Jejunal or Ileal Exocrine Drainage in Pancreas Transplantation: Impact on Gastrointestinal Function
CONCLUSIONS: Long-term outcomes were comparable between our patient groups. Catastrophic complica-tions occur in a minority of cases, requiring salvage surgery. More complications occurred with ileal anastomosis, but this approach allows graft pancreatectomy and formation of loop ileostomy, avoiding a more proximal stoma in clinically unstable patients. Further studies are needed to examine the impact of enteric anastomosis site.PMID:37584539 | DOI:10.6002/ect.2022.0342
