Abstract
It is not the merely the development, but severity of complications that significantly increase the cost of PD by increasing hospital stay. Strategies aimed at reducing intraoperative blood transfusion requirement as well as minimising the development of POPF can help reduce costs. Synchronous venous resections significantly increase costs independent of hospital stay. This study identified nine factors that may be included in the development of a preoperative nomogram that could be used in preoperative financial counselling of patients undergoing PD.
