International validation of the distal pancreatectomy fistula risk score: evaluation in minimally invasive and open surgery

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

The preoperative D-FRS showed insufficient discrimination to identify patients who develop POPF after DP irrespective of the surgical approach. Novel preoperative POPF risk scores are needed, considering the standard minimally invasive approach and the widespread use of neoadjuvant therapy.
