Brief Summary

Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is a complex procedure performed in patients with malignant or benign tumors of the pancreatic head and periampullary region, associated with high morbidity and mortality. Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is the most common and clinically significant complication following PD. In this study, the investigators aim to determine the predictive risk factors for clinically related postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) in the preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative period in patients that underwent PD. The total number of 100 participants expected to be included in this research who underwent PD between 2025 and 2026.
