About this trial

Pancreatic fistula is one of the most serious complication after pancreatoduodenectomy. To reduce pancreatic fistula, many authors recommend different techniques in pancreatojejunostomy. The purpose of this study is to determine which is the best method in preventing pancreatic fistula by enforce pancreaticojejunostomy with tissue glue .

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

All the patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy for cancer

Patients able to give their informed consent

Disqualifiers

Unfit patients for surgery due to severe medical illness.

Inoperable patients by imaging studies, irresectable tumors after laparotomy or diagnostic laparoscopy.

Presence of distant metastasis .

Patients refused to participate in the study.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Reinforced pancreaticojejunostomy with tissue adhesive glue modified cyanoacrylate (glubran 2)

    Drug

    pancreaticojejunostomy was done with application of glubran 2: The blister pack was opened, and the sterile single-dose vial was released directly onto the operating table in a sterile environment, Draw the Glubran 2 out of the single-dose vial using a sterile syringe then put the syringe into applicator Glubran 2 was applied into anastomosis by applicator in spraying manner . Whenever possible, the area to be treated should be cleaned before application. When applied in such a minimal amount, once it had polymerized, Glubran 2 formed a thin adhesive layer. It was therefore essential not to apply more than one drop in the same point. A second layer of Glubran 2 may not be applied until the first had polymerized. Any excess product was removed using a dry swab within 5-6 seconds after application. Glubran 2 was not touched after application until the polymerization reaction is complete, as it may detach or not produce the desired effect.
