Introduction: Distal dile duct adenocarcinoma (DBDAC) is rare and usually not diagnosed before resection. Data on perioperative outcome and survival is scarce. The aim of this study was retrospective analysis in a large patient cohort.

Material and methods: Retrospective exploratory data analysis was performed on the basis of prospectively maintained databases from three high-volume academic centers (University Hospitals of Mannheim, Freiburg and Lübeck, Germany) for hepatopancreatic surgery. Data collection and analysis was performed with MedCalc 14.8.1. software.

Results: From 1993 to 2013, n=111 patients (73 male, 38 female, median age 68 years) resected for DBDAC with perioperative and long-term follow-up could be identified. Operations performed were pylorus preserving pancreatoduodenectomy (PPPD, n=97), Whipple procedure (n=11) and total pancreatectomy (n=3), including 16 portal venous resections (PVR). Median operation time was 402 min, with 35% intraoperative blood transfusion requirement. Perioperative grade B/C (ISGPS definition) pancreatic fistula, delayed gastric emptying and postpancreatectomy hemorrhage and reoperation rates were 27%, 14%, 22% and 19%, respectively, with a perioperative mortality of 7%. Overall median and 5-year survival was 28 months and 29%. BMI, operation time, intraoperative transfusion, PVR, reoperation and surgical margin status were significant predictors of survival in univariate analysis. In a multivariate Cox proportional hazards model, preoperative CA19.9, surgical margin status, tumor grade and reoperation were independent predictors of survival.

Conclusion: DBDAC is a rare entity and associated with a high operative risk in terms of pancreatic fistula, bleeding and perioperative mortality. Survival figures after resection are relatively favorable and influenced by the surgical parameters resection margin status and reoperation rate, as well as the biologic factors tumor grading and CA19.9 level.
