Advance in radical operation of pancreatic cancer / 国际外科学杂志

ABSTRACT

The resection rate of pancreatic cancer is low, but the surgical procedure may be the only method of cure for the patients with pancreatic cancer. Due to the further understanding of its biological char-acteristics and the development of modern instruments, the resection rate of affected patients has markedly increased and much progress has been made, and several consensuses on surgical principles have also been reached. This review summarizes the recent advance of surgical treatment of pancreatic cancer.
