pancreatic neck is developed. The gastroduodenal artery is ligated, confirming continued perfusion of the hepatic artery. If the gallbladder is present, it is removed.
The common bile duct is dissected circumferentially and is divided. The stomach is divided proximal to the pylorus with a surgical stapler. Just distal to the ligament of Treitz, the proximal jejunum is divided and the jejunal mesentery as well as the ligament of Treitz are taken down with an energy device. The proximal jejunum and the fourth portion of the duodenum are then rotated under the superior mesenteric vessels.
The pancreatic neck is divided over the portal vein, and the pancreatic head is rotated laterally and dissected from the portal vein. The periarterial vascular and lymphatic tissue between the uncinate process and the superior mesenteric artery is divided, and the head of pancreas and duodenum are removed from the abdomen and immediately placed in cold balanced-electrolyte preservative solution.
On the back table, the pancreatic head specimen is immediately prepared by flushing the gastroduodenal artery stump with cold preservative solution. The duodenum is removed and the pancreatic duct is cannulated with a 5 French pediatric feeding tube (Fig. 32.2a).
Next, attention is turned to removing the body and tail of the pancreas. The splenic artery is dissected and tagged but not yet ligated near its origin, the superior margin of the pancreatic body. Similarly, the splenic vein is tagged, taking care to preserve the coronary vein. Once the pancreas is dissected free from the sur­rounding structures, the splenic vessels are ligated and the distal pancreas and spleen are removed from the abdomen and placed in cold preservative solution.
On the back table, the spleen is removed sharply. The splenic vein is opened along its length to exsanguinate the specimen, and the splenic artery is flushed with cold preservation solution. The pancreatic duct is cannulated with a 5 French pediatric feeding tube, which is sutured in place (Fig. 32.2b, c). The pancreatic body and tail are packaged with the head, and the pancreas is then taken on ice to the islet cell laboratory for processing.
A 5 French KMP catheter to be used for islet infusion is threaded into the portal vein to the bifurcation via a tributary of the middle colic vein. The catheter is sutured to the transverse mesocolon. Reconstruction is undertaken with a retrocolic end-to-side choledochojejunostomy. Gastrointestinal continuity is restored with an antecolic Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy. The abdomen is closed with interrupted fascial sutures, allowing an opening for the KMP catheter to exit at the inferior aspect of the incision. The fascial sutures where the catheter emerges are placed, but not tied.

Islet Cell Preparation

The prepared pancreas is transferred to the cGMP cell processing facility. A modi­fied Ricordi method is utilized for islet harvest [9]. Isle ts are released from the exocrine and connective tissues of the gland via enzymatic and mechanical diges­tion. Collagenase (Liberase MTF, Roche, Indianapolis, IN USA) is infused

intraductally and/or injected directly into the pancreas for distension. The solution is perfused through a closed heated circuit to optimize enzymatic effect, and aliquots are examined periodically to determine timing of optimal islet separation. The islets are then separated by centrifugation. Islet yield, viability, function, and sterility are assessed. The isolated islets are then resuspended in 5% albumin solution with prophylactic antibiotic (cephazolin) and with heparin (70 U/kg body weight).

Islet Transplantation

The patient is admitted to the intensive care unit intubated and sedated following surgery. Once islet preparation is complete, the patient is transported to the inter­ventional radiology suite, where catheter placement at the portal venous bifurcation is confirmed under fluoroscopy and the islets are infused by gravity through the catheter. Portal venous pressures are measured before, during, and after trans­plantation, as the portal system is a noncompliant system, and volume infusion can significantly raise portal venous pressure. Large increases in pressure and pressures greater than 30 mmHg have been shown to correlate with an increased incidence of portal vein thrombosis. Therefore, pressures greater than 25 mmHg prompts a delay in the infusion for 5 to 15 min. If the pressure does not come down in that time, the remaining islets can be infused into the peritoneal cavity. A completion portal venogram is performed (Fig. 32.3). The catheter is removed after transplant, and the venous branch clipped in the wound. The previously placed fascial sutures are tied and the skin closed.
Other centers perform intraoperative islet infusion, keeping the patient under anesthesia in the operating room during the islet harvest and autotransplanting the islets into the portal vein under direct visualization.
Technical Pearls for Total Pancreatectomy with Islet Autotransplantation
• Perfusion of the pancreas should be maintained during surgery to mini­mize warm ischemic time by ligating the vascular supply only when the organ is ready to be removed.
• Careful attention should be taken to preserve the left gastric (coronary) vein to maintain gastric vascular outflow and to minimize the incidence of postoperative delayed gastric emptying.
• A pylorus ablating procedure can be utilized to reduce the incidence of postoperative delayed gastric emptying.
• A Roux-en-Y alimentary reconstruction may improve posto perative gas­tric emptying and reduce risk of marginal ulceration when utilizing the pylorus ablating procedure with antrum intact.

Postoperative Care

The patient is then transported back to the intensive care unit and extubated. Blood glucose levels are checked every 30 min for 2 h and then hourly thereafter. An insulin infusion is used to maintain blood glucose levels between 70–110 mg/dL. This is discontinued on postoperative day 3 and transitioned to low-dose long-acting insulin and sliding scale short-acting insulin, as needed. All patients are maintained on some dose of long-acting insulin except those with significant concerns for hypoglycemia, in order to rest the islets during engraftment.
A low-dose heparin infusion (250 U/h) is begun on the morning of postoperative day 1 if the hemoglobin has been stable. This is continued for 3 days, and the patient is transitioned to oral aspirin 81 mg.
A duplex ultrasound of the portal venous system is performed on the first postoperative day and again prior to discharge, to evaluate for portal vein throm­bosis, which can be other wise unrecognized and is well treated with therapeutic anticoagulation.

