Adenocarcinoma of the pancreas is becoming an increasingly common disease. The differential diagnosis of pancreatic adenocarcinoma is that of obstructive jaundice. Suspicious findings on history and physical examination can be confirmed with appropriate laboratory and radiologic testing. Approximately 20% of patients with small lesions and no metastatic disease may be cured with resection. The operative mortality and morbidity for major pancreatic resections is now sufficiently low to warrant a more aggressive approach to these patients.
胰腺腺癌正成为一种日益常见的疾病。胰腺腺癌的鉴别诊断是梗阻性黄疸的鉴别诊断。病史和体格检查中的可疑发现可通过适当的实验室和影像学检查得以证实。大约20%的小病灶且无转移性疾病的患者可通过手术切除治愈。目前，大型胰腺切除术的手术死亡率和发病率已足够低，足以对这些患者采取更积极的治疗方法。
