Initial recurrence mapping of resected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) could help in stratifying patient subpopulations for optimal postoperative follow-up. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to investigate the initial recurrence patterns of PDAC and to correlate them with clinicopathological factors.MEDLINE and Web of Science databases were searched systematically for studies reporting first recurrence patterns after PDAC resection. Data were extracted from the studies selected for inclusion. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95 per cent confidence intervals were calculated to determine the clinicopathological factors related to the recurrence sites. The weighted average of median overall survival was calculated.Eighty-nine studies with 17 313 patients undergoing PDAC resection were included. The weighted median rates of initial recurrence were 20·8 per cent for locoregional sites, 26·5 per cent for liver, 11·4 per cent for lung and 13·5 per cent for peritoneal dissemination. The weighted median overall survival times were 19·8 months for locoregional recurrence, 15·0 months for liver recurrence, 30·4 months for lung recurrence and 14·1 months for peritoneal dissemination. Meta-analysis revealed that R1 (direct) resection (OR 2·21, 95 per cent c.i. 1·12 to 4·35), perineural invasion (OR 5·19, 2·79 to 9·64) and positive peritoneal lavage cytology (OR 5·29, 3·03 to 9·25) were significantly associated with peritoneal dissemination as initial recurrence site. Low grade of tumour differentiation was significantly associated with liver recurrence (OR 4·15, 1·71 to 10·07).Risk factors for recurrence patterns after surgery could be considered for specific surveillance and treatments for patients with pancreatic cancer.El mapeo del patrón de recidiva inicial tras la resección de un adenocarcinoma ductal pancreático (pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, PDAC) podría ayudar a estratificar subpoblaciones de pacientes para un seguimiento postoperatorio óptimo. El objetivo de esta revisión sistemática con metaanálisis fue investigar los patrones de recidiva inicial de PDAC y correlacionarlos con factores clínico-patológicos. MÉTODOS: Se realizaron búsquedas sistemáticas en las bases de datos MEDLINE y Web of Science para seleccionar estudios que presentaran información sobre los patrones de recidiva inicial después de la resección del PDAC. Se extrajeron los datos de los estudios seleccionados para su inclusión en el metaanálisis. Se calcularon las razones de oportunidades agrupadas (pooled odds ratio, OR) y los i.c. del 95% para definir los factores clínico-patológicos relacionados con las localizaciones de la recidiva. Se estimó el promedio ponderado de la mediana de la supervivencia global.Se incluyeron 89 estudios con 17.313 pacientes a los que se realizó una resección por PDAC. Las tasas medias ponderadas de las localizaciones de la recidiva inicial fueron del 20,8% para la locorregional, 26,5% para las hepáticas, 11,4% para el pulmón y 13,5% para la diseminación peritoneal. La mediana ponderada de supervivencia global fue de 19,8 meses (locorregional), 15,0 meses (hígado), 30,4 meses (pulmón) y 14,1 meses (diseminación peritoneal). El metaanálisis demostró que la resección R1 (inicial) (OR 2,21, i.c. del 95% 1,12-4,35), la invasión perineural (OR 5,19; i.c. del 95% 2,79-9,64) y la positividad de la citología del lavado peritoneal (OR 5,29; i.c. del 95% 3,03-9,25) se asociaron significativamente con la diseminación peritoneal como localización de recidiva inicial. El bajo grado de diferenciación tumoral se asoció significativamente con la recidiva hepática (OR 4,15; i.c. del 95%: 1,71-10,07). CONCLUSIÓN: Se podrían tener en cuenta estos factores de riesgo de los patrones de recidiva tras la cirugía para realizar un seguimiento y tratamiento específicos en pacientes con cáncer de páncreas. more...

