Background: The pancreatic adenocarcinoma is an aggressive disease for which cure is only possible in less than 20% of the best cases. Adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy so far have improved symptoms with little, but significant, increase in survival rates.
Methods: Retrospective assessment of 40 patients admitted at Department of Radiation Oncology of the Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein between April 1993 and August 1999 was done.
