Brief Summary:
The incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after Distal pancreatectomy (DP) remains high. Of the available mitigation strategies, high-quality closure of the pancreatic stump is fundamental.
Researchers failed to find a decrease in the incidence of POPF after stapler closure of the pancreatic stump compared with that related to hand-sewn suture in DP. Minimally invasive DP (MDP) is becoming the first choice for patients and surgeons, few studies have evaluated whether stapler closure is superior to hand-sewn suture for stump closure in MDP.
Therefore, this retrospective study was aimed at evaluating the effect of stapler versus hand-sewn closure on the incidence of POPF after MDP.
