) scores, with norm-based scoring where ≥ 50 denotes normal. Multivariate regression analysis adjusted for confounding variables was used to compare QoL scores.
RESULTS Compared with EP patients, surgically treated patients had significantly lower PCS [median: 53.0, interquartile range (IQR): 46.0-55.1 vs 54.2, IQR: 51.7-55.9, P = 0.008] and MCS scores (median: 48.6, IQR: 41.8-56.0 vs 55.9, IQR: 51.7-60.7, P < 0.001). These disparities persisted even after adjustments for demographic and medical factors. Long-term follow-up of the EP group revealed that abdominal pain and poor sleep were factors negatively impacting PCS scores, whereas postoperative pancreatitis and hypertension were associated with lower MCS scores.
CONCLUSION EP has emerged as a QoL-preserving alternative for patients with DPA, conditional upon ensuring equivalent efficacy and safety. QoL outcomes should be considered when choosing interventions for this patient population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Duodenal adenocarcinoma (DA) has a high recurrence rate, making the prediction of recurrence after surgery critically important. METHODS Our objective is to develop a machine learning-based model to predict the postoperative recurrence of DA. We conducted a multicenter, retrospective cohort study in China. 1830 patients with DA who underwent radical surgery between 2012 and 2023 were included. Wrapper methods were used to select optimal predictors by ten machine learning learners. Subsequently, these ten learners were utilized for model development. The model's performance was validated using three separate cohorts, and assessed by the concordance index (C-index), time-dependent calibration curve, time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curves, and decision curve analysis. RESULTS After selecting predictors, ten feature subsets were identified. And ten feature subsets were combined with the ten machine learning learners in a permutation, resulting in the development of 100 predictive models, and the Penalized Regression + Accelerated Oblique Random Survival Forest model (PAM) exhibited the best predictive performance. The C-index for PAM was 0.882 (95% CI 0.860-0.886) in the training cohort, 0.747 (95% CI 0.683-0.798) in the validation cohort 1, 0.736 (95% CI 0.649-0.792) in the validation cohort 2, and 0.734 (95% CI 0.674-0.791) in the validation cohort 3. A publicly accessible web tool was developed for the PAM. CONCLUSIONS The PAM has the potential to identify postoperative recurrence in DA patients. This can assist clinicians in assessing the severity of the disease, facilitating patient follow-up, and aiding in the formulation of adjuvant treatment strategies.

A scoping review. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2025; 410:62. [PMID: 39915344 PMCID: PMC11802655 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-024-03581-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2024] [Accepted: 12/16/2024] [Indexed: 02/09/2025]
Abstract
PURPOSE Pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) is a challenging procedure which is associated with high morbidity rates. This study was performed to make an overview of risk factors included in risk stratification methods both logistic regression models and models based on artificial intelligence algorithms to predict postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) and other complications following PD and to provide insight in the extent to which these tools were validated. METHODS Five databases were searched to identify relevant studies. Calculators, equations, nomograms, and artificial intelligence models that addressed POPF and other complications were included. Only PD resections were considered eligible. There was no exclusion of the minimally invasive techniques reporting PD resections. All other pancreatic resections were excluded. RESULTS 90 studies were included. Thirty-five studies were related to POPF, thirty-five studies were related to other complications following PD and twenty studies were related to artificial intelligence predication models after PD. Among the identified risk factors, the most used factors for POPF risk stratification were the main pancreatic duct diameter (MPD) (80%) followed by pancreatic texture (51%), whereas for other complications the most used factors were age (34%) and ASA score (29.4%). Only 26% of the evaluated risk stratification tools for POPF and other complications were externally validated. This percentage was even lower for the risk models using artificial intelligence which was 20%. CONCLUSION The MPD was the most used factor when stratifying the risk of POPF followed by pancreatic texture. Age and ASA score were the most used factors for the stratification of other complications. Insight in clinically relevant risk factors could help surgeons in adapting their surgical strategy and shared decision-making. This study revealed that the focus of research still lies on developing new risk models rather than model validation, hampering clinical implementation of these tools for decision support.

Hospital charge and resource use analysis of extended-spectrum penicillin antibiotic therapy after pancreatoduodenectomy in intermediate- and high-risk patients. HPB (Oxford) 2025; 27:63-70. [PMID: 39424467 DOI: 10.1016/j.hpb.2024.09.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2024] [Revised: 09/21/2024] [Accepted: 09/25/2024] [Indexed: 10/21/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We previously reported that an extended antibiotic mitigation pathway following pancreatoduodenectomy in patients with intermediate-/high-risk glands is associated with 83 % lower odds of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF). We now describe associations between the pathway, resource utilization, and hospital charges. METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent elective pancreatoduodenectomy with soft gland texture and fistula risk score (FRS) ≥3 who received standard or extended antibiotics. Hospital charges and resource utilization within 90 days of surgery were compared by CR-POPF status and antibiotic pathway. RESULTS A total of 34 patients received extended antibiotics and 53 received standard antibiotics. In patients with CR-POPF, patients who received extended antibiotics had lower likelihood of surgical or percutaneous reintervention (75.0 % vs. 100.0 %, p = 0.022). Ninety-day postoperative charges associated with CR-POPF were higher than no CR-POPF ($60,527 vs. $25,631, p = 0.028). Our risk-based model predicted a $15,825 decrease in hospital charges per patient receiving extended antibiotics. CONCLUSIONS CR-POPF is associated with higher 90-day hospital charges. Extended antibiotic therapy following pancreatoduodenectomy in patients with soft gland texture and FRS ≥3 is associated with fewer reinterventions in patients who develop CR-POPF. These outcomes will be formally tested in a randomized controlled trial (NCT05753735).

