[Progress of application for enhanced recovery after surgery in pancreaticoduodenectomy]

Due to the large surgical trauma and postoperative complications, the perioperative management of pancreaticoduodenectomy has been one of the urgent problems to be solved by the surgeons. With the development of modern medicine, enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) comes into being, basing on anti-stress mechanism and multi-disciplinary team, and the perioperative management of pancreaticoduodenectomy has been optimized and improved continuously. The surgeons through a range of measures that had evidence-based medicine basis to mitigate the extent of surgical trauma stress, reduce the incidence of postoperative complications, shorten patient recovery time previously healthy state, and achieve maximize benefit for patients. Currently, the ERAS application in the specific aspects of pancreaticoduodenectomy remains contentious. However, with the emergence of evidence-based medicine, ERAS is constantly being refined. Therefore, this article combined with ERAS guidelines and expert consensus is of great significance to deepen the research and understanding of ERAS in pancreaticoduodenectomy.
