ACOS Surgical Oncology In-Depth Review 2014 Pancreatic carcinoma Surgical management Douglas M. Iddings D.O., FACS FACOS Surgical Oncologist
Objectives • Review CT findings related to resectability. • Brief review of Whipple and RAMP procedures. • Reconstruction options for portal system. • A closer look at “borderline resectable”.
Questions • What CT findings are consistent with locally advanced disease? • According to the NCCN guidelines, what percentage of resections for body and tail lesions require an en bloc resection of an additional organ other than the spleen? • What are some potential advantages in neo-adjuvant therapy in “borderline resectable” patients?
Imaging Template for Pancreatic Cancer • Tumor size and location • Tumor and veins relationship – SMV, portal vein and splenic vein • Tumor and arteries relationship – SMA, celiac axis, common hepatic artery • Presence or absence of distant metastases – liver, lung, peritoneum MDACC Multidisciplinary Pancreatic Cancer Study Group
Portal vein & SMV anatomy Vena cava PV Splenic Vein SMV IMV may enter spl vein or SMV SMA Ileal branch of SMV Jejunal branch of SMV

Resectable defined • Resectable: No extension into the celiac, CHA, SMA stage I or II (cT1-3 +/- possible lymphadenopathy) • Borderline: The stuff in the middle • Locally advanced means unresectable: Involvement of the celiac, SMA encasement of >180°, stage III (cT4), aortic or caval involvement.

Pancreatic Cancer • 2,216 patients with panc adenocarcinoma 1990-2002 • 337 (15%) surgical resection (panc head/whipple) 4 periop deaths (1%); 5 additional pts lost to F/U • 91 (28%) of 328 actual 5-year survivors (4% of 2,216) Matthew Katz, Jason Fleming, Rosa Hwang, SSO 2008
Critical view • Retroperitoneal margin • Majority of surgery is done here • Majority of the blood loss

LRV IVC SMA SMV
Portal system resection • Important to obtain a negative margin • Data supports resection • Several reconstruction options • Often is the SMV that requires resection • Not portal vein
