Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is the only possible treatment indicated for the most complex injuries (grades IV and V). Although, it is commonly a one-stage procedure, damage control surgery corroborates with a two-stage PD performed on unstable trauma victims. OBJECTIVES Compare the mortality rate of one and two-stage PD in trauma patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic electronic search of PubMed, Elsevier, LILACS, Scielo, and Capes was conducted on all studies written in English, Portuguese and Spanish with no restriction to publication dates. Review articles, case reports, editorials, animal studies, pediatric and non-trauma scenarios were excluded. RESULTS We selected twenty-two publications, with a total of 149 duodenopancreatic trauma victims who underwent PD, with an overall mortality rate of 42 patients (28.2%). Two-stage PD was exclusively performed on unstable patients (N = 31) with a mortality rate of 38.7%. In a sample of 79 patients submitted to a one-stage PD, 38 patients (48.1%) were unstable with a mortality rate of 34.2%. One-stage PD for stable patients had a mortality rate of 14.6% DISCUSSION Since 1983, hemodynamic state impacts on surgery methods and strategies for trauma patients. Prior to that, one stage PD was not restricted to stable patients. CONCLUSION There were no differences in mortality rates when comparing two and one-stage PD in hemodynamic unstable patients, who had duodenopancreatic lesions (grades IV or V). BACKGROUND We aimed to investigate the association between prehospital times and outcomes of patients who had hypotension at the scene after trauma incidents. METHODS We retrospectively analysed records from a nationwide database (2004-2017) of adults (aged ≥15 years) who were hypotensive (systolic blood pressure less then 90 mmHg) at the scene after trauma. The endpoint was in-ho
