The most common cause of external pancreatic fistulas is pancreatic surgery. Once a postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) has developed, about 95–98% of patients are treated with conservative therapy, which includes adequate drainage of exocrine secretions and/or peripancreatic fluid collections, with restriction of oral intake.
