Postoperative morbidity is an additional prognostic factor after potentially curative pancreaticoduodenectomy for primary duodenal adenocarcinoma

Abstract: According to the present findings, the development of postoperative complications may be an additional prognostic factor after potentially curative pancreaticoduodenectomy for primary duodenal adenocarcinoma. This emphasizes the need for centralization to high-volume centers where an appropriate postoperative care can be delivered.

“…Another study showed a 3-year survival rate of 87.5% for patients with node-negative patients and 21% for node-positive cases [8]. In contrast, Malleo et al reported that the nodal status did not correlate with overall survival [16]. Other studies have reported that the ratio of positive lymph nodes to total number of lymph node specimens resected is also a significant prognostic factor [15, 17].…”

“…Morbidity and mortality rates associated with surgical treatment for resectable duodenal cancer are high. Reported morbidity rates are around 40 per cent, and mortality rates range between 0 and 8·5 per cent ( Table S3 , supporting information).…”

“…Surgical resection offers the only chance of cure. There are few published studies on outcomes after surgery owing to the rarity of this condition. These studies are characterized by a limited number of patients and long study periods, resulting in conflicting reported outcomes.…”

“…It is necessary to note that in our study only three (13.6 %) patients had positive resection margins, limiting the statistical significance. However, the lack of importance of resection margin status was also seen in other series [13,14].…”

“…Because of the rare nature of DAC there is limited information about the benefit of adjuvant or neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy and its effectiveness remains uncertain [5,6]. In contrast, several studies have proved the curative benefit of surgical therapy [4,[7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. Due to improvements in surgical technique and perioperative management, morbidity 1 3 and mortality rates have dropped consistently; 5-year survival rates average approximately 50 %, and reach up to 77 % in some series [4,14,15].…”
