Abstract

Distal pancreatic cancer has the characteristics of insidious onset, high malignancy, strong invasiveness, low R0 resection rate, and poor prognosis. The 5-year overall survival rate is lower than 5% [1]. Radical resection is still the only way to cure distal pancreatic cancer. R0 resection is the key factor affecting the long-term survival of patients [2–4]. Increasing the R0 resection rate of distal pancreatic cancer, delaying the time of recurrence, and reducing the local recurrence rate have always been hot topics and difficulties in pancreatic surgery research.
