| Abstract | Background The latest 8th edition of the AJCC staging system emphasizes the importance of tumor size however, the clinical significance of the combination of tumor location with tumor size remains unknown. Methods We conducted this study to investigate the prognostic role of tumor location in T1 resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Resectable PDAC patients from Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database (2004–2014) were selected for the propensity score matching analysis. We used matched cohort to analyze the relationship between clinicopathologic features and survival of patients. Result Eight thousand, four hundred nine patients were included in the propensity score matching analysis and 4571 patients were selected for final analysis. In T1 patients, the patients with pancreatic head tumor had worse prognosis compared to the patients with body/tail tumors. Multivariate analysis result showed that pancreatic body/tail location was an independent indicator for better chances of survival in T1 PDAC patients (hazard ratio, 0.69; 95%CI, 0.52–0.93; P = 0.01). The modified staging system was more efficient than the AJCC 8th staging system. Conclusion Modified staging system exhibited a good assessment of the survival rate. The tumor location is a good prognostic indicator for T1 resectable PDAC patients. Modification of T1 subgroup according to tumor location exhibited favorable survival prediction effects. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
