Pancreatic fistula complicates up to 15% to 25% of pancreatic resections, especially with soft, normal pancreas, and is most common after distal pancreatectomy. A new synthetic, absorbable hydrogel sealant has recently been developed and tested for sealing of human aorta, bronchi, and dura; it is FDA approved as a lung sealant in humans. Our objective was to test the efficacy of the sealant in preventing pancreatic leaks in a dog model of distal pancreatectomy.
