A cancer that develops within the pancreas falls into two major categories: (1) cancers of the endocrine pancreas (the part that makes insulin and other hormones) are called "islet cell" or "pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors or PNETs". Islet cell cancers are rare and typically grow slowly. Islet cell tumors often release hormones into the bloodstream and are further characterized by the hormones they produce (insulin, glucagon, gastrin, and other hormones). and (2) Cancers of the exocrine pancreas (the part that makes enzymes). These are more common and dangerous as they usually remain asymptomatic till late stages of spread of disease.

Surgery is the only potentially curative treatment for pancreatic cancer. The surgical procedure most commonly performed to remove a pancreatic cancer is a Whipple procedure (pancreatoduodenectomy) or a more refined procedure called pylorus preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy which we specialize in. The latter procedure has the advantage of preserving the entire stomach resulting in ability to take full meals (due to preservation of reservoir capacity of stomach), and also its function (aiding Vitamin B12, iron and calcium absorption). It often comprises removal of a portion of the stomach, the duodenum (the first part of the small intestine), pancreas, and a portion of the main bile duct, lymph nodes, and gallbladder. Unfortunately, some patients have pancreatic tumours that are too locally advanced to completely remove or have metastatic spread at the time of diagnosis. Even these patients, with help of multimodality treatment comprising chemotherapy, surgery and if needed radiotherapy, have a good chance at cure.
