On the basis of the results of treatment of 105 patients with locally advanced ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreatic head the authors present the results of work over a period of time since 1999 to 2009. In the main group the combined treatment was used for 51 patients: the non-adjuvant selective chemoembolization of the pancreatic head adenocarcinoma was performed, than standard gastropancreatoduodenal resection with lymphodesection and 6 cycles of adjuvant chemoinfusion in celiac trunk were completed. In control group standard gastropancreatoduodenal resection was performed. In the group of combined treatment the 1-, 2-, 3-year survival rates consist of 80.4%, 58.8% and 43.1%, respectively. The average life span was 22.3+/-2.1 months. The average life span of 54 patient of control group was 8.4+/-2.1 months and a common 3-year survival consists of 13%. There was no lethality after the performance of X-ray endovascular procedures and gastropancreatoduodenal resection. Postoperative complications reliably didn't differ in both groups.
