Participant Flow

Between June 2006 and November 2009, 244 patients were enrolled in this study, after excluding the 9 patients who refused to participate after initial agreement. After enrollment, 44 patients were excluded due to having unresectable or metastatic tumors, as determined intraoperatively

After enrollment, some patients were excluded due to (1) unresectable condition or metastasis found during surgery; (2) surgical rule violation; (3) inadequate case report form; or (4) pathologic diagnosis other than conventional ductal adenocarcinoma.

Measure
Standard Pancreatoduodenectomy
standard pancreatoduodenectomy Standard pancreatoduodenectomy: Standard pancreatoduodenectomy In standard resection, the lymph nodes around the pancreas head (LN 13, 17) and gallbladder (LN 12c) were removed without nerve dissection around the hepatic or superior mesenteric artery (SMA)
Extended Pancreatoduodenectomy
extended pancreatoduodenectomy Extended pancreatoduodenectomy: Extended pancreatoduodenectomy During extended resection, the lymph nodes around the common hepatic artery (LN 8), celiac axis (CA) (LN 9), peripancreatic area (LN 13, 17), hepatoduodenal ligament (LN 12), SMA (LN 14) and paraaortic area (LN16) between the CA and inferior mesenteric artery were dissected. All soft tissues around the hepatoduodenal ligament were completely dissected and skeletonized. The nerve plexus or ganglion on the right side of the CA and SMA was dissected semi-circumferentially.
