This study evaluated the impact of reconstructed portal vein/superior mesenteric vein (PV/SMV) morphology on the long-term nutritional status following pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Twenty-four patients who underwent PD with PV/SMV resection and reconstruction without tumor recurrence for over 9 months after the operation were enrolled in the study. Three-dimensional models were constructed from computed tomography images obtained 3-6 months postoperatively. The pressure (p) at the inlet and turbulence dissipation rate (ε) at the outlet were investigated in the models. Patients with values of either p or ε above the upper interquartile range were classified as the poor flow group. The prognostic nutritional index improvement rate was significantly lower at 9 postoperative months in the poor flow group than in the good flow group (P = 0.016). This finding indicates the utility of a CFD analysis for evaluating the reconstructed PV/SMV morphology.
本研究使用计算流体动力学(CFD)评估了重建门静脉/肠系膜上静脉(PV/SMV)形态对胰十二指肠切除术(PD)后长期营养状况的影响。本研究纳入了24例行PV/SMV切除及重建且术后9个月以上无肿瘤复发的PD患者。根据术后3 - 6个月获得的计算机断层扫描图像构建三维模型。在模型中研究入口处的压力(p)和出口处的湍流耗散率(ε)。p值或ε值高于上四分位数范围的患者被归类为血流不良组。术后9个月时,血流不良组的预后营养指数改善率显著低于血流良好组(P = 0.016)。这一发现表明CFD分析在评估重建的PV/SMV形态方面具有实用性。
