Title: Whether preoperative biliary drainage leads to better patient outcomes of
pancreaticoduodenectomy: A meta-analysis and systematic review
Version: 1 Date: 28 Dec 2024
Reviewer's report:
Thank you for coming out with such an important issue in the management of preoperative
biliary drainage before pancreaticoduodenectomy.
Please kindly go through the corrections made in the manuscript which has been uploaded.
You need to make the grammatical and language corrections.
All the procedure specific complications following pancreaticoduodenectomy has been defined
and graded by International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS). It is better to use the
term bile leak rather than biliary fistula.
Which definition of postoperative pancreatic fistula was considered 2005 or 2016 ISGPS
definition.
All patients underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy but one case has been quoted as hilar
cholangiocarcinoma.
When were the patients operated after preoperative biliary drainage? It would be great if the
optimum time to operate after PBD could also be obtained from this study
Which modality of PBD is better: ERCP vs PTBD; and in ERCP: ENBD vs plastic stent vs
SEMS.
Best wishes
