The application of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) risk stratification and mitigation strategies requires an update of the protocol for an early drain removal after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). The aim of the study is to highlight the unreliability of a single drain fluid amylase (DFA) cutoff-based protocol in the setting of a risk-based drain management.

Abstract
The application of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) risk stratification and mitigation strategies requires an update of the protocol for an early drain removal after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). The aim of the study is to highlight the unreliability of a single drain fluid amylase (DFA) cutoff-based protocol in the setting of a risk-based drain management.File in questo prodotto:
