[Perioperative staging and the Münster TNM classification in ampullary and pancreatic cancer].
From 1974 to 1982 607 patients with diseases of the pancreas were treated at the Surgical University Clinic of Münster/West Germany. 256 of those suffered from pancreatic and 42 from ampullary cancer. All patients were grouped according to a TNM-System for pancreatic cancer developed for that particular purpose. Of the curative resections performed (n = 73) with a resection rate of 78.6% for ampullary and 15.6% for pancreatic cancer, a distinct preponderance of early stages (T1N0M0/T2N0M0 greater than 60%) was noticed for the first, of late stages for the latter (T1N0M0/T2N0M0 = 25%). The frequencies of distant metastases for all operations also differed significantly, being 9.5% respectively 43.4% at the time of operation (p less than 0.05). At the low mean survival time for palliative operations an mean survival time of 40.3 months for the Whipple operation was evaluated, of 28.0 months for total pancreatectomy. At the stage T1N0M0/T2N0M0 the mean survival time was greater than 63 months.
