Key inclusion & exclusion criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

- the presence of pancreatic fistula (PF) (verification of serum lipase concentration
in drained fluid, findings on imaging modalities: endoscopic retrograde
cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), helical computed tomography(hCT), magnetic
reissonance imaging (MRI), ultrasonography (USG) or intraoperative surgeon's
verification - any or some or all of them)

- good general status (Karnoffsky > 80, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) scale
0 or 1; see Appendix 2);

- NRS and MUST evaluation - low/ medium risk patients not requiring parenteral
nutrition as the essence treatment option,

- no PF's complication requiring special treatment present, such as intraabdominal
abscess formation, pleuropneumonia, bleeding, paralytic ileus, etc. Complications
will be diagnosed and treated according to generally accepted medical knowledge,
standards and procedures.

- in case of neoplastic patients: no confirmed neoplastic dissemination nor distant
metastases;

- no severe concomitant disease (heart failure, COPD, CABG, etc.);

- no history of known allergies or drug intolerance;

- informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

- PF diagnosis uncertain;

- poor general status (Karnoffsky <80, ECOG > 1);

- the presence of serious complications; see above

- recent history of severe heart, lung, kidney or liver failure;

- the history of allergies or drug intolerance;

- severe malnutrition requiring combined treatment (PN+EN)
