Predictors of Recurrence and Survival in Patients With Surgically Resected Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors.

abstract：:Abdominal and/or back pain is one of the most common symptoms in patients with pancreatic cancer. However, the cause of the pain and the clinicopathologic features of patients with pain have not been fully elucidated. We retrospectively determined the factors related to preoperative abdominal and/or back pain in 95 pa...
