Our understanding of pancreatic tumors is changing thanks to recent advances in the field. New diagnostic techniques and imaging tests have improved the early diagnosis of these lesions, and as a result, the growing number of R0 surgical resections has meant a better prognosis for patients. Further, minimally invasive laparoscopic approaches have increased postoperative comfort.Presenting the latest research in the field, this book will appeal to clinicians in a wide range of medical specialities, including gastroenterologists, general physicians, and abdominal and biliopancreatic surgeons.
