Abstract

Pancreatic cancer has a high mortality and morbidity and its incidence has increased over the years. Our objective was to analyze the demographic and clinical data among pancreatic adenocarcinoma patients who presented to the University Surgical Unit, CSTH from 2018 to 2021. Of the 103 patients included, majority were males above the age of 60. The commonest presentation was epigastric pain (54%). 46% were resectable at the time of diagnosis but 50% of the study population were lost to follow up due to a multitude of reasons.

期刊介绍: The Ceylon Medical Journal, is the oldest surviving medical journal in Australasia. It is the only medical journal in Sri Lanka that is listed in the Index Medicus. The CMJ started life way back in 1887 as the organ of the Ceylon Branch of the British Medical Association. Except for a brief period between 1893 and 1904 when it ceased publication, the CMJ or its forbear, the Journal of the Ceylon Branch of the British Medical Association, has been published without interruption up to now. The journal"s name changed to the CMJ in 1954.
