Brief summary

In our multicenter retrospective study, preoperative CA 19.9 levels predicts the presence of lymph node metastasis at final histology in patients underwent pancreatoduodenectomy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma .

Detailed description

A retrospective analysis have been conducted on more than 2.000 patients underwent pancreatoduodenectomy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma radiologically resectable at the preoperative staging. Preoperatory levels of CA 19.9 were measured in order to identify a relation with nodal involvement at the pathological staging.
