Late PPH occurred in 7.7% and 7.6% of patients, respectively. Late PPH significantly impacted the long-term prognosis, with a median survival of 20.7 months compared to 35.2 months (\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.009). The most frequent site of hemorrhage was the common hepatic artery, accounting for 22.6% of cases. Multivariate logistic analysis identified body mass index (BMI), preoperative total bilirubin (TBIL), preoperative prothrombin time (PT), and clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) as independent risk factors associated with late PPH. By integrating these four factors, the predictive model demonstrated concordance indices of 0.863 and 0.825 in the training and validation cohorts, respectively. The model's discriminative capacity was further assessed by categorizing the predicted probabilities of late PPH into two risk groups: low-risk (score \u22642) and high-risk (score &amp;gt;2).\n
