Antoniou Medicina End Surgery Treatment Ethical dilemma stage pancreatic cancer Pancreatic cancer is as an aggressive malignancy with low survival rates. We present the first case of an operation of acute mesenteric ischemia performed in a patient with end-stage pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Through this case, we also discuss raising concerns regarding the management of severe complications such as acute mesenteric ischemia in patients with progressed pancreatic carcinoma. How ethical is to leave patients untreated? The decisions for management of patients with advanced disease are strongly based on the expected quality of life, ethical principles, different religions and spiritualities, and the burden of healthcare cost. 2021 otro 2029-4174 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=694072824014 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/6940/694072824014/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/6940/694072824014/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/6940/694072824014/694072824014.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/6940/694072824014/movil https://doi.org/10.15388/Amed.2021.28.2.17 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=6940 Acta medica Lituanica application/pdf Vilniaus Universitetas Acta medica Lituanica (Lituania) Num.2 Vol.28 |