The islet preparation is sent for culture, and if gram stain or the final culture is positive, the patient is given prophylactic antibiotics to cover the offending organism for 3 days. The positive islet cultures do not seem to translate into meaningful clinical infections [10].
Postoperative pain control is achieved with a combination of epidural anesthesia, ketamine infusion, and intravenous narcotics. Non-narcotic adjuncts are maximally utilized. The ketamine infusion is tapered in 24 h, and the epidural is removed on the third day after surgery. Intravenous narcotics are slowly tapered with the addition of oral narcotics, as the patient is able to tolerate PO intake.
The nasogastric tube is removed on the first postoperative day and full liquids are begun, including oral nutritional supplements. Patients are advanced to full diabetic diet on the second day after surgery, as tolerated. Oral pancreatic enzymes are administered with diet. Early ambulation is supported [11].

Potential Complications

Complications associated with TPIAT are those seen with other major pancreatic surgeries, with the notable exception of postoperative pancreatic fistula.
Complications specific to islet autotransplantation include hemorrhage (from the anticoagulation given at infusion), portal vein thrombosis, and systemic inflam­matory response. Acinar mantle cells surround the islets to keep them stable and intact. These cells, however, are a source of tissue thromboplastin, which is thrombogenic. Anticoagulation is administered with the islets during infusion to prevent portal vein thrombosis. Tissue thromboplastin as well as other factors associated with exocrine pancreatic tissue can incite systemic inflammatory response.

Long-Term Outcomes

After TPIAT, patients can expect pain relief and improvements in quality of life. On the Short Form Quality of Life questionnaire, significant improvements in all domains as early as 6 months postoperatively have been demonstrated by multiple centers. Narcotic weaning may be challenging, depending on patient history, sup­port system, coping skills, and physician management. Thirty percent of patients will be insulin-free long-term (25% of adults, 55% of children) and 90% will have some demonstrable function of autotransplanted islets (serum c-peptide levels >
0.6 ng/ml) long-term [13] 1214]. Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency requires lifelong oral pancreatic enzyme supplementation and monitoring of nutritional health [ 15 ].

Necrotizing Pancreatitis: Best Approaches

Attila Nakeeb and Nicholas J. Zyromski

Introduction

In the United States approximately 290,000 patients develop acute pancreatitis annually. More than 80% of cases of acute pancreatitis are due to either alcohol consumption or gallstone disease. More uncommon causes include metabolic dis­orders, trauma, tumors, and iatrogenic injuries (ERCP, surgery). The severity of acute pancreatitis ranges from edema to necrosis of the gland. The edematous form of the disease (mild acute pancreatitis) occurs in about 80–85% of patients and is self-limited, with recovery in a few days. In the 15–20% of patients wi th the most severe form of pancreatitis, hospitalization is prolonged, and commonly associated with the systemic in flammatory response syndrome (SIRS), multi-organ failure, and infection of the pancreatic necrosis. In these patients, mortality can be as high as 20% [1, 2].

He was started on broad-spectrum antibiotics and taken to interventional radiology for placement of a percutaneous drain into the infected fluid collection (Fig. 33.2). After percutaneous drainage his clinic course stabilized, and at four weeks he was taken to the oper­ating room for a video-assisted retroperitoneal pancreatic debridemen t (VARD). Postoperatively he was able to be extubated, and his renal function recovered. Follow-up CT 1-month post debridement showed near complete resolution of his peripancreatic and pancreatic necrosis (Fig. 33.3).

Pathophysiology and Determination of Severity

Acute pancreatitis is a consequence of the intra-acinar cell cleavage of trypsinogen to trypsin, with subsequent activation of other enzym es. The local inflammatory response in the pancreas is associated with the liberation of oxygen-derived free radicals and cytokines, including interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, IL-8, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFa), and platelet-activating factor (PAF) [3]; these mediators play an important role in the transformation of a local inflammatory response to systemic illness. The revised Atlanta classification of acute pancreatitis [4] stratifies patients with acute pancreatitis into mild, moderately severe, or severe categories based on the presence of organ failure and the presence of local or systemic complications. Organ failure is assessed by the modified Marshall scoring system (Table 33.1). Organ failure is defined by a score of two or more for the respiratory, cardiovas­cular, or renal systems. Local complications include acute peripancreatic fluid collections, pancreatic pseudocysts, acute necrotic collections (sterile or infected),

and walled of pancreatic necrosis (sterile or infected). Patients with mild pancre­atitis have no evidence of organ failure or local or systemic complications. Moderately severe acute pancreatitis is defined by transient organ failure (resolves within 48 h) and/or local or systemic complications without persistent organ failure. Severe acute pancreatitis is characterized by persistent organ failure of one or multiple systems.

Medical Therapy

Initial therapy for patients with pancreatitis is mostly supportive. Severe acute pancreatitis is divided into two clinical phases; an early vasoactive and a late septic phase. The vasoactive phase typically occurs during the first 2 weeks and is dominated by the consequences of SIRS. Severe pancreatitis is associated with a marked increase in microvascular permeability, leading to large volume losses of intravascular fluid into the tissues, thereby decreasing perfusion of the lungs, kid­neys, and other organs. The single most important elem ent in preventing multiple organ failure is vigorous fluid resuscita tion with electrolyte solutions in order to optimize cardiac output and to maintain hemodynamic stability. The management of the first phase of severe pancreatitis is summarized here:
Management of the First Phase of Severe Pancreatitis
• Fluid resuscitation
• Respiratory support
• Cardiovascular support
• Relief of pain
• Limitation of systemic complications
• Treatment of metabolic complications
• Nutritional support
• Prevention of infection
