Treatment options for advanced pancreatic cancer: a review.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Surgery may set the basis for a potential cure or would provide the best achievable quality of life in locally advanced or metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). However, survival extension with this approach would be scarce and not exempt from adverse events, thus preventing its recommendation in an alre...
