The novel hydrogel sheet effectively prevents pancreatic fistulas and has promising clinical application potential.
Aim To evaluate the efficacy of a novel hydrogel sheet in preventing postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF). Background Postoperative pancreatic fistula is a life-threatening complication. As no study has reported the use of hydrogel sheets in preventing POPF, their effectiveness for that purpose remains unclear. Methods A novel hydrogel sheet made of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) was prepared by the freeze-thaw method. The pancreatic ducts and surrounding pancreatic parenchyma of rats were transected to induce a pancreatic fistula. Next, the sheet was attached to the transection site. Ascitic fluid amylase and lipase concentrations were measured. Neoveil(R), a nonwoven polyglycolic acid (PGA) felt, is already clinically used as an absorbable reinforcing material at pancreatic transection sites. Neoveil(R) was used for comparison, as was VIEWGEL(R), which is marketed as a wound dressing. Results The hydrogel sheet remained in place 48 hours postoperatively. The ascitic amylase concentrations in the control, VIEWGEL(R)-treated, Neoveil(R)-treated, and hydrogel-treated rats, respectively, were 4992.4 +/- 5355.7, 1068.4 +/- 269.1, 730.2 +/- 425.2, and 303.1 +/- 240.1 IU/L; the ascitic lipase concentrations were 2279.8 +/- 3395.2, 169.5 +/- 100.6, 90.4 +/- 71.0, and 86.8 +/- 59.8 IU/L. The ascitic amylase and lipase levels were significantly lower in the hydrogel group than in the other groups (P < .05). Conclusions This novel hydrogel sheet effectively prevents pancreatic fistulas and has promising clinical application potential.
