This video covers the surgical management of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. We cover the typical presentation of pancreatic cancer, the full workup involved (including when a biopsy is indicated), how to surgically stage the cancer, cancer treatment by stage (surgery vs neoadjuvant vs systemic therapy), and finally surgical details and postoperative complications such as POPF and DGE. As with all our cancer videos, these are based on the current NCCN guidelines, but those guidelines can rapidly change. We recommend using resources like these for a quick overview before you dig deep into more frequently updated resources for the latest changes.
