Laparoscopic versus open pancreatic resection for ductal adenocarcinoma: separate propensity score matching analyses of distal pancreatectomy and pancreaticoduodenectomy
Abstract:AbstractBackground: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most leading causes of cancer mortality worldwide. Laparoscopic pancreatic resection (LPR) has been widely used in the treatment of benign and low-grade pancreatic diseases. It is necessary to expand the current knowledge on the feasibility and safety of LPR for PDAC. Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (LDP) and pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) are two main surgical approaches… Show more
