Short- and Long-Term Outcomes After Multimodal Treatment of Pancreatic Duct Leakage in Patients With Chronic Pancreatitis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVES: In patients with chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic duct leakage is associated with a prolonged disease course and serious complications. We aimed to assess the efficacy of this multimodal treatment of pancreatic duct leakage. METHODS: In a retrospective design, patients with chronic pancreatitis, an amylase content greater than 200 U/L in either ascites or pleural fluid and treated between 2011 and 2020, were evaluated. The primary end point was treatment success. RESULTS: Twenty-seven patients (22 males, median age 60, median American Society of Anesthesiologists score 3) were included.Endoscopic retrograde pancreatography was performed in 23 patients (85%) with transpapillary stenting of the main pancreatic duct in 22 patients (96%). Pancreatic sphincterotomy and dilation of the main pancreatic duct were done in 14 patients (61%) and 17 patients (74%), respectively. Twelve patients (44%) were treated with somatostatin analogs, parenteral nutrition, and were "nil by mouth" for a median of 11 days (range, 4-34 days). Six patients (22%) had extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy due to pancreatic duct stones. One patient (4%) was referred for surgery. All 23 patients (100%) were treated with success after a median of 21 days (range, 5-80 days). CONCLUSIONS: Multimodal treatment of pancreatic duct leakage is effective, with minimal need for surgery.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
