Surgical aspects related to hereditary pancreatic cancer.
Familial Cancer 2024 April 26
The goal of surveillance programs for individuals at risk (IAR) from familial pancreatic cancer (FPC) families or families with other inherited tumor syndromes predisposing to the development of pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC), such as hereditary pancreatitis or Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, is the dectection and consecutive curative resection of early PDAC or even better its high-grade precursor lesions. Although the indication for surgery is quite established, the extent of surgery is not well defined due to the lack of evidence-based data. In addition, multiple factors have to be taken into account to determine an optimal personalized surgical strategy. This holds especially true since pancreatic surgery is associated with a relatively high morbidity and might impair the quality of life significantly. In this article the surgical aspects in the setting of hereditary PDAC are discussed.
