Abstract
null null Introduction null The presence of positive nodal disease (LND) and the number of lymph nodes involved (LNB) are known to be significant prognostic markers for resected adenocarcinoma of the pancreas. In addition, the ratio of the number of involved nodes to the number of nodes resected known as the lymph node ratio (LNR) is emerging as an important prognostic marker. The role of the resection margin (RM) as presently defined (R1 ≤...
