“…Sollinger, in an editorial published in 1996 (6), suggested that the external iliac vein should be completely exposed to avoid vascular thrombosis of the pancreatic graft, In the present study, the incidence of vascular thrombosis (6.1% and 7.1% for groups A and B, respectively) was within the values generally found for this type of procedure, and no statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups.…”

In this paper, the authors evaluate if the use of a venous drainage system in the cava vein (instead of the external iliac vein) presents differences in pancreatic transplantation. Between December 2000 and 2004, 105 pancreas-kidney transplants were performed. Patients in group A (n=49) underwent complete liberation of the right iliac vein for venous drainage. In group B (n=56), the venous drainage system was placed in the cava vein or in the confluence. Analyzed clinical parameters included: insulin replacement, vascular thrombosis in the graft, intraabdominal collections, graft loss, reoperation, and deaths. When compared to the external iliac vein, venous drainage to the cava vein did not result in significant differences. Venous drainage to the cava vein is a valuable alternative when the right iliac fossa has been previously approached. It is a practical, rapid procedure and it is not necessary to expose the internal iliac vein.

“…Fistulas originating from the pancreatic parenchyma generally present a benign development (31), whereas enteric fistulas result in severe intra-abdominal infection (32). The presence of a peripancreatic infection represents a risk situation, resulting in multiple processes and loss of the pancreatic graft in 30 to 50% of the cases (33).…”
