note = "Locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma may require resections of the portal vein and/or its major tributaries to achieve tumor extirpation, albeit with the potential for increased morbidity and mortality. However, major venous resections can impart complete tumor extirpation and thereby a survival advantage compared with resections with residual microscopic disease.",
