Research advances on anatomical and molecular biological study of perineural invasion in pancreatic cancer / 中华肝胆外科杂志

ABSTRACT

The phenomenon of perineural invasion in pancreatic cancer occurs more easily.It can cause pain and tumor recurrence,and result in poor prognosis.The perineural invasion of pancreas cancer is closely related to the anatomical basis of pancreas and nerve tissue as well as the changes in the tumor microenvironment.Multiple factors in the microenvironment take part in the development of perineural invasion,meanwhile,the tumor tissue itself can also change the microenvironment.This article is to overview the research on the anatomy and molecular biology of perineural invasion of pancreas cancer.
