Pancreatoduodenectomy with Venous Resection or Palliative Therapy? A Meta-Analysis.
This review evaluated the risks and survival benefits of pancreatoduodenectomy associated with venous resection compared with palliative surgery. A systematic review with meta-analysis was performed. Higher overall survival was observed in the pancreatic resection group (HR = 4.000; 95% CI 2.800 to 5.200). However, the palliative group had fewer complications (RD = -0.170; 95% CI -0.260 to -0.070). There was no significant difference in the mortality rates (RD = 0.000; 95% CI -0.030 to 0.030). In centres with experience in pancreatic surgery, resection may be considered for locally advanced cancer and major venous invasion. Pancreaticoduodenectomy with vascular resection may improve survival for periampullary tumours compared with palliation therapy. However, pancreaticoduodenectomy with major venous resection has potentially higher morbidity than palliation therapy. Key Words: Pancreatoduodenectomy, Pancreatic neoplasms, Vascular surgical procedures.
