Methods of Pancreatic Stump Closure for Distal Pancreatectomy

The aim of this study is to conduct a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent distal pancreatectomy in our hospital, aiming to evaluate the safety and feasibility of two methods for closure of the pancreatic remnant: simple closure with a closure device and closure combined with electrocoagulation.

About this study

The aim of this study is to conduct a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent distal pancreatectomy in our hospital, aiming to evaluate the safety and feasibility of two methods for closure of the pancreatic remnant: simple closure with a closure device and closure combined with electrocoagulation. This study aims to determine which method is safer and more feasible, with the potential to reduce postoperative complications, improve outcomes, facilitate better patient recovery, and thereby provide better guidance for clinical practice.
