Study Overview

Proximal Roux-en-y Gastrojejunal Anastomosis on Delayed Gastric Emptying After Pylorus-resecting Pancreaticoduodenectomy

This study aims to evaluate whether the incidence of delayed gastric emptying (DGE) can be reduced by proximal Roux-en-y gastrojejunal anastomosis in comparison with the standard gastrojejunal anastomosis in pylorus-resecting pancreaticoduodenectomy (PrPD).

Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is a common complication after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), occurring in 20% to 70% of the patients. DGE is usually not a life-threatening complication, but it contributes significantly to increased length of hospital stay, health care costs, and patient discomfort. In a recent study by Sakamoto et al, proximal Roux-en-y gastrojejunal anastomosis is associated with a reduced incidence of DGE after pylorus-resecting pancreaticoduodenectomy (PrPD); however, these results may have been biased because of the retrospective nature. Therefore, the investigators conducted the present randomized controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate the impact of the proximal Roux-en-y gastrojejunal anastomosis on reducing DGE following PrPD.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group/ArmIntervention/Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: PrPD with RGA

Patients who will undergo PrPD with proximal Roux-en-y gastrojejunal anastomosis.

PROCEDURE: PrPD with proximal Roux-en-y gastrojejunal anastomosis

  • the distal antrum was divided about 1 to 2 cm proximal to the pylorus ring, preserving more than 95% of the stomach. The proximal jejunum was divided approximately 2 to 4 cm distal to the duodeno-jejunal junction. After completion of the resection, the pr
EXPERIMENTAL: conventional PrPD

Patients who will undergo conventional PrPD.

PROCEDURE: conventional PrPD

  • After completion of the pancreatojejunal anastomosis (PJA) and hepatojejunal anastomosis (HJA), a hand-sewn, isoperistaltic GJA was performed 25 to 30 cm distal to the HJA in two layers by using 3-0 polydioxanone (PDS) sutures and 4-0 silk sutures.
Primary Outcome MeasuresMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Delayed gastric emptying,rateThe severity of DGE was classified into 3 grades (A, B, or C) according to the ISGPS's clinical criteria, based on the patient's clinical course and postoperative management, such as the need for NGT in the postoperative period or the inability to tolerate solid oral intake. Grade A was defined as needing the NGT for more than 7 days or reinsertion of the NGT after postoperative day 3, or as being unable to tolerate a solid diet by postoperative day 7. Grade B was defined as needing for NGT for 8 to 14 days after surgery or reinsertion of the NGT after day 7, or as being unable to tolerate a solid diet by postoperative day 14. Grade C was defined as needing the NGT for more than 14 days or reinsertion of the NGT after day 14, or as being unable to tolerate a solid diet by day 21.60 days after operation