Clinicopathologic features and surgery-related outcomes of duodenal adenocarcinoma: A multicenter retrospective study. Surgery 2024; 176:1745-1753. [PMID: 39261238 DOI: 10.1016/j.surg.2024.08.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2024] [Revised: 08/03/2024] [Accepted: 08/07/2024] [Indexed: 09/13/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of duodenal adenocarcinoma is increasing, with limited studies on this disease published. This multicenter retrospective study aimed to analyze the clinicopathologic features of duodenal adenocarcinoma and identify prognostic factors for postoperative survival. METHODS Demographic characteristics, clinicopathologic features, treatment outcomes, and survival of patients with duodenal adenocarcinoma undergoing surgical treatment at 16 Chinese medical centers from 2012 to 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS Among the 2,189 patients with duodenal adenocarcinoma included, 50.07% had extra-ampullary duodenal adenocarcinoma and 49.93% had peri-ampullary duodenal adenocarcinoma. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival rates for patients who underwent radical surgery were 91.78%, 69.30%, and 55.86%, respectively. The median overall survival was 73 months (range, 64-84), and the median progression-free survival was 64 months (range, 52-76). No differences in survival were observed between the laparotomy and minimally invasive surgery groups (log-rank P = .562); furthermore, no significant between-group differences in operation time, lymph node dissection, postoperative complications, or in-hospital mortality were observed (P > .05). The minimally invasive surgery group experienced less intraoperative blood loss (250 mL vs 100 mL, P < .001), fewer intraoperative blood transfusions (24.97% vs 18.84%, P = .002), and shorter hospital stays (28 days vs 23 days, P < .001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that advanced age, advanced stage, longer operation time, intraoperative blood transfusion, and postoperative hemorrhage were independent risk factors for poor prognosis. CONCLUSION Radical surgery was associated with favorable overall survival among patients with duodenal adenocarcinoma, and no difference in survival was observed between patients with extra-ampullary duodenal adenocarcinoma and peri-ampullary duodenal adenocarcinoma. Minimally invasive surgery is a reliable alternative for duodenal adenocarcinoma treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The methodology used for recording, evaluating and reporting postoperative complications (PC) is unknown. The aim of the present study was to determine how PC are recorded, evaluated, and reported in General and Digestive Surgery Services (GDSS) in Spain, and to assess their stance on morbidity audits. METHODS Using a cross-sectional study design, an anonymous survey of 50 questions was sent to all the heads of GDSS at hospitals in Spain. RESULTS The survey was answered by 67 out of 222 services (30.2%). These services have a reference population (RP) of 15 715 174 inhabitants, representing 33% of the Spanish population. Only 15 services reported being requested to supply data on morbidity by their hospital administrators. Eighteen GDSS, with a RP of 3 241 000 (20.6%) did not record PC. Among these, 7 were accredited for some area of training. Thirty-six GDSS (RP 8 753 174 (55.7%) did not provide details on all PC in patients' discharge reports. Twenty-four (37%) of the 65 GDSS that had started using a new surgical procedure/technique had not recorded PC in any way. Sixty-five GDSS were not concerned by the prospect of their results being audited, and 65 thought that a more comprehensive knowledge of PC would help them improve their results. Out of the 37 GDSS that reported publishing their results, 27 had consulted only one source of information: medical progress records in 11 cases, and discharge reports in 9. CONCLUSIONS This study reflects serious deficiencies in the recording, evaluation and reporting of PC by GDSS in Spain.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to define and assess Ideal Outcome in the national or multicenter registries of North America, Germany, the Netherlands, and Sweden. BACKGROUND Assessing outcomes after pancreatoduodenectomy among centers and countries requires a broad evaluation that cannot be captured by a single parameter. Previously, 2 composite outcome measures (textbook outcome and optimal pancreatic surgery) for pancreatoduodenectomy have been described from Europe and the United States. These composites were harmonized into ideal outcome (IO). METHODS This analysis is a transatlantic retrospective study (2018-2020) of patients after pancreatoduodenectomy within the registries from North America, Germany, The Netherlands, and Sweden. After 3 consensus meetings, IO for pancreatoduodenectomy was defined as the absence of all 6 parameters: (1) in-hospital mortality, (2) severe complications-Clavien-Dindo ≥3, (3) postoperative pancreatic fistula-International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) grade B/C, (4) reoperation, (5) hospital stay >75th percentile, and (6) readmission. Outcomes were evaluated using relative largest difference (RLD) and absolute largest difference (ALD), and multivariate regression models. RESULTS Overall, 21,036 patients after pancreatoduodenectomy were included, of whom 11,194 (54%) reached IO. The rate of IO varied between 55% in North America, 53% in Germany, 52% in The Netherlands, and 54% in Sweden (RLD: 1.1, ALD: 3%, P <0.001). Individual components varied with an ALD of 2% length of stay, 4% for in-hospital mortality, 12% severe complications, 10% postoperative pancreatic fistula, 11% reoperation, and 9% readmission. Age, sex, absence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, body mass index, performance status, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, biliary drainage, absence of vascular resection, and histologic diagnosis were associated with IO. In the subgroup of patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma, country, and neoadjuvant chemotherapy also was associated with improved IO. CONCLUSIONS The newly developed composite outcome measure "Ideal Outcome" can be used for auditing and comparing outcomes after pancreatoduodenectomy. The observed differences can be used to guide collaborative initiatives to further improve the outcomes of pancreatic surgery.
