Optimal fluid management for patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy

      The issue of optimal fluid management for patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) has drawn a great deal of interest and investigation in recent years.

      Pancreatoduodenectomy draws attention because the operation is long and, in the past, has required significant fluid administration. As a result, major fluid shifts between the interstitial and intravascular spaces occur in the operating room and postoperatively. In addition, while operative mortality has improved dramatically over the past half century, PD continues to be associated with a frustratingly high postoperative morbidity rate.
