Abstract

Selected patients with chronic pancreatitis can benefit from total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation. Patient selection is challenging and outcomes assessment is essential. A prospective database of total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation patients was reviewed. Attention was given to psychometric assessments, including Short Form-12 Quality of Life Survey (SF-12), Center for Epidemiologic Studies 10-Item Depression scale, and Current Opioid Misuse Measure in the preoperative period, and SF-12 in the postoperative period. One hundred and twenty-seven patients (76% women, mean age 40.5 years) underwent total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation. Preoperatively, the mean SF-12 physical quality of life score (physQOL) was 27.24 (SD 9.9) and the mean psychological QOL score (psychQOL) was 38.5 (SD 12.8), with a score of 50 representing the mean of a healthy population. Mean improvements in physQOL relative to baseline at 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years post surgery were 7.1, 5.8, and 7.8, respectively, which represented significant change (all p < 0.001). Mean improvements in psychQOL relative to baseline at 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years post surgery were 3.9, 4.9, and 6.6, which also represented signifi...Continue Reading

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.
