| Improving resectability and survival in patients with primary duodenal carcinoma. |
| Additionally, accurate determinations on extent of disease and resectability are essential to improve outcomes in this cancer. |
| Some institutions use neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radiation therapy to try to improve the resectability potential of locally advanced cancers. |
| We hypothesized that any CA 19-9 elevatindicatesates biologically borderline resectability. |
| In cases of non-resectable liver metastasis with potential resectability after down-staging, intensive systemic chemotherapy should be applied to reach the aim of secondary resectability. |
| A number of new and innovative strategies have been developed to increase resectability rates. |
