Indocyanine green fluorescence in the evaluation of post-resection pancreatic remnant perfusion after a pancreaticoduodenectomy: a clinical study protocol

Original language description

BackgroundPancreaticoduodenectomy is associated with an incidence of postoperative complications of approximately 41%. One of the most severe complications is a postoperative pancreatic fistula. The exact cause of postoperative fistula development is still unknown, but it appears to be multifactorial. Proper perfusion of pancreatic remnant is essential for the healing of pancreaticojejunostomy. To date, there is no method to reliably evaluate the vascular supply of the remnant. One of the methods for the assessment of organ perfusion is the indocyanine green fluorescence. This study aims to determine if indocyanine green fluorescence is a reliable method to measure the perfusion of the post-resection pancreatic remnant. The secondary outcome is to determine if intraoperative evaluation of the vascular supply of the post-resection remnant may predict the increased risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula development.MethodsThis study is designed as a prospective, observational study. All consecutive patients undergoing open or robotic pancreaticoduodenectomies at our department during the 1st May 2024-31st December 2026 period will be enrolled. The exclusion criteria are an allergy to indocyanine green and refusal by the patient. The adequacy of the vascular supply of the post-resection pancreatic remnant will be intraoperatively evaluated using a fluorescence detector. Patients will be divided into two groups: Those with high risk of pancreatic fistula development and those with low risk. The incidence of pancreatic fistulas in both groups is to be compared. Postoperative data including morbidity, mortality, hospital stay, intensive care unit stay and postoperative fistula development will be collected.DiscussionIf an intraoperative assessment of the perfusion of post-resection pancreatic remnant using indocyanine green is proven to be a suitable method to estimate the increased risk of the pancreatic fistula, the list of the existing known risk factors could be expanded. In the most high-risk patients the modification of the surgical procedure could be considered.Trial registrationNumber: NCT06198400 ClinicalTrials.Gov. Date 08.01.2024.
