Drain fluid and serum amylase concentration ratio is the most reliable indicator for predicting postoperative pancreatic fistula after distal pancreatectomy

Abstract Background Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a major complication of pancreatic surgery. Drain fluid amylase concentration (DAC) is considered a predictive indicator of POPF. However, other indicators related to postoperative drain fluid amylase status exist, and the most reliable...
