摘要
BACKGROUND:/Objective: Preoperative treatment of resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is gaining popularity worldwide. However, the characteristics of tumors located in the pancreatic head (Ph), or those in the body or tail (Pbt), after surgery following neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NACRT) remain unclear. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the clinicopathological features, perioperative outcomes, and prognosis of patients with resectable PDAC who underwent NACRT followed by curative pancreatic resection, focusing on distinguishing between Ph and Pbt PDACs.
METHODS:We included 107 patients with resectable PDAC who underwent curative resection following NACRT between 2009 and 2023. Clinicopathological features, perioperative and prognostic outcomes, recurrence patterns, and prognoses were compared between Ph and Pbt PDAC groups.
RESULTS:Tumors were found in the Ph and Pbt in 64 and 43 patients, respectively. Albumin levels and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratios after NACRT were significantly lower in the Ph group than in the Pbt group. The Pbt group showed significantly higher rates of positive peritoneal lavage cytology and serosal, arterial, and portal vein invasion than the Ph group did. Overall and recurrence-free survival were similar between the two groups. The most common site of initial postoperative recurrence was the lung only in both groups; however, the rate of peritoneal dissemination only was significantly higher in the Pbt group than in the Ph group.
CONCLUSIONS:The prognoses based on tumor locations in the Ph and Pbt after surgery following NACRT are similar. Following the resection of resectable Pbt PDAC, the possibility of peritoneal dissemination recurrence should be considered.
