title: Improving trends with pancreatoduodenectomy.
abstract: This paer stresses the complete change in outlook associated with pancreatoduodenectomy at the Ellis Fischel State Cancer Hospital since 1963, the year that marks the implementation of step-wise surgical principles espoused by Newton regarding the performance of pancreatoduodenectomy with the minimizing of morbidity and mortality factors. Since 1963 only one hospital death has occurred at Ellis Fishcel State Cancer Hospital after pancreatoduodenectomy and this case was atypical.
