Braun anastomosis lowers the incidence of delayed gastric emptying following pancreaticoduodenectomy : a meta-analysis

BACKGROUND: Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is one of the most frequent complications following pancreaticoduodenectomy. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the impact of Braun enteroenterostomy on DGE following pancreaticoduodenectomy.

METHODS: A systematic review of the literature was performed to identify relevant studies. Statistical analysis was carried out using Review Manager software 5.3.

RESULTS: Eleven studies involving 1672 patients (1005 in Braun group and 667 in non-Braun group) were included in the meta-analysis. Braun enteroenterostomy was associated with a statistically significant reduction in overall DGE (odds ratios [OR] 0.32, 95% confidence intervals [CI] 0.24 to 0.43; P <0.001), clinically significant DGE (OR 0.27, 95% CI 0.15 to 0.51; P <0.001), bile leak (OR 0.50, 95% CI 0.29 to 0.86; P = 0.01), and length of hospital stay (weighted mean difference -1.66, 95% CI -2.95 to 00.37; P = 0.01).

CONCLUSIONS: Braun enteroenterostomy minimizes the rate and severity of DGE following pancreaticoduodenectomy.
