Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a prevalent and severe complication of pancreaticoenteric anastomosis; however, its accurate preoperative prediction is challenging. Multi-frequency MR elastography-based tomoelastography can quantify pancreatic mechanical properties (stiffness and fluidity), thus further improving the predictive performance of conventional MRI for postoperative pancreatic fistulas.
125 studies on the registry are indexed under Pancreatic Fistula; 27 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 157 is close to the median of 173 across 49 observational studies indexed under Pancreatic Fistula.

Postoperative pancreatic fistula
Any measurable drainage of amylase levels above three times the upper limit of the normal amylase level on or after the third postoperative day was considered the essential threshold of diagnosing postoperative pancreatic fistula.
Time frame: The participants were routinely examined on days 1, 3, 5, and 7 after surgery to determine fluid volumes and serum amylase levels.
