Abstract
s / Pancreatology 13 (2013) e1–e20 e4 postoperative bleeding between the resection groups. There was no difference in resection margin status (R0 in 85 PDVR (37%) and 397 PD (48%) p1⁄40.09). Conclusion: This study demonstrates no significant difference in perioperative mortality in the three groups. It also demonstrates a similar overall survival in the PD and PDVR groups, significantly better compared to SB. The group also comprises C Coldham, A Saleh, A Al-Hilli, G Spoletini, S Aroori, J Hammond, G Bond-Smith, Q Jalal, J Terrace, Y Puri and G Preziosi. Take-home message: Portal vein resection in locally advanced pancreatic cancer confers a survival benefit over surgical bypass, has a comparable survival to standard resection and is a safe procedure when performed in specialist HPB units.
