Abstract

Objective

The aim of this was to define 30-day outcomes of patients treated with colectomy and en bloc pancreatectomy for invasive colon cancer.

Methods

ACS NSQIP was used to identify patients who underwent colectomy and pancreatectomy concomitantly (n = 65) for colon carcinoma. Patients with en bloc pancreatectomy were compared to a propensity score-matched control group for 30-day outcomes.

Results

Sixteen patients underwent a pancreaticoduodenectomy with colectomy and 49 patients underwent a distal pancreatectomy with colectomy. There were 195 matched control patients. En bloc pancreatectomy (Whipple vs. distal pancreatectomy vs. control) patients had longer OR times (390 vs. 265 vs.137 min) and length of postoperative stay (12 vs. 10 vs. 6 days). The frequency of pulmonary complications (31.3% vs. 36.7% vs. 3.6%), blood transfusions (2.9 vs. 1.7 vs. 0.3 U), wound dehiscence, (18.8% vs. 6.12% vs.0.5%) and surgical site infection (43.5% vs. 34.7% vs.14.9%) were substantially higher in the pancreatectomy group (p < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in 30-day mortality between the pancreatectomy group and the control group (6.3% vs. 0% vs. 1.5% p = 0.25)

Conclusions

Perioperative outcomes with en bloc pancreatectomy and colectomy include increased pulmonary complications, blood transfusions, wound complications, and length of stay compared to patients treated with colectomy alone for colon cancer.
