Background: Survival outcomes after pancreatectomy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma may be biased by right-censoring. We herein analyzed a large dataset with no censored events for up to 5 years and dynamically investigated the impact of known prognostic factors, accounting for unobserved tumor characteristics.
Methods: Consecutive patients undergoing pancreatectomy from 2000 to July 2015 were included.
