Methods The clinical data of 90 patients with pancreatic carcinoma of our hospital from 1989 to 2005 were analyzed retrospectively. Results The symptoms of pancreatic carcinoma were very complicated,the most common manifestations were bellyache,jaundice and weight loss. Main physical signs in these patients included abdominal tenderness,abdominal mass,hepatomegalia,gallbladder enlargement. Jaundice was the outstanding manifestation of pancreatic head cancer. Among all patients,16 cases accepted sugical resection(17.8%),and the 1-year,3-year,5-year survival rate were 22. 2%,11.1% and 2. 2% respectively. Our data showed that the most important prognostic factors which influenced life span were the surgical procedures,tumor size and location,histological differentiation,TNM stage. Conclusions Clinical manifestations of pancreatic carcinoma are related to TNM stage,tumor size and location,histology type,complication disease. Clinical symptoms only provide clue for diagnosis of pancreatic carcinoma. Laboratory and imaging examination will provide objective evidence for further diagnosis and prognosis in pancreatic carcinoma.
