Abstract
Introduction

Significant celiac trunk or artery stenosis (CAS) is normally asymptomatic. However, when the arteries of the pancreatoduodenal arcade are occluded, it could trigger a visceral ischaemia. The objective of this study is to determine whether preoperative CAS is a risk factor for developing complications in patients subjected to duodenopancreatectomy (DPC).

Material and methods

We have retrospectively analysed 58 consecutive patients subjected to DPC. We have associated significant CAS with post-surgical outcome. In all cases a 16-channel multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) in three hepatic phases was performed. We have reviewed the pre-surgical MDCT focusing on the morphology of the celiac artery (CA), particularly in the presence or absence of significant stenosis (>50%).

Results

We found CAS >50% in 13 patients (22%). The overall mortality was 5% (3 patients). Serious complications developed in 16 (28%) patients, 8 (62%) of whom belonged to the group with significant CAS (P=.004). Ten patients (17%) had a pancreatic fistula, 5 (38%) vs 5 (11%) (P=.036); Fourteen patients (24%) needed new surgery, 7 (54%) vs 7 (16%) (P=.009); Seven patients (12%) had a haemoperitoneum, 4 (31%) vs 3 (7%) (P=.038), in the group with and without CAS, respectively.

Conclusions

Significant radiological CAS is a risk factor of serious complications after DPC. The study of the calibre of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) with MDCT should be routine before a DPC. The correction of a significant CAS should be evaluated preoperatively..

Resumen
Introducción

La estenosis significativa del tronco celiaco habitualmente cursa de forma asintomática. No obstante, cuando se interrumpe la arcada de las arterias pancreatoduodenales, puede producirse isquemia visceral. El objetivo de este estudio es determinar si la estenosis preoperatoria del tronco celiaco es un factor de riesgo de complicaciones en pacientes sometidos a duodenopancreatectomía (DPC).

Material y métodos

Hemos analizado retrospectivamente a 58 pacientes consecutivos sometidos a DPC. Hemos relacionado la estenosis significativa del tronco celiaco con la evolución posquirúrgica. En todos los casos se ha realizado un estudio mediante tomografía computarizada multidetector (TCDM) de 16 canales en tres fases hepáticas. Hemos revisado la TCDM prequirúrgica centrándonos en la morfología del tronco celiaco, especialmente la presencia o ausencia de estenosis significativa (> 50%).

Resultados

Encontramos estenosis del tronco celiaco > 50% en 13 pacientes (22%). La mortalidad total fue de 3 pacientes (5%). La morbilidad total fue del 62%. En 16 pacientes (28%) hubo complicaciones graves, de los que 8 (62%) pertenecen al grupo de estenosis significativa del tronco celiaco (p=0,004); 10 pacientes (17%) presentaron fístula pancreática, 5 (38%) vs. 5 (11%) (p=0,036); 14 pacientes (24%) necesitaron reoperación, 7 (54%) vs. 7 (16%) (p=0,009); 7 pacientes (12%) presentaron hemoperitoneo, 4 (31%) vs. 3 (7%) (p=0,038), en los grupos con y sin estenosis del tronco celiaco respectivamente.

Conclusiones

La estenosis radiológicamente significativa del tronco celiaco es un factor de riesgo de complicaciones graves tras DPC. El estudio del calibre de la AMS con TCDM debería ser sistemático antes de una DPC. Debería valorarse preoperatoriamente la corrección de la estenosis significativa del tronco celiaco.
