Central pancreatectomy: an oncologically safe option to treat metastases of other neoplasms of the mid-portion of the pancreas?

摘要

Backgrounds/AimsStandard pancreatic resections are the current approach for patients with resectable, isolated pancreatic metastases of other neoplasms. However, the role of parenchyma-sparing pancreatectomies for such pathology is poorly investigated. The aim of the present study is to assess the oncological safety of central pancreatectomies for pancreatic metastases of other neoplasms.
