PaLeak as one of A) > 3-fold increased amylase in the drains beyond day six postop., B) need<br />
for interventional drainage for symptomatic fluid collections with high amylase content, or C)<br />
need for re-laparotomy with documented leakage. For further sub-analysis PaLeak requiring<br />
interventional or reoperative therapy was classified as clinically relevant PaLeak (clinPaLeak),<br />
PaLeak without consequence as ‘biochemical’ Leak (bioPaLeak).<br />
Results: The overall incidence of PaLeak was 12.5 %. 6.6 % had bioPaLeak not requiring therapy,<br />
3 % had PaLeak requiring drainage and 2.9% required re-laparotomy (clinPaLeak 5.9<br />
%).Univariate analysis of risk factors revealed that the absence of chronic pancreatitis and an<br />
increased creatinine (both p=0.05) were associated with a higer incidence of overall PaLeak.<br />
In multivariate analysis absence of chronic pancreatitis (p
