Brief Summary: A very common complication following distal pancreatectomy is leakage from the pancreas, or what is called a pancreatic fistula. We hypothesize that operative drains which create suction may contribute to the development of leakage from the pancreas. This study evaluates the effect of using non-suctioning drains to prevent the development of this complication.
Detailed Description: The most common complication following distal pancreatectomy is the developement of leakage from the remaining pancreas gland, which results in significant morbidity. Most surgeons leave dains at the time of surgery to prevent complications from pancreatic leakage. However, we hypothesize that drains which create continous negative pressure may contribute to the development of a pancreatic fistula. This study randomizes patients to suctioning versus non-suctioning drains. The primary endpoint is the development of pancreatic fistuale, as defined by the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery.
