Brief Summary

Very few surveys have been carried out about oncosurgical decisions made in patients with pancreatic cancer (PC), and none have established whether the therapeutic approaches differ between low/medium and high volume centers. A survey was sent out to centers from Spanish Group of Pancreatic Surgery (GECP) asking about usual pre, intra and postoperative management of PC patients and describing five imaginary cases of PC corresponding to common scenarios that surgeons regularly assess in oncosurgical meetings. Investigators define consensus when 80% of answers were equal.
