Abstract

The prognosis of pancreatic cancer is very poor, 40%-50% of patients have liver metastasis at the time of initial diagnosis, and only 15%-20% of patients have the chance of surgical resection. At present, there is no consensus on the treatment strategy of pancreatic cancer with simultaneous liver metastasis. Surgeons are still looking forward to surgical resection for patients with longer survival time. The application of neoadjuvant therapy and radiofrequency ablation may bring new breakthroughs in the treatment of pancreatic cancer with simultaneous liver metastasis. This article reviews the surgical, neoadjuvant and palliative treatment of pancreatic cancer with simultaneous liver metastasis. Key words: Pancreatic neoplasms; Liver; Neoplasm metastasis; Treatment outcome; Simultaneity
