Malignancy
NO
Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is a highly complex surgical procedure for tumors in the pancreatic head region, with a complication rate of approximately 30%. In particular, patients with obstructive jaundice require preoperative biliary drainage, which has been reported as a risk factor for severe surgical site infections (SSI) postoperatively. While some reports suggest that prophylactic broad-spectrum antibiotics can reduce SSI, current guidelines recommend the use of first-generation cephalosporins only on the day of surgery.
Since 2014, our department has determined perioperative antibiotic regimens based on bile culture and sensitivity results obtained during preoperative biliary drainage. Additionally, given the particularly high risk of SSI in patients undergoing preoperative biliary drainage, we have implemented a treatment strategy of administering antibiotics until postoperative day 3.
The aim of this study is to retrospectively evaluate whether extending antibiotic administration until postoperative day 3 (since 2014) reduces SSI compared to administration only on the day of surgery (before 2013) in patients who underwent PD after preoperative biliary drainage at our institution. This study may provide a basis for proposing a new perioperative antibiotic strategy to prevent SSI.
Efficacy
The primary outcome is the incidence of postoperative infections, including surgical site infection (SSI), intra-abdominal infection, and pancreatic fistula.

This study is a retrospective cohort study.
The study population includes patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) after preoperative biliary drainage between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2013, or between January 1, 2014, and December 31, 2023.
Patient selection was conducted with approval from the Ethics Committee of Wakayama Medical University, and informed consent was obtained using an opt-out approach.
Patients in the earlier period (2010-2013) received cefazolin within 24 hours postoperatively for surgical infection prophylaxis, in accordance with clinical guidelines. In contrast, patients from 2014 onward were treated with a different strategy, in which antibiotics were selected based on the culture results and antibiotic susceptibility of the preoperative biliary drainage samples and administered for three days postoperatively.
This study retrospectively examines medical records to determine whether there is a difference in the incidence of surgical site infections (SSI) between these two antibiotic administration strategies.
