Brief summary
Patients suffering from postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after minimally invasive enucleation (MIEN) show a characteristic pattern of longer duration and milder symptoms, which is different from pancreatic fistula after standard pancreatectomy. This study aimed to analyze the factors influencing clinically-relevant POPF (CR-POPF) after MIEN, investigate and develop a personalized predictive model for accurate prediction of CR-POPF.
Detailed description
Minimally invasive enucleation (MIEN) has been widely used in managing benign and low-grade malignant pancreatic tumors, showing better protection of pancreatic function and better long-term outcomes compared to standard pancreatectomy. However, the incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after MIEN is higher compared to standard resection, mainly since a large part of the pancreatic wound is exposed, and the main pancreatic duct may be exposed or injured, etc. POPF is the most important postoperative complication, and it has become a major constraint to the conduct of pancreatic MIEN. Although risk factors and predictive models for POPF in standard pancreatic surgery have been reported in the past, no predictive models have been reported specifically for MEN. With the increasing adoption of MIEN, there is an urgent need for a predictive model to guide the treatment and prognosis of POPF. Therefore, this study aims to conduct a cohort study, with data prospectively collected and retrospectively analyzed. The result of this study will provide a valuable reference for the development and application of MIEN.

Inclusion criteria
1. Age between 18 and 70 years, regardless of gender. 2. Benign or low-grade malignant tumor of the pancreas. 3. Patients evaluated according to guidelines that indicate a need for surgery or a strong request for surgery. 4. Feasibility of performing minimally invasive pancreatic tumor enucleation based on preoperative imaging evaluation. 5. Patients with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1. 6. Willingness to comply with the follow-up programme of the study and other protocol requirements. 7.