Background The optimal nutritional treatment after pancreatoduodenectomy is still unclear. The aim of this meta-analysis was to investigate the impact of routine enteral nutrition following pancreatoduodenectomy on postoperative outcomes. Methods RCTs comparing enteral nutrition (regular oral intake with routine tube feeding) with non-enteral nutrition (regular oral intake with or without parenteral nutrition) after pancreatoduodenectomy were sought systematically in the MEDLINE, Cochrane Library and Web of Science databases. Postoperative data were extracted. Random-effects meta-analyses were performed to compare postoperative outcomes in the two arms, and pooled odds ratios (ORs) or mean differences (MDs) were calculated with 95 per cent confidence intervals. In subgroup analyses, the routes of nutrition were assessed. Percutaneous tube feeding and nasojejunal tube feeding were each compared with parenteral nutrition. Results Eight RCTs with a total of 955 patients were included. Enteral nutrition was associated with a lower incidence of infectious complications (OR 0·66, 95 per cent c.i. 0·43 to 0·99; P = 0·046) and a shorter length of hospital stay (MD –2·89 (95 per cent c.i. –4·99 to –0·80) days; P < 0·001) than non-enteral nutrition. Percutaneous tube feeding had a lower incidence of infectious complications (OR 0·47, 0·25 to 0·87; P = 0·017) and a shorter hospital stay (MD –1·56 (–2·13 to –0·98) days; P < 0·001) than parenteral nutrition (3 RCTs), whereas nasojejunal tube feeding was not associated with better postoperative outcomes (2 RCTs). Conclusion As a supplement to regular oral diet, routine enteral nutrition, especially via a percutaneous enteral tube, may improve postoperative outcomes after pancreatoduodenectomy. more...

Objective Malnutrition is associated with poor survival in pancreatic cancer patients. Nutritional scores show great heterogeneity diagnosing malnutrition. The aim of this study was to find the score best suitable to identify patients with malnutrition related to worse survival after surgery for PDAC. Methods Risk of malnutrition was evaluated preoperatively using twelve nutritional assessment scores. Patients were followed-up prospectively for at least 3 years. Patients at risk for malnutrition were compared to those not at risk according to each score using Kaplan Meier survival statistics. Results A total of 116 Patients receiving a PDAC resection in curative intent were included. Malnutrition according to the Subjective Global Assessment score (SGA), the Short Nutritional Assessment Questionnaire (SNAQ) and the INSYST2 score was associated with worse overall survival (SGA: at-risk: 392 days; not at-risk: 942 days; p = 0.001; SNAQ: at-risk: 508 days; not at-risk: 971 days; p = 0.027; INSYST2: at-risk: 538 days; not at risk: 1068; p = 0.049). In the multivariate analysis SGA (HR of death 2.22, 95% CI 1.37-3.6, p = 0.002) was associated with worse overall survival. Conclusion Malnutrition as defined by the Subjective Global Assessment is independently associated with worse survival in resected PDAC patients. The SGA should be used to stratify PDAC patients in clinical studies. If severely malnourished patients according to the SGA profit from intensified nutritional therapy should be evaluated in a randomized controlled trial. more...

Background Estimation of the risk of malignancy in intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasia (IPMN) of the pancreas is a clinical challenge. Several routinely used clinical factors form the basis of the current consensus guidelines. This study aimed to determine the predictive values of the most commonly assessed risk factors. Methods A meta-analysis of individual risk factors of malignancy in IPMN was performed. Contingency tables were derived from these data, and sensitivity, specificity, negative and positive predictive values, and diagnostic odds ratios (DOR) were determined. Hierarchical summary receiver operating characteristic (HSROC) curves for each factor were calculated and the respective area under the curve (AUC) was assessed. Results A total of 3443 studies were screened initially. Analysis of recent literature revealed 60 studies with 13 relevant risk factors including clinical, serological and radiological parameters. The largest area under the HSROC curve was found for weight loss (0·84) and jaundice/raised bilirubin level (0·80), followed by increased carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) (0·79) or carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19-9 (0·78) levels. The most sensitive factors were patient age (71 per cent) and mural nodules (65 per cent), and jaundice/raised bilirubin level (97 per cent) and increased CEA level (95 per cent) were most specific. None of the analysed factors reached a positive or negative level of prediction beyond 90 per cent. Conclusion None of the established criteria safely distinguishes malignant from non-malignant lesions. more...
