About this trial
The main objective of the study is to compare 2 broad-spectrum antibiotic (Piperacillin / Tazobactam) treatment modalities, following pancreaticoduodenectomy in patients with preoperative biliary stent, to demonstrate the superiority of a 5-day post-operative antibiotic therapy to antibiotic prophylaxis on the occurrence of surgical site infections (SSI)

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
presence of an organ/space SSI
The primary End Point is the presence of an organ/space SSI determined according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's national nosocomial infections surveillance system. Organ/space SSIs include postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) and bile leakage, with positive culture results.
Secondary outcomes
Infectious complications at post-operative
Overall postsurgical morbidity, graded according to the Dindo/Clavien classification and CCI score
Correlation between post-operative bacteriological samples and intraoperative bile samples
Correlation between post-operative bacteriological samples and intraoperative bile samples (presence of bacterial strains)
Bacteriological resistance profiles
Incidence of fungal contamination
Correlation between bacteriological and fungal contaminations
Correlation between bacteriological and fungal contaminations (presence of bacterial strains and fungal contamination)
