Brief Summary

Islet autotransplantation (IAT) is a therapeutic approach used to prevent pancreatogenic diabetes or to reduce the severity of diabetes after a major pancreatectomy. Total pancreatectomy with IAT is being used almost exclusively for treatment of chronic pancreatitis. More recently, indications other than chronic pancreatitis have been reported including IAT after extended pancreatectomy performed for the resection of benign tumors of the mid-segment of the pancreas or IAT after total pancreatectomy for severe abdominal trauma In this study, we study our experience with IAT for the treatment of a broader population of patients undergoing pancreatic surgery including subjects with technically unfeasible or high risk pancreatic anastomosis during partial pancreatectomy and subjects undergoing completion pancreatectomy because of anastomosis leakage after pancreatoduodenectomy for nonmalignant or malignant diseases.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Beta cell function

    Beta-cell function will be assessed by fasting C peptide, HbA1c,glycaemia, change in average daily insulin requirements, basal (fasting) and -10 to 120 min time course of glucose, C-peptide and insulin derived from the arginine test, beta-score and Transplant Estimated Function

    month 1, 3, 6, 12 and every year up to death

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of complications after pancreatic surgery

    90 days from discharge

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of each individual postoperative complication

    90 days from discharge

Study Arms (4)

1

patients with chronic pancreatitis treated with total or subtotal pancreatectomy

2

patients underwent completion pancreatectomy because of anastomotic leak after partial pancreatectomy

3

patients underwent pancreatoduodenectomy in which pancreatic anastomosis was made impracticable by technical difficulties and/or high risk of leakage

4

patients underwent extensive distal pancreatectomy for pancreatic lesions located at the neck

Eligibility Criteria

Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

Patients who underwent partial or total pancreatectomy

You may qualify if:

  • years of age
  • ability to provide written informed consent
  • fasting glycaemia \<126 mg/dl without glucose-lowering medications.

You may not qualify if:

  • Any medical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, will interfere with the safe completion of the trial
  • Diagnosis of intraductal papillary mucinous cancer, unless the absence of multifocal lesion is demonstrated by endoscopic US
  • Presence of multifocal or residual disease at the pancreatic margin. If a malignat disease is the reason for the surgery, 1 cm of the pancreatic remnant in proximity to the pancreatic margin will be resected and sent for immediate pathologic analysis to confirm margin negativity and to rule out multifocal tumor
