Quality of Life Changes After Pancreaticoduodenectomy for Periampullary Tumors, 2019-2021

111 patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy at the University Medical Center of Ho Chi Minh City were assessed for quality of life changes from preoperative status to 12 months post-surgery. The dataset includes demographics, comorbidities, tumor staging, complications, and survival data, analyzed using SF-36 questionnaires at five time points. It was created by Dat Tien Le and last updated in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling the impact of surgical complications on quality-of-life scores based on the reported postoperative fistula rate of 30.6%.
• Analyzing temporal recovery patterns in physical and emotional health domains using SF-36 scores collected at five time points.
• Identifying risk factors for poor quality-of-life outcomes based on variables like malignancy, comorbidities, and cholangitis mentioned in the results.

Strengths

• Longitudinal data with quality-of-life assessments at five specific time points over 12 months.
• Includes detailed clinical variables for 111 patients, such as tumor type, surgical approach, and complication rates.
• Prospective study design conducted at a single medical center from January 2019 to May 2021.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to a single center in Ho Chi Minh City.
