Results:
Complications occurred in 6 cases after duodenopancreatectomy including pancreatic fistula in 3 cases, bile duct fistula in 1 case, abdominal cavity hemorrhage in 1 case, and alimentary tract hemorrhage in 1 case, with an incidence rate of postoperative complications of 16.7%; and death occurred in 2 cases.
Conclusion:
Adequate measures should be taken to reduce such complications as pancreatic fistula, bile duct fistula, abdominal cavity hemorrhage, alimentary tract hemorrhage and abdominal cavity infection, and these measures include nutritional support, careful operation in the surgery with adequate drainage, and careful observation and nursing after the surgery.
