About this trial

Minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy remains one of the most challenging abdominal procedures. Safety and feasibility remain controversial when comparing minimally-invasive with open pancreaticoduodenectomy, especially for malignant tumors.The aim of this study was to compare minimally invasive and open pancreatoduodenectomy for short-term outcomes and long-term follow-up in a randomized trial.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age: >18yr, <75yr

Patients with pancreatic cancer or non-pancreatic cancers (biliary duct cancer or ampullary cancer) who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy

Preoperative imaging assessment is resectable or borderline resectable

Disqualifiers

Benign tumors of the head of pancreas

Enhanced CT diagnosis revealed that the excess of SMV was more than 180 degrees, or distant metastasis.

conversion to laparotomy because of intraoperative difficulty

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Overall complications

The proportion of all complications after operation accounted for the total number of patients

Time frame
Up to postoperative 30 days
2

Pancreatic fistula

The international study group (ISGPF) definition: A drain output of any measurable volume of fluid on or after postoperative day 3 with an amylase content greater than 3 times the serum amylase activity. Three different grades of postoperative fistula (grades A, B, C) are defined according to the clinical impact on the patient's hospital course.

Time frame
Up to postoperative 30 days
3

Intra-abdominal bleeding

The International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) definition: Blood loss through abdominal drains or nasogastric tube;hematemesis or melena; clinical deterioration of the patient; unexplained hypotension or tachycardia; or laboratory findings such as a decreasing hemoglobin concentration.

Time frame
Up to postoperative 30 days
4

Intra-abdominal infection

Positive cultures of collection of fluid or blood,or persistent fever necessitating treatment with antibiotics and positive detection in image test.

Time frame
Up to postoperative 30 days

Secondary outcomes

1

Length of hospital stay (day)

Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 2 weeks

Time frame
Up to postoperative 2 weeks

Other outcomes

1

progression-free survival

The period between the beginning of treatment and the observation of disease progression or the occurrence of death for any reason.

Time frame
Up to postoperative 5 years
