Background: No studies to date have determined the impact of pancreatic fat infiltration on postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) occurrence in patients undergoing invagination pancreaticojejunostomy (IV-PJ). Methods: The medical records of patients with a soft pancreas who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy followed by IV-PJ were reviewed . The pancreatic fat ratio on computed tomography (CT) images (I-PFR) was determined using preoperative CT and verified by histologic examination. The relationship between the I-PFR and POPF occurrence was determined. Patients were classified into 2 groups based on I-PFR value (fatty and non-fatty pancreas). Postoperative outcomes were compared between the two groups, and specifically among patients who developed POPF. Results: Of 221 patients, POPF occurred in 67 (30.3%). I-PFR was positively correlated with histologic-calculated fat ratio (ρ = 0.517, p < 0.001). This index was shown to be an independent predictor of POPF. Based on an I-PFR cut-off value of 3.2%, 92 patients were classified in the fatty pancreas group. Subgroup analysis of the patients who developed POPF showed that incidence of abscess formation and hemorrhage tended to be higher in patients with fatty pancreas than in those with non-fatty pancreas. Conclusions: Pancreatic fat infiltration is highly associated with POPF and possibly causes subsequent serious complications in patients undergoing IV-PJ.

Background: The necessity of a specific T classification for extrahepatic intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct (IPNB) type 2, one of the precursors of cholangiocarcinoma (CC), remains unclear. Methods: Patients who underwent resection for extrahepatic biliary tumors were reviewed. Relapse-free survival (RFS) was compared between IPNB type 2 and CC, stratified by T classification. Results: The cohort involved 443 patients with IPNB type 2 (n = 57) and CC (n = 386). In 342 patients with perihilar tumors, 5-year RFS of IPNB type 2 and CC group was 49.8% versus 34.5% (p =.012), respectively. The RFS was 54.6% versus 47.2% (p =.110) for pT1-2 tumors and 28.6% versus 22.7% (p =.436) for pT3-4 tumors, respectively. In 92 patients with distal tumors, 5-year RFS was 47.4% versus 42.1% (p =.678). The RFS was 68.2% versus 49.6% (p =.422) for pT1 tumors and 18.8% versus 38.3% (p =.626) for pT2-3 tumors, respectively. Multivariate analysis identified that poor histologic grade (HR, 2.105; p <.001), microscopic venous invasion (HR, 1.568; p =.002), and nodal metastasis (HR, 1.547; p <.001) were independent prognostic deteriorators, while tumor type (IPNB type 2 vs. CC) was not. Conclusions: Prognostic impact of IPNB type 2 was limited, suggesting unnecessity of a specific T classification for IPNB type 2 with invasive carcinoma.

Background: The prognostic significance of peritoneal lavage cytology (PLC) in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains controversial. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prognostic impact of PLC status in PDAC patients. Methods: Patients intending to undergo resection for PDAC between 2007 and 2020 were included. Survival was compared among patients who underwent resection with negative or positive PLC status and those who did not undergo resection. Univariable and multivariable analyses were conducted to evaluate the prognostic impact of positive PLC status. A systematic literature review was performed to evaluate the correlation between prognosis and the positive PLC rate. Results: A total of 480 patients formed the study cohort and were divided as follows: 438 in the negative PLC group, 18 in the positive PLC group, and 24 in the no resection group. Although the median survival time significantly differed between the negative and positive PLC groups (35.7 vs. 13.6 months, P < 0.001), it did not significantly differ between the positive PLC and no resection groups (13.6 vs. 12.2 months, P = 0.605). Multivariable analyses demonstrated that positive PLC status (hazard ratio = 3.54, 95% confidence interval = 1.97–6.38, P < 0.001) was the strongest poor prognostic factor. Based on statistical analyses for the systematic review, the prognostic impact of positive PLC status weakened significantly as the institutional positive PLC rate increased (P = 0.044). Conclusions: Resection did not improve the prognosis of patients with positive PLC status in our cohort. The institutional positive PLC rate may be a good reference for surgical indication in these patients.

Objective:To evaluate the impact of complications on long-term survival in patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma.Background:Surgical resection for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma is vulnerable to postoperative complications. The prognostic impact of complications in patients with this disease is unknown.Methods:The medical records of patients who underwent curative-intent hepatectomy for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma between 2010 and 2017 were reviewed retrospectively. The comprehensive complication index (CCI) was calculated based on all postoperative complications, which were graded by the Clavien-Dindo classification (CDC). Patients were divided into high and low CCI groups by the median score, and survival was compared between the 2 groups.Results:Excluding 8 patients who died in hospital, 369 patients were analyzed. The CDC grade was I in 20 (5.4%), II in 108 (29.3%), III in 224 (60.7%), and IV in 17 (4.6%) patients. The CCI increased with increasing CDC grade; the median was 42.9 (range, 15.0-98.9). Overall survival differed significantly between the high (n = 187) and low (n = 182) CCI groups (41.2% vs 47.9% at 5-years; P = 0.041). However, multivariable analyses demonstrated that traditional clinicopathological factors were independent predictors of survival and that the dichotomized CCI was not. In addition, the CCI score as a continuous variable was not an independent prognostic factor for overall survival in the multivariable analyses (hazard ratio per 1 CCI score: 1.00, 95% confidence interval: 0.99-1.01, P = 0.775).Conclusions:Cumulative postoperative complications after resection of perihilar cholangiocarcinoma only moderately deteriorate long-term survival, and should not be an argument to deny surgery in this high-risk population.
