Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To define and correlate multidetector CT (MDCT) findings of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy with surgical grading based on the 2016 Revised International Study Group of Pancreatic Fistula (ISGPF) classification. METHODS: Between May 2011 and December 2016, 235 patients with periampullary tumor underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy and postoperative MDCT. Patients were classified into three groups (clinically no pancreatic fistula (cNo-PF), grade B, and grade C) according to the ISGPF classification. MDCT images were retrospectively evaluated by two radiologists in consensus for the presence of pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) dehiscence, PJ dehiscence diameter, PJ defect, acute necrotic collection (ANC), peripancreatic fluid collection, and imaging findings of complications. Categorical MDCT findings were compared among the three groups using Pearson's chi-square test, and PJ dehiscence diameter was compared using the Kruskal-Wallis test. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in patient demographics among the groups (cNo-PF = 133, grade B = 68, and grade C = 34), but the MDCT findings were significantly different regarding the presence of PJ dehiscence (p < 0.001), PJ defect (p < 0.001), ANC (p = 0.002), and imaging findings of total complications (p < 0.001). The diameters of PJ dehiscence were significantly different among the groups (cNo-PF [0.42 ± 1.54 mm], grade B [1.47 ± 2.33 mm], and grade C [5.38 ± 6.45 mm]) (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: With respect to the presence of PF, postoperative MDCT findings may differ between surgical grading based on the ISGPF classification. KEY POINTS: • Regarding the presence of pancreatic fistula, the postoperative multidetector CT findings correlate well with surgical grading based on the International Study Group of Pancreatic Fistula classification. • Multidetector CT may provide reliable information to suggest pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy.
