    • ...especially appropriate for PD with PV–SMV resection because (1) it facilitates the exposure of SMA before pancreatoenteric continuity is interrupted, which can reduce the rate of nonradical PD when SMA is involved; (2) it avoids palliative resection owing to the involvement of the retroperitoneal margin which happens frequently in cases of invasion of the SMV; 12 (3) it shortens the vascular...

    • ...In this system, disease stage is determined by three factors: (1) the size of the primary tumor and its relationship to the celiac axis and superior mesenteric artery (T); (2) the presence or absence of regional lymph node involvement (N), and (3) the presence or absence of distant metastases (M). Cancers diagnosed as stage I by preoperative imaging are small and localized to the pancreas, and are therefore routinely resectable. Stage II disease is characterized by a primary tumor that extends into adjacent organs or involves regional lymph nodes, without distant metastases or invasion into the celiac trunk or superior mesenteric artery. Such disease is also often resectable. Significantly, the most recent edition of the AJCC system includes tumors with isolated portal or superior mesenteric vein involvement in this group, reflecting the increasing perception of such tumors as potentially amenable to surgery [...
