Abstract | Due to possible diagnostic misjudgment of tumor resectability, patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) might be exposed to non-radical resection or unnecessary laparotomy. With small extracellular vesicles (sEV) obtained by liquid biopsy, we aimed to evaluate their potential as biomarkers of tumor resectability, radicality of resection and overall survival (OS). Our prospective study included 83 PDAC patients undergoing surgery with curative intent followed-up longitudinally. sEV were isolated from plasma, and their concentration and size were determined. Fifty patients underwent PDAC resection, and thirty-three had no resection. Preoperatively, patients undergoing resection had higher sEV concentrations than those without resection ( |
