Postoperative outcomes. (A) Non–cancer-specific survival (continuous lines) and overall survival (dotted lines) in the 2 study cohorts. (B) Cumulative risk of developing new-onset diabetes in patients with no stigmata of diabetes at the time of surgery. The prognosis of pancreatoduodenectomy is mainly tumor-related. Duct occlusion with neoprene glue helps to overcome safely the early postoperative period in patients at high risk of pancreatic fistula, although does not protect against cancer-related outcome and is followed by increased occurrence of long-term diabetes.
