5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to determine whether para-aortic lymph nodes(No.16) should be included in the lymphadenectomy during the pancreatoduodenectomy in order to improve the long-term survival of patients with pancreatic head ductal adenocarcinoma.
Detailed Description
Pancreatic cancer is now raised to the 7th leading cause of death. Surgical resection seems to be the unique curative therapy for pancreatic cancer. The pancreaticoduodenectomy is widely performed for the patients with pancreatic head cancer in recent decades. The lymphadenectomy is an indispensible procedure. In 2014, the International Study Group for Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) recommended a standard lymphadenectomy should include lymph node stations 5, 6, 8a, 12b1, 12b2, 12c, 13a, 13b, 14a, 14b, 17a, and 17b. However, no consensus was reached on Lymph node 16 in particular 16b1. There was no stronge evidence available concerning the impact on survival.
