Line 1: Line 1:
In patients with pancreatic cancer, surgery is the primary modality of treatment.
==Physical examination==
Extrapancreatic disease requires palliative therapy and curative resection is not performed in such patients.Patients with unresectable disease are treated with chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy as a part of adjuvant or neoadjuvant therapy.
==References==
Curative resection is not contraindicated in all patients with vascular invasion. Involvement of the portal or superior mesenteric vein can be resected and reconstructed with the help of splenic, saphenous or internal jugular veins. However, the involvement of arteries such as the hepatic, celiac or superior mesenteric are contraindications to resection.
{{reflist|2}}
Various methods of surgical resection may be employed and each of these has its own sets of risks and perioperative complications. The facts are discussed by the patient and surgical team before arriving at a well-informed decision.
The method of surgical resection depends on the following features:
*Locally invasive characteristics of the neoplasm
*Size
*Location
Methods of curative resection options include:
**Distal Pancreatectomy
*Total pancreatectomy
*Pancreaticoduodenectomy, where pylorus may or may not be spared on an individual basis


The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) has recommended certain guidelines on resectability of pancreatic neoplasms:
{{WH}}
*Patient selection is based on:
{{WS}}
**Resection margins
**High probability of cure
**Patient's age
**Comorbidities
European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) has certain guidelines on the treatment of metastatic pancreatic cancer:
*Chemotherapy not preferred
*Gemcitabine is preferred over 5 FU
*Treatment is symptomatic with bypass surgery or stent placement for gastric outlet obstruction or obstructive jaundice
In case of locally advanced disease which is unresectable, the following methods of treatment are preferred:
Microwave ablation
Photodynamic therapy
Irreversible electroporation
Photodynamic therapy
High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU)
Iodine-125–cryosurgery
Iodine-125
Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT)
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA)

Metastatic disease/ Advanced pancreatic cancer which is unresectable:
The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) has recommended guidelines for treatment in patients based on their performance status.
In order to predict survival of patients in various stages of pancreatic cancer, the performance status of a patient is a major prognostic factor. Patients with poor prognostic factors have poor performance status. This includes-<ref name="pmid22996141">{{cite journal |vauthors=Tas F, Sen F, Odabas H, Kılıc L, Keskın S, Yıldız I |title=Performance status of patients is the major prognostic factor at all stages of pancreatic cancer |journal=Int.

Metastatic disease
Large tumor
Severe weight loss
In patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic disease with good performance status
Preferred treatment: FOLFIRINOX
In patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic disease with good performance status with intolerance to FOLFIRINOX
Preferred treatment:Paclitaxel protein bound+ Gemcitabine
In patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic disease with poor performance status
Preferred treatment: Gemcitabine monotherapy
In patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic disease with poor performance status refractory to Gemcitabine:
Preferred treatment: Capecitabine or capecitabine+erlotinib
One year survival of FOLFIRINOX (leucovorin+5-lfuorouracil [LV5-FU]+oxaliplatin+irinotecan)>Gemcitabine
One year survival of Gemcitabine+ Erlotinib> Gemcitabine
One year survival of Gemcitabine+ Capecitabine≥Gemcitabine 
One year survival of Gemcitabine+ nanoparticle albumin-bound (nab)-paclitaxel> Gemcitabine

NEW TREATMENTS
Irinotecan in an encapsulated form inside a nanoliposome is being used in advanced pancreatic cancer patients who have been earlier been treated using gemcitabine-based chemotherapy.
Liposomal Irinotecan is used along with leucovorin and fluorouracil.

ADJUVANT THERAPY
== History and Symptoms ==
The use of gemcitabine as adjuvant therapy is considered a standard form of therapy following surgical resection in pancreatic cancer patients.
NEOADJUVANT THERAPY
Neoadjuvant therapy may be used as a form of therapy due to the following reasons:
Toxic effects of chemotherapy can be tolerated more easily before surgery as compared to after resection
Shrinkage of tumor with neoadjuvant therapy makes resection easier and improves patient prognosis
Systemic treatment for cancer involving various systems improves prognosis
No therapy is considered as first line therapy under this category.Decisions for treatment are made on an individual basis.


SURGERY
* History should include:
** Appearance of bowel movements
** Travel history
** Associated symptoms
** Immune status
** Woodland exposure

Pancreaticoduodenectomy (Whipple Procedure)
{{WH}}
It is mainly performed for tumors located in:
{{WS}}
Periampullary region
Duodenum
Bile duct (Cholangiocarcinoma)
Pancreatic duct
Head of pancreas
Whipple procedure involves removal of the following components due to common blood supply:
Stomach antrum
Gallbladder
Duodenum
Head of pancreas
After removal of the above structures, the biliary and distal pancreatic ducts are anastomosed to the jejunum to facilitate surgical drainage.


This procedure is associated with several morbidities:
==Other Imaging Findings==
Postoperative abcess
* [[Endoscopy]]
Wound infection
* [[Barium enema]]
Anastomotic leak
* [[Colonoscopy]]
Delay in gastric emptying
* [[Sigmoidoscopy]]
Pylorus sparing Whipple procedure:
The pylorus may be spared as a modification of Whipple procedure to decrease gastric emptying due to antrectomy. This significantly reduces the incidence of nutritional deficiencies arising from this surgery.


==Other diagnostic studies==
== Other Diagnostic Studies ==


The European Society for Medical Oncology states that the only curative therapy is surgical resection.
* Breath hydrogen test
Ten percent is the five year survival of patients with pancreatic cancer.
Patients with node-positive tumors have very poor long term survival.


Distal Pancreatectomy
* [[HIV test]]ing for those patients suspected of having HIV
This procedure has a limited use in curative resection of pancreatic cancer.
It is mainly performed for tumors located in:
Body of pancreas
Tail of pancreas
This form of surgery has fewer morbidities than the Whipple procedure.


==
Distal Pancreatectomy involves the following components:
Separation of the distal pancreas bearing the tumor from the normal tissue
Resection of the affected portion
Oversewing of the distal pancreatic duct


This procedure is associated with several morbidities:
==Overview==
Pancreatic endocrine insufficiency
Bleeding
Leakage of pancreatic stump


Total Pancreatectomy
==References==
{{reflist|2}}


{{WH}}
{{WS}}


It is the least preferred due to high mortality rate.
===Pathophysiology prev===
It is mainly performed for tumors located in:
<div style="-webkit-user-select: none;">
Neck of the pancreas.
{| class="infobox" style="position: fixed; top: 65%; right: 10px; margin: 0 0 0 0; border: 0; float: right;"
Due to involvement of neck, patients develop insulin dependent DM.
