Brief Summary

The impact of preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) on morbidity and mortality associated with Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) in patients with peri-ampulary tumors is still controversial. The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of PBD on surgical and oncologic outcomes after PD in jaundiced patients with operable peri-ampulary tumors.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Early postoperative mortality (within 3 months)

    Death within 90 days postoperatively

    within 90 days after surgery

  • Early postoperative morbidities (within 3 months)

    Any complications related to surgery within 3 months including: postoperative bleeding, pancreatic fistula, Biliary leakage, Intra-abdominal infection, wound infection/ dehiscence

    within 90 days after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Tumor recurrence

    2 years follow up after surgery

  • Disease free survival (DFS)

    2 years follow up after surgery

  • Overall survival (OS)

    2 years follow up after surgery

Study Arms (2)

Direct Surgery (DS) group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

patients subjected to direct surgery (DS) within 1 week after randomization

Procedure: Surgery

Preoperative Biliary Drainage (PBD) group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

patients managed by Preoperative Biliary Drainage followed by surgery after 4-6 weeks.

Procedure: Preoperative Biliary Drainage (PBD)Procedure: Surgery

Interventions

Endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage (ERBD) and stent placement was the first choice for PBD while ultrasound-guided percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) was done if ERBD was not feasible. Biliary drainage was considered successful if the serum bilirubin level decreased by 50% or more within 2 weeks after the procedure. Patients with failed PBD were referred directly to surgery, while those with successful PBD were referred to surgery 4 to 6 weeks after first drainage procedure according to the latest guidelines

Preoperative Biliary Drainage (PBD) group
SurgeryPROCEDURE

The standard surgical procedure for operable tumors Whipple procedure with triple reconstruction, namely pancreatogastrostomy or pancreatojejunostomy,hepaticojejunostomy and gastrojejunostomy
