Objective: To evaluate risk factors for delayed gastric emptying(DGE)following pancreaticoduodenectomy(PD). Methods: There were 492 consecutive patients who underwent PD in Pancreas Center, the First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University between January 2012 and December 2014 were identified from a prospective database.There were 315 male and 177 female patients with a median age of 60.5 years.Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to investigate the independent risk factors for clinically relevant DGE(CR-DGE). Results: The overall incidence of DGE was 29.5%, with Grade B and C occurring at 4.3% and 5.9%, respectively.In multivariate analysis, pancreatic duct diameter less than 3 mm( OR =1.888, P =0.042), pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy( OR =2.627, P =0.005) and clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula( OR =2.740, P =0.007) were independently associated with CR-DGE.Other main complications such as postoperative pancreatic fistula, pyoperitoneum, intraabdominal infection were also associated with the severity of DGE(χ(2)=21.360, 14.422, 14.378; P =0.011, 0.002, 0.002). DGE patients had a significantly prolonged postoperative length of stay(31(24-41)d vs . 13(11-17)d) and increased medical cost((122 367.5±66 068.3)yuan vs . (78 200.7±27 043.9)yuan)(both P <0.01). Conclusions: Small pancreatic duct, underwent pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy and suffered postoperative pancreatic fistula might indicate a high risk of CR-DGE.
