Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Incidence of complications at 30 days after surgery
Postoperative complications were defined by Clavien-Dindo. Grade 1: Any deviation from the normal postoperative course without the need for pharmacologic treatment or surgical, endoscopic, and radiologic interventions. Allowed therapeutic regimens are drugs as antiemetics, antipyretics, analgetics, and diuretics, and electrolytes and physiotherapy. This grade also includes wound infections opened at the bedside. Grade 2: Requiring pharmacologic treatment with drugs other than such allowed for grade I complications. Blood transfusions and total parenteral nutrition are also included. Grade 3: Requiring surgical, endoscopic, or radiologic intervention 3a: Intervention not under general anesthesia 3b: Intervention under general anesthesia Grade 4:Life-threatening complication (including CNS complications) requiring IC/ICU management. 4a: Single organ dysfunction (including dialysis) 4b: Multiple organ dysfunction Grade 5: Death as a result of complications

Secondary Outcome Measures

Postoperative hospital stay
from the date of the operation to the date of discharge
