Surgery for exocrine pancreatic cancer--who are the 5- and 10-year survivors?

Abstract:

:38 of 306 patients survived beyond 5 years after resection of an exocrine pancreatic carcinoma during a period from 1971 to 1993. Amongst the long-term survivors there were 12 patients with ductal, 22 with ampullary, 3 with distal bile duct and 1 with duodenal cancer. An active operative strategy was employed in order to resect the tumor whenever this was surgically possible. In a a retrospective analysis we have identified prognostic factors influencing long-term survival. The long-term prognosis was largely dependent on the tumor entity. Ampullary carcinomas had a significant advantage in terms of long-term survival over all other tumor entities. Other prognostic factors associated with long term survival were curative tumor resection, absence of lymphatic and distant metastases and a low tumor malignancy.
