Abstract
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal malignancies, with increasing morbidity and mortality. Only 20% of all cases are candidates for surgical resection. Most locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) is deemed to be an unresectable disease because of the invasion of major vessels. Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is now increasingly applicable to treat LAPC. For the establishment of precise eligibility and the standardization of the IRE technique, a guideline is expected, aiming to improve safety, lead to reproducible outcomes, and facilitate further research into IRE. This article aimed to provide a set of technical recommendations for the treatment of LAPC by open IRE.
