Postoperative morbidity and mortality rates after en bloc VR are comparable with "standard" pancreatectomy procedures. Median survival of 15 months in patients with vascular invasion is superior to that of patients who undergo palliative therapy and nearly equals that of patients who are not in need for VR.

Based on the high frequency of PSMA overexpression in all stages and grades of prostate cancer and the high prevalence of PSMA overexpression, it can be speculated that increased PSMA expression may be related with prostate cancer development rather than progression. The known function of PSMA activating cell migration would be in line with the suggested role in cancer progression and the missing association between PSMA overexpression and tumor cell proliferation.
