Brief Summary: Objective To compare the outcomes after elective pancreatic resections using cavitron ultrasonic surgical aspirator CUSA and selective closure of small blood vessels and branch pancreatic ducts versus surgical scalpel or stapler for the transection of pancreatic tissue

Study design A randomized controlled single centre trial

Study population Two groups of 80 patients 160 in total scheduled for elective open pancreaticoduodenectomy PD for any indication

Intervention Transection of pancreatic tissue with CUSA

Control Standard transection of pancreatic tissue with surgical scalpel in PD or stapler in DP
Detailed Description: Rationale Postoperative pancreatic fistula POPF is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality after pancreatic resections There is no predominant surgical technique of pancreatic stump closure in distal pancreatectomy DP or formation of pancreaticojejunostomy in pancreaticoduodenectomy PD proven to preventlower POPF incidence Cavitron ultrasonic surgical aspirator CUSA selectively removes tissue parenchyma evading blood vessels and pancreatic ducts which could consequently be selectively ligated Such technique could anull pancreatic juice drainage from branch ducts and provide better skeletonised view of the main duct to from an anastomosis or to ligate it in DP and thus lower the incidence of POPF formation

Objective To compare transection of pancreatic tissue with CUSA and selective closure of small blood vessels and branch pancreatic ducts with transection with surgical scalpel or stapler in elective pancreatic resections regarding the incidence of POPF

Study design A randomized controlled single centre trial The study protocol was designed according to the SPIRIT guidelines

Study population Two groups of 80 patients 160 in total scheduled for elective open pancreaticoduodenectomy PD for any indication

Intervention Transection of pancreatic tissue with CUSA

Control Standard transection of pancreatic tissue with surgical scalpel in PD

Main study parametersendpoints Primary outcome is the incidence of POPF Main secondary outcomes are intraoperative outcomes such as blood loss and operative time postoperative outcomes such as complications time to functional recovery and hospital stay
