Sussman (a), Jeffrey B. Matthews (b), Syed A. Ahmad (a) Abstract: Pancreatic fistula (PF) formation is a known complication of pancreatic surgery, pancreatitis, and pancreatic injury. When medical or endoscopic interventions fail to resolve PF, operation remains the only viable treatment option. Unfortunately, operation for the correction of PF is often difficult and associated with significant morbidity.
