dc.description.abstractBackground:To ascertain the rate and factors affecting morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing Whipple Procedure. KEY WORDS:Morbidity,Whipple procedure, post operative complications INTRODUCTION: Pancreaticoduodenectomy, also called the Whipple operation, is a common operation in major centers worldwide. It is done mostly for periampullary cancers and very rarely for benign diseases. Over the years the operation and its morbidity and mortality have been subject to much research. Starting from the initial days postoperative mortality rate has come down but morbidity rate still remains high. Material & Methods:A study of 12 cases of whipple procedure carried out in dept of general surgery, VS AND SVP hospital from January 2019 to June 2020 OBSERVATION AND Results:There were 12 patients and half of them developed morbidity. Surgical site infection was the most common complication (33.33%) followed by pulmonary complications (16.67%) and bile leak (8.33%). Half of the Mortality rate was due to pulmonary complication. Conclusion:Pancreatoduodenectomy was studied with regards to morbidity and mortality in our hospital. The morbidity rate is comparable to that of other centres. Pulmonary complications were the most common cause of mortality. Preoperative Hypoalbuminemia is a significant predictor of postoperative morbidity. Surgical site infection was the most common morbidity. Whipple procedure is a complex procedure with comparatively less mortality, but more morbidity in our hospital.en_US
