Summary: This phase III trial compares the effect of using lanreotide before surgery to surgery alone in preventing pancreatic fistulas in patients with pancreatic cancer or a pancreatic lesion that could become cancerous. Lanreotide, a type of somatostatin analog similar to somatostatin (a hormone made by the body), and is used to treat certain types of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, and ca...

Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if total removal of the pancreas is a preferable alternative to partial removal in patients with cancer of the pancreatic head who are at high risk of pancreatic leakage. The main question it aims to answer is: Does total pancreas removal improve survival without reducing quality of life compared to partial removal? The only study specific procedures are...

Summary: Curative management of locally resectable invasive adenocarcinomas located in the cephalic region of the pancreas (pancreas, duodenum and ampulla of Vater) requires a pancreaticoduodenectomy followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. Pancreaticoduodenectomy is a major surgery that often leads to major complications including approximately 20% of relevant clinical postoperative pancreatic fistula. Postoper...

Summary: The goal of this study is to learn if urine trypsinogen can be used to diagnose post-pancreatectomy acute pancreatitis in patients undergoing pancreatectomy. Participants will have their urine measured by dipsticks during and after their surgery.

Summary: To establish and maintain a reliable multicenter real-world database for pancreatic SPN, providing high-quality data and evidence-based support for clinical/translational research.

Summary: Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) after surgery mainly occurs after gastrointestinal surgery A functional gastric emptying disorder, clinically characterized by weak or absent gastric peristalsis, gastric motility disorders, or gastric emptying Gastric retention, fullness, nausea and other uncomfortable symptoms caused by delay.This study is based on clinical diagnosis and treatment practice, observi...

Summary: The goal of this observational study is to determine how often lymph node metastases occur in the splenic hilum and surrounding fat in patients with left-sided pancreatic cancer. The main question the study aims to answer is: Is spleen removal necessary in all cases, or is the risk of lymph node metastases in the fat around the spleen low enough to reconsider this standard practice? Currently, spl...

Summary: The DIPLOMA-3 trial is an international, multicenter, patient-blinded randomized controlled trial comparing laparoscopic and robot-assisted left-sided pancreatectomy. Patients with an indication for elective left-sided pancreatecomy for benign or premalignant lesions in the body or tail of the pancreas and considered eligible will be randomized between laparoscopic and robot-assisted resection.

Summary: Adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery significantly improved the survival of pancreatic cancer (PC) patients, but there is a problem that only about 50% of patients start adjuvant chemotherapy after pancreatectomy. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy might control potential metastatic lesions which are not being detected in early disease status and improve the R0 resection rate. In addition, it prevents futile...

Summary: To assess the efficacy of complete covering using retromesenteric omentoplasty vs. partial covering or no covering of peripancreatic arteries in decreasing incidence of grade B+C post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH), i.e. treated by transfusion and / or radiological or surgical hemostasis after PD in patients with high risk of POPF.

Summary: The purpose of this study is to test the safety of high dose omeprazole and see what effects that it has on patients with exocrine pancreatic cancer.

Summary: This study is a prospective, single-center, randomized controlled trial focusing on patients with acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) complicated by pancreatic sinistral portal hypertension (PSPH). The study aims to study the impact of total splenectomy on the debridement efficacy, perioperative recovery, and prognosis of patients with ANP complicated by PSPH.
