Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This prospective, observational study evaluates the rate of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) following distal pancreatectomy (DP) using the AEON™ Endostapler. The study involves 110 patients undergoing DP and assesses primary outcomes based on the International Study Group of Pancreatic Fistula (ISGPF) classification, alongside secondary perioperative parameters. The findings aim to optimize surgical techniques, reduce complications, and improve healthcare outcomes.

- measure
- Rate of Clinically Relevant Postoperative Pancreatic Fistula (POPF)
- timeFrame
- Up to 90 days post-surgery.
- description
- The rate of clinically relevant POPF will be assessed based on the International Study Group of Pancreatic Fistula (ISGPF) definition, which includes drain output of any measurable volume of fluid on or after postoperative day 3 with an amylase content exceeding three times the upper limit of normal serum amylase activity, associated with a clinically relevant condition.
