Background!#!Pancreatic metastasis is a rare cause for pancreas surgery and often a sign of advanced disease no chance of curative-intent treatment. However, surgery for metastasis might be a promising approach to improve patients' survival. The aim of this study was to analyze the surgical and oncological outcome after pancreatic resection of pancreatic metastasis.!##!Methods!#!This is a retrospective cohort analysis of a prospectively-managed database of patients undergoing pancreatic resection at the University of Freiburg Pancreatic Center from 2005 to 2017.!##!Results!#!In total, 29 of 1297 (2%) patients underwent pancreatic resection due to pancreatic metastasis. 20 (69%) patients showed metastasis of renal cell carcinoma (mRCC), followed by metastasis of melanoma (n = 5, 17%), colon cancer (n = 2, 7%), ovarian cancer (n = 1, 3%) and neuroendocrine tumor of small intestine (n = 1, 3%). Two (7%) patients died perioperatively. Median follow-up was 76.4 (range 21-132) months. 5-year and overall survival rates were 82% (mRCC 89% vs. non-mRCC 67%) and 70% (mRCC 78% vs. non-mRCC 57%), respectively. Patients with mRCC had shorter disease-free survival (14 vs. 22 months) than patients with other primary tumor entities.!##!Conclusion!#!Despite malignant disease, overall survival of patients after metastasectomy for pancreatic metastasis is acceptable. Better survival appears to be associated with the primary tumor entity. Further research should focus on molecular markers to elucidate the mechanisms of pancreatic metastasis to choose the suitable therapeutic approach for the individual patient.
