This study aimed to examine the survival and outcomes of patients with pancreatic cancer presenting with acute pancreatitis.  \nMethods: A retrospective review was conducted of alcohol-abstinent adult patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer between February 2002 and February 2024 at a single tertiary care center. Patients with and without acute pancreatitis were compared with respect to clinical characteristics, tumor features, management strategies, and outcomes.  \nResults: A total of 284 patients were diagnosed with pancreatic cancer during the study period, of whom 84 met the inclusion criteria. Among these, 24 presented with acute pancreatitis. Sixty control patients without acute pancreatitis were matched for comparison. There were no significant differences between the groups in terms of demographics or comorbidities. Tumor stage, location, and histological subtype were also comparable. Acute pancreatitis was not associated with improved survival (p ¼ 0.252). Patients in the acute pancreatitis group experienced significantly longer hospital stays (p ¼ 0.044) and had a higher rate of sudden cardiac arrest (p ¼ 0.032). Conclusion: The presence of acute pancreatitis in patients with pancreatic cancer is not associated with earlier diagnosis or improved survival outcomes. Although acute pancreatitis may lead to earlier clinical evaluation, it does not confer a prognostic advantage. Further studies are needed to clarify the clinical significance of acute pancreatitis in pancreatic cancer.  \n1 Department of General Surgery and Urology, Faculty of Medicine, Jordan University of Science Technology, Jordan 2Department of Pathology and Microbiology, Faculty of Medicine, Jordan University of Science Technology, Jordan  \nCorresponding author:  \nAbdel Rahman A Al Manasra, Department of General Surgery and Urology, Jordan University of Science and Technology, Faculty of Medicine, Irbid, P.O.

It is the 11th most common cancer in men and women.1 The asymptomatic nature of early-stage PC profoundly affects its prognosis. Approximately 8% of PC cases are expected to survive for 5 years following diagnosis, and approximately 15% of cases are considered treatable when detected early.2  \nPC accounts for approximately 1% of acute pancreatitis (AP) cases, suggesting that AP may serve as an early sign of the disease.2 ","cbCainMrKyGWKvhI","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainMrKyGWKvhI","pdf",400470,"English","# Abstract\n## Objective\n## Methods\n## Results\n## Conclusion\n# Introduction\n## Epidemiology and clinical course\n# Methods\n## Study design and data collection\n## Survival analysis","[{\"question\":\"What was the study’s objective?\",\"answer\":\"To examine survival and outcomes in pancreatic cancer patients who present with acute pancreatitis.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the study conducted and who was included?\",\"answer\":\"A retrospective review of alcohol-abstinent adults diagnosed with pancreatic cancer between February 2002 and February 2024 at a single tertiary center.\"},{\"question\":\"Does acute pancreatitis improve survival in pancreatic cancer?\",\"answer\":\"No. Acute pancreatitis was not associated with improved survival and also did not confer a prognostic advantage.\"}]","Acute pancreatitis does not confer a survival benefit in pancreatic cancer - A 22-year retrospective analysis | PDF",1790125033,25]
