Pancreatic carcinoma accounts for the most dismal survival among all malignancies with 5-year survival rates approaching 5%. The reason for this, besides the inherent biologic nature of the disease, is the fact that the patients tend to present late in the disease. We present a review of the current published data on cystic neoplasms of the pancreas, which though rare, constitute an important subgroup of pancreatic neoplasms that have a better prognosis and are potentially curable lesions.
胰腺癌是所有恶性肿瘤中生存率最差的一种,5 年生存率接近 5%。造成这种情况的原因除了疾病本身的固有生物学性质外,还因为患者往往在疾病晚期才出现。我们回顾了目前已发表的关于胰腺囊性肿瘤的资料,这些肿瘤虽然罕见,但构成了具有更好预后和潜在可治愈病变的胰腺肿瘤的一个重要亚组。
