Dr. Rick Greene and Dr. Fadi Dahdaleh discuss the effect of operative approach on overall readiness to commence adjuvant therapy in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy, hypothesizing that minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy improves rates and time to return to intended oncologic therapy compared with open pancreaticoduodenectomy. Dr. Dahdaleh is author of “Surgical Approach does not Affect Return to Intended Oncologic Therapy Following Pancreaticoduodenectomy for Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma: A Propensity-Matched Study.”
Dr. Dahdaleh is an attending surgical oncologist at Northshore-Edward-Elmhurst Health in Chicago and adjunct clinical assistant professor of surgery at Rush Medical College, Chicago, IL.
