Description
Lingmin Jiang and co-authors report combined local therapy for advanced pancreatic cancer in a 2024 case study. The cancer kills most patients within five years, and surgery helps only a minority. A fifty year old woman had a tumor wrapped around key vessels, which barred removal. She had lived with belly pain for a year before admission.
Electric pulse ablation destroys tumor cells while sparing vessel walls. Radiation given during surgery then targets the tumor bed at high dose. The pair together gave her a favorable response, the team reports. Blood markers and liver tests framed her workup. The case supports paired local attacks where cutting fails.
