Imperative to reflect on and refer to guidelines such as NCCN to deliver optimal cancer care.
Guideline-concordant care is particularly important in cancer patients, who face long-term care.

Unsurprising and valuable to have documented support
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy for left 👈 sided resectable #PDAC
🪡 72% of US received adjuvant
💉 NAT had better OS (53 🆚 37 months)
🤏 Tumor size and 🧪 elevated CA19.9 correlates with benefits of NAT
And now… time for RCT! 💪

Totally agree
Possibly one of the greatest privileges of being a doctor is to give a patient/family proper bad news and do it in a way that they then thank you for being caring, informative, open and honest.
Can’t say you enjoy it but can take pride in doing it well

Always a challenge to balance the risks of long term malignancy vs over-surveillance in side branch IPMN. We keep these patients plugged in with our clinic with the help of trained APPs
Long term natural history of BD IPMN 🍇 beyond 10 years of follow-up
🧐 316 patients 🇺🇸 median FU 13 years
🚨 At 10 years 24% WF / 8% Malignancy
📈 Risk of cancer overall 9X population
🎞️ Dynamic evaluation needed to stratify risk!
