Pancreatic cancer is the 10th most common malignancy and the 4th largest cancer death cause in adults [1]. Surgery offers the only chance of curing these patients. Complete surgical resection is associated with a 5-year survival rate of between 20 and 30 % [1]. About 48,960 people (24,840 men and 24,120 women) will be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. About 40,560 people (20,710 men and 19,850 women) will die of pancreatic cancer [2]. Rates of pancreatic cancer have been fairly stable over the past several years. Pancreatic cancer accounts for about 3 % of all cancers in the US, and accounts for about 7 % of cancer deaths [3]. The average lifetime risk of developing pancreatic cancer is about 1 in 67 (1.5 %). We review all information’s and method during past 20 years. |
