ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at two different surgical methods for removing tumors from the pancreas and liver. The researchers want to see how these methods—open surgery versus minimally invasive surgery—affect important factors like patient survival, hospital stay duration, complication rates, and overall costs. By comparing these techniques, the study aims to find out which approach might be better for patients.

To be eligible for this trial, you need to be at least 18 years old and have had surgery to remove a pancreatic or liver tumor at Methodist Dallas Medical Center between January 2006 and December 2020. If you’re chosen to participate, you can expect to provide information about your health and recovery after surgery. The trial is currently recruiting participants, so if you or someone you know fits the criteria, this could be a valuable opportunity to contribute to important medical research.
