Study Overview

Influence of Local Anesthetic Administration on the Cancer Recurrence Rate After Pancreatic Oncologic Surgery

Study aims to compare the influence of intravenous lidocaine and peridural ropivacaine on postoperative long and short term outcome in patients with pancreatic cancer undergoing surgery. As short term endpoints: postoperative complications and resumption of bowel function. Long term endpoints include: 1 and 3 year recurrence and mortality.
