Trends in Postoperative EPI Symptoms (IMAGE)
Caption
This graph illustrates the mean EPI-Q scores over time for patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) and distal pancreatectomy (DP). The scores, representing the severity of EPI symptoms, decrease significantly over the first year post-surgery, with a steeper decline observed in DP patients. The data underscores the critical three-month period for symptom management and highlights the efficacy of PERT in improving patient outcomes.
