Background Comparing the effects of C-shaped embedded anastomosis and pancreatic duct-jejunal mucosal anastomosis on the incidence of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) to find a better pancreaticojejunal anastomosis method that can reduce the occurrence of complications during the operation and benefit the patients. Methods A retrospective subresearch method was used to select the clinical data of patients who have undergone pancreaticoduodenectomy in our hospital from December 2019 to March 2021. The indicators to be collected for this study include gender, age, body mass index, preoperative liver function (total bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase, and albumin), preoperative comorbidities (diabetes, chronic pancreatitis), and pancreatic condition (texture, pancreatic duct diameter). The patients were divided into two groups according to the method of pancreaticojejunostomy: C-shaped embedded anastomosis group (n = 38) and pancreatic duct-jejunal mucosal anastomosis group (n = 30). The duration of pancreaticojejunostomy, biliary-enteric anastomosis, gastrointestinal anastomosis, intraoperative blood loss, upper abdominal surgery history, pathological type, intraoperative blood loss, pancreaticojejunostomy time, combined pancreatic fistula, biliary fistula, hemorrhage, and abdominal infection were observed and compared. According to the different methods of pancreaticojejunostomy during operation, they were divided into group A: C-shaped embedded pancreaticojejunostomy group (38 cases), and group B: pancreatic duct-jejunal mucosal anastomosis group (30 cases). The postoperative complications were compared between the two groups, and the observed indicators were analyzed with statistical methods. Results The average pancreaticojejunostomy time in group A was 32.13 ± 4.52 min, and the average pancreaticojejunostomy time in group B was 43.23 + 4.31 min. The difference was statistically significant (p < 0.05). Neither group A nor group B had a grade C fistula. The incidence of biochemical fistula in group A was 21.05% (8/38), and the incidence of biochemical fistula in group B was 13.3% (4/30). The difference was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). The incidence of grade B fistula in group A was 5.20% (2/38), and the incidence of grade B fistula in group B was 26.67% (8/30). The difference was statistically significant (p < 0.05). There were no perioperative deaths in the two groups. Conclusion According to the results of data analysis, it can be seen that both the two types of pancreaticojejunostomy have good clinical effects, but that in terms of reducing the grade of pancreatic fistula, the C-shaped embedded pancreaticojejunostomy is obviously better and safer. At the same time, the C-shaped embedded pancreaticojejunostomy can shorten the time of pancreaticojejunostomy and is easier to operate, thus worthy of clinical promotion.
