View ProfilePancreatic Cancer Treatment — Treatment Overview

Tumours in the head of the pancreas are typically treated with a Whipple procedure (pancreaticoduodenectomy), while tumours in the body or tail may be treated with a distal pancreatectomy. Both are major operations performed by specialised hepato-pancreatico-biliary surgical teams.
Whipple Procedure (Pancreaticoduodenectomy)
Head-of-Pancreas TumoursRemoval of the head of the pancreas, the duodenum, part of the bile duct and sometimes part of the stomach, followed by reconstruction of the digestive tract.

How to Select the Best Doctor for Pancreatic Cancer Treatment in India?
Choosing the right surgical gastroenterology surgeon for pancreatic cancer treatment is one of the most important decisions in your treatment journey. A few factors are worth weighing before you decide:
Experience and Expertise
Look for a surgeon with a strong track record in pancreatic cancer treatment specifically, not just surgical gastroenterology in general. Years of listed experience — shown on every profile below — is a reasonable starting point.
Specialization
Check that the doctor's listed procedures actually include pancreatic cancer treatment (see the doctor cards below) rather than only general surgical gastroenterology.
Hospital Affiliation
The hospital matters as much as the surgeon. Look for an accredited centre with a dedicated surgical gastroenterology unit, ICU support, and experience treating international patients — see "Hospitals where these doctors operate" below.
Communication and Second Opinions
You should be able to get clear answers about your case before committing to travel. Ask for a written second opinion on your reports, in a language you're comfortable in, before you decide.
Transparent Costs
Ask for an itemised, all-inclusive estimate — surgeon's fee, hospital charges and stay — before you travel, so there are no surprises once treatment begins. Our cost calculator (linked below) gives a starting estimate.
