Abstract： Objective To summarize the diagnosis and treatment experience of the pancreatic fistula secondary to abdominal operations.Methods The clinical data of 27 patients with pancreatic fistula due to abdominal operations were analyzed retrospectively.Results 25 patients were diagnosed by the amylase concentration of the drainage fluid and 2 patients were diagnosed by the percutaneous puncture fluid amylase concentration.Four patients underwent percutaneous puncture drainage by BS-guide.Five patients underwent re.operation drainage.Enteral feeding,total parenteral nutrition,total parenteral plus oral nutrition were applied to 15,6 and 6 patients,respectively.Altogether 3 patients died,all of these patients were in the total parenteral nutrition group.13 cases were discharged with draining tubes,including 2 patients who developed Dseudocyst and received surgical treatment,and the others 1 1 patients were discharged with tubes for(9.0±3.2)months.The mean hospital stays for oral feeding,jejunum tube nutrition and total parenteral nutrition groups were(36.3±10.2)d,(57.6±17.3)d and(63.3±33.4)d,respectively;and difference was statistically significant(F=3.49,P=0.049).The mean hospital stays for patients with or without somatostatin treatment were(53.5±20.3)d and(51.5 ±21.0)d,and difference was not statistically significant(t=0.207,P=0.838).Conclusions hereasingthe understanding ofpancreaticfistula,adequate drainage and rational nutrition phyed a key role in impmving the treatment effects of pancreatic fistula.
