MERLO, Ignacio G. et al. Long-term survival after pancreatic cancer surgery. Medicina (B. Aires) [online]. 2021, vol.81, n.5, pp.800-807. ISSN 0025-7680.

Pancreatic cancer is an aggressive disease associated with poor results regarding long term survival. Surgical treatment along with new onco logic treatments have improved the survival of these patients in international experience reports. The aim of this study was to describe overall survival and disease-free survival after pancreatectomy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. A retrospective study of consecutive patients undergoing pancreatic resection due to PDAC or undifferentiated carcinoma from January 2010 to January 2020 in a single tertiary center was performed. Overall, 242 patients underwent complete pancreatic resections for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma or undifferentiated carcinoma. Median overall survival was 22.8 months (95% CI: 19.5-29) and survival at 1, 3 and 5 years were 72%, 32.5% and 20.8% respectively. The median disease-free survival was 13.8 months (95% CI: 12-17.6) and 1, 3- and 5-years disease-free survival were 56.1%, 21.8% and 19.4% respectively. The groups of patients that completed adjuvant treatment showed a better overall survival (p < 0.0001).
