Abstract
Preoperative sphincter of Oddi botulinum toxin injection is a novel and safe approach to decrease the incidence of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula after distal pancreatectomy. The results of the present trial suggest its efficacy in the prevention of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula and are validated currently in the German Federal Government-sponsored, multicenter, randomized controlled PREBOT trial.
