This study is comparing two types of surgeries for treating pancreatic cancer: Laparoscopic Pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) and Open Pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD). A pancreaticoduodenectomy is a surgery to remove part of the pancreas and surrounding organs. The study will look at short-term results and complications of each surgery type. It aims to understand which method is safer and more effective for patients.
Key Points:
- The study is for adults (18+) who have been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and are eligible for either LPD or OPD.
- Participants should not have other serious health issues or have been in another clinical trial recently.
- Participants need to agree to the study and sign a consent form.
Joining this study could help doctors learn more about the best ways to treat pancreatic cancer. However, it's important to consider your health, commitments, and any potential risks before participating.
