Diagnostic Laparoscopy in the Preoperative Staging of Pancreatobiliary Cancer

Not Applicable

• Conditions: Pancreatic Cancer

• Registration Number: NCT02479984
• Lead Sponsor: National Cancer Center, Korea

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the role of routine Staging Laparoscopy in patients with potentially resectable pancreatobiliary cancer.

Detailed Description

To evaluate the role of routine staging laparoscopy in patients with potentially resectable pancreatobiliary cancer. All analyses are performed using SAS version 9.1.3 for Windows (SAS institute, Cary, NC). Clinical and pathological variables will be analyzed using the χ2 test (or Fisher's exact test) and the Student's t test, depending on the normality of the distribution. P-values of \< 0.05 are considering statistically significant.
