Abstract
Pancreatic fistula remains a frequent and serious complication following pancreatic surgery. The incidence ranges from 10-20% in most series, with pancreatic texture being the most common predictor of the complication. There is little level 1 evidence to support any potential measures to reduce the incidence of pancreatic fistula.Entities:
