Radboud University Medical Center
256 participants
Apr 17, 2023
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial (REMBRANDT) is to evaluate the effectiveness of adding an extra connection (i.e. 'Braun anastomosis') after standard reconstruction in pancreatic head resection in reducing the incidence of delayed gastric emptying.

Interventions
Participants will undergo open pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). The reconstruction technique will not be standardized. In addition to the reconstruction technique used, a side-to-side anastomosis will be created between the afferent and efferent jejunal limbs of the gastrojejunostomy (GJ) at 20 cm distance from the GJ. The anastomosis will be hand-sewn with monofilament PDS 3-0 one-layer running suture.
Participants will undergo open pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). The reconstruction technique will not be standardized. The surgeon is able to perform the PD as normally would be done (antecolic, retrocolic, pylorus-preserving or with distal gastric resecting).
