Longstanding postoperative fluid collection influences recurrence of pancreatic malignancy

Background/Aims Postoperative abdominal fluid collection (PAFC) is a frequent complication of pancreatobiliary cancer surgery. The effects of the existence and duration of PAFC are not well known. This study aimed to assess the effects of PAFC on patient prognosis after surgery for pancreatobiliary...

The effects of the existence and duration of PAFC are not well known. This study aimed to assess the effects of PAFC on patient prognosis after surgery for pancreatobiliary adenocarcinoma and the association of longstanding PAFC with the recurrence of pancreatic cancer. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the data of 194 consecutive patients with pancreatobiliary adenocarcinoma who underwent curative operations from August 2005 to December 2019. The presence of PAFC was assessed using computed tomography within a week of surgery; PAFC lasting > 4 weeks was defined as longstanding PAFC. Results Among 194 patients, PAFC occurred in 165 (85.1%), and 74 of these had longstanding PAFC. The recurrence rate of pancreatobiliary adenocarcinoma was significantly higher in patients with longstanding PAFC than in patients with non-longstanding PAFC (p = 0.025). Recurrence was also significantly associated with high T stage (T3, T4; p = 0.040), lymph node involvement (p < 0.001), perineural invasion (p < 0.006), and non-receipt of adjuvant chemotherapy (p = 0.025). Longstanding PAFC was significantly associated with the recurrence of pancreatic adenocarcinoma (p = 0.016). However, cancer-specific survival was related to neither the presence nor the duration of PAFC. Conclusions The presence of longstanding PAFC was associated with the recurrence of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. However, a larger prospective study is necessary to confirm the findings.Young Jung KimYoung Koog CheonTae Yoon LeeSeong-Hwan ChangMi-Hye YuThe Korean Association of Internal Medicinearticlepancreatic neoplasmsbiliary tract neoplasmsrecurrencesurvivalascitic fluidMedicineRENThe Korean Journal of Internal Medicine, Vol 36, Iss 6, Pp 1338-1346 (2021)
