The unresectable pancreatic head tumors develop obstructive jaundice and cholestasis during follow-up. Cholestasis is associated with complications and treatment options are endoscopic stenting (ES) and biliary bypass surgery (BBS).<\/p>\n
The aim of the current study was to compare the safety and efficacy of biliary bypass surgery (BBS) and endoscopic stenting (ES) for cholestasis in advanced pancreas cancer.<\/p>\n
This is a retrospective cohort of patients with cholestasis and unresectable or metastatic pancreas cancer, treated with BBS or ES. Short and long-term outcomes were evaluated. We considered the need for hospital readmission due to biliary complications as treatment failure.<\/p>\n
A total of 93 patients (BBS=43; ES=50) were included in the study. BBS was associated with a higher demand for postoperative intensive care (37\u00a0vs<\/i>.10%; p=0.002, p<0.050), longer intensive care unit stay (1.44 standard deviation\u00b12.47\u00a0vs<\/i>. 0.66\u00b12.24 days; p=0.004, p<0.050), and longer length of hospital stay (7.95\u00b12.99\u00a0vs<\/i>. 4.29\u00b15.50 days; p<0.001, p<0.050). BBS had a higher risk for procedure-related complications (23\u00a0vs<\/i>. 8%; p=0.049, p<0.050). There was no difference in overall survival between BBS and ES (p=0.089, p>0.050). ES was independently associated with a higher risk for treatment failure than BBS on multivariate analysis (hazard ratio 3.97; p=0.009, p<0.050).<\/p>\nCONCLUSIONS:<\/h2>\n
BBS is associated with longer efficacy than ES for treating cholestasis in advanced pancreatic cancer. However, the BBS is associated with prolonged intensive care unit and hospital stays and higher demand for intensive care.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
