Multivariate logistic regression analysis for prediction of clinically relevant pancreatic fistula in the early phase after pancreaticoduodenectomy.
Postoperative pancreatic fistula (PF) remains a major complication after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). We aimed to investigate the predictors of clinically relevant PF after PD. ⋯ White blood cell count, CRP and d-amylase on POD4 were predictive factors for clinically relevant PF after PD. These findings indicate that our formula is useful for management of drain after PD.
