Comprehensive treatment of pancreatic cancer based on multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment
Journal Title: Journal of Clinical Hepatology - Year 2024, Vol 40, Issue 12
Abstract
Pancreatic cancer is a common malignant tumor of the digestive tract， and the incidence of pancreatic cancer has been gradually increasing in recent years. The main pathological types of pancreatic cancer include ductal adenocarcinoma， small gland carcinoma， and acinar cell carcinoma， among which duct adenocarcinoma is the most common pathological type. Multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment （MDT） is a new diagnostic and therapeutic mode for pancreatic cancer， and different medical teams， including hepatobiliary surgery， gastroenterology， endocrinology， radiology， and radiotherapy， are gathered to discuss the conditions of patients and develop treatment regimens and subsequent management measures， so as to determine the optimal individualized treatment regimen. With the continuous clarification and development of the concept of precision therapy and the discovery of related gene mutations， promising prospects and individualized treatment have been achieved for the treatment of pancreatic cancer， thereby providing opportunities for improving the treatment outcome of patients. This article analyzes the interaction between different disciplines under the model of MDT， discusses the development trend and directions of the treatment regimens for pancreatic cancer， summarizes the current research work for pancreatic cancer， and proposes the future research directions for MDT in pancreatic cancer.
