摘要
Stage IV pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma(PDAC)is considered unresectable by the European Society for Medical Oncology(ESMO)-European Society of Digestive Oncology(ESDO)Clinical Practice Guidelines,and treatment for these patients,remains mostly palliative(1).In non-metastatic PDAC,and whenever feasible,surgery remains a crucial component,playing a key role in improving survival rates.While the general trend has been to prepare as many patients as possible for surgical intervention,the necessity for proper patient selection has become increasingly evident(2).
