Introduction. The number of patients with cystic formations of the pancreas has increased significantly recently. Some of the patients need open or minimally invasive surgery. The implementation of ERAS (Enhanced recovery after surgery) protocols has been proved to be effective in orthopedics, bariatric and colorectal surgery. However, safety and feasibility of implementation of accelerated rehabilitation protocols in patients with cystic formations of the pancreas who underwent resection and resection-drainage interventions have not been sufficiently studied.The aim of the study was to assess the effectiveness and safety of implementation of the developed accelerated rehabilitation protocol in patients with cystic pancreatic formations who have undergone resection and resection-draining interventions.Material and methods. This research is a retrospective-prospective, single-center study. The study included 110 patients with cystic formations of the pancreas of various etiologies. All patients were divided into two groups: the control group consisted of 55 patients, their perioperative management was carried out according to standard protocols, and the experimental group consisted of 55 patients, their perioperative management was carried out according to the accelerated rehabilitation protocol developed in the clinic. All patients included in the study were exposed to surgery: resection and resection-draining interventions in various modifications were performed.Results. Patients in the studied groups were comparable by gender, age, body mass index, ASA score, preoperative albumin level. No statistically significant differences were found in the duration of the operation, intraoperative blood loss, or the frequency of blood transfusions. The overall complication rate was significantly lower in the experimental group compared with the control group (38,2% versus 58,2%, p = 0,03). Postoperative recovery of the gastrointestinal function was also faster in the experimental group. Thus, in the experimental group, the average time to the gas discharge was 2,1 0,8 days; in the control group - 3,1 1,1 days (p = 0,01); the average time to the first stool was 3,2 1,9 and 4,2 1,2 days, respectively (p 0,001). The total duration of the postoperative hospital bed per day was significantly lower in the experimental group compared with the control group (11,8 7,7 vs 16,2 13,2 days, respectively, p = 0,02).Conclusions. The study demonstrated safety and effectiveness of implementation of accelerated rehabilitation protocols in patients with cystic pancreatic formations who have undergone resection and resection-draining interventions. Implementation of the protocols allows reducing the duration of the postoperative hospital bed per day, incidence rate of complications, and also accelerating the gastrointestinal function recovery.
