Diet group will be on no-fat diet including MCT-oil supplement starting right after surgery according to our pancreas ERAS-protocol.

This study group will follow normal ERAS-protocol after pancreas surgery and start normal diet after surgery. If chyle-leak is diagnosed then it will be treated with the same no-fat diet as the intervention group.

Lymph Leakage

Chyle Into Mesentery; Extravasation

Pancreatic Cancer

Complication of Surgical Procedure

In the diet, there is no long-chain triglycerides. Fat and protein needs are met with adding medium-chain-fat acid as oil and protein supplements to the diet. Diet has been constructed together with clinical nutrition specialist.

Prevention of Chyle-leak After Major Pancreatic Surgery

Post-operative chyle leak is diagnosed if drain fluids triglyserid content is above normal at post-operative day 3 (> 1,5mmol/l).

Patients who fill our study ciriteria are asked to join in on the study and then they are randomized in to two groups, interventional and control group

Dietary treatment with medium-chain triglyceride diet (MCT-diet) until resolution of CL.

Postoperative Chyle Leak

Removal of surgical drains despite persistent CL, without dietary restrictions or dietary treatment for CL.

Standard care irrespective of CL

Dietary treatment with MCT-diet until resolution of CL.

Infants in this arm of the study were fed their own mother's breast milk where the fat layer was removed by centrifugation. Prior to feeding, extra energy and nutrients were added to the defatted breast milk.

Infants in this arm of the study were fed a MCT-containing medical food which is the current standard of care.

Dietary Treatment of Infants With Chylothorax

The Effectiveness of Low Fat Breast Milk for the Treatment of Chylothorax in Infants Following Cardiothoracic Surgery: A Pilot Study

This outcome includes measurement of chyle drainage from chest tubes in the first 5 days after diagnosis of chylothorax and the number of days of chest tube drainage.

Infant weight, length and head circumference measurements were determined at study initiation and at the first post-discharge follow-up visit (within one-week of discharge) and again at the end of chylothorax treatment.

Average daily energy, protein and other nutrient intakes were calculated using milk volumes consumed (recorded in the medical record [in-hospital] or 3 day consecutive food records [after discharge]), analyzed breast milk fat composition values, milk nutrient values from the literature, product monographs and Food Processor SQL Ed v. 10.2 (ESHA Research).
