Anastomotic bleeding from invaginated pancreaticogastrostomy following pancreatoduodenectomy: incidence, risk factors, treatment and prevention.
Article in Langenbeck's archives of surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundMeta-analysis of 10 randomized prospective trials demonstrated a higher risk of postoperative bleeding from pancreaticogastrostomy (PG) compared with pancreatojejunostomy following pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). This study evaluated the incidence, risk factors, and treatment of anastomotic bleeding from invaginated PG.
methodsWe retrospectively evaluated all consecutive PDs performed between April 1, 2011 and December 31, 2022 using invaginated PG by the double purse-string technique. Multivariate analysis identified risk factors for anastomotic PG bleeding.
resultsDuring the study, 695 consecutive patients with a median age of 66 years underwent PD; the majority was performed for ductal pancreatic adenocarcinomas. Simultaneous vascular resections were performed in 328 patients. Postoperative mortality was 4.1%. Bleeding from PG occurred in 33(4.6%) patients at a median interval of 5 days (range, 1-14) from surgery, leading to reoperation in 21(63%). PG bleeding-related mortality was 9.0%. Multivariate analyses identified a soft pancreatic texture and Wirsung duct > 3 or ≤ 3 mm (Class C and D, respectively, of the ISGPS) (odds ratio [OR]: 2.17, 95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 1.38-3.44; P = 0.0009) and wrapping of the invaginated pancreas (OR: 0.37, 95% CI: 0.17-0.84; P = 0.01) as independent risk factors for PG bleeding.
conclusionsIn a large volume setting, anastomotic bleeding from invaginated PG occurred in ~ 5% of patients and was associated with soft pancreatic parenchyma and small wirsung duct. The reduced rate of PG bleeding observed with wrapping of the invaginated pancreatic stump warrants further evaluation in a prospective randomized study.
