Staplers in palliative bypass surgery for unresectable pancreatic cancer.

abstract：:The prognosis of patients with alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)-producing pancreatic cancer is generally very poor. We, however, present a case of a 33-year-old man who survived AFP-producing pancreatic cancer and its metachronous liver metastasis. The patient had undergone a curative total pancreatectomy for AFP-producing pan...
