BACKGROUND: Over the last 30  years, numerous developments in the management of @entity1689 have occurred, leading to multiple surgical and non-surgical options. @entity1 AND METHODS: All @entity1 who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy for @entity1689 from January 1976 to July 2013 were reviewed. Surviving @entity1 were contacted for a follow-up questionnaire and Short Form (SF)-12 Quality of Life Survey administration. RESULTS: A total of 166 @entity1 were identified (cohort 1:1976-1997(N   =   105) and cohort 2:1998-2013(N   =   61)). Prior to pancreatoduodenectomy, a higher proportion of @entity1 in cohort 2 had undergone endoscopic stenting, 67 vs 10  % (p   <   0.001) and/or celiac @entity616 and 5  % (p   =   0.026). Median follow-up for all survey respondents was 15  years. On the SF-12, mean physical component score was 43.8        11.8 and mental component score was 54.3        7.9. @entity1 were significantly lower on the physical component score (p   <   0.001) and significantly better on the mental component score (p   =   0.001) than the general US population. Mean @entity158 score out of 10 was significantly lower after surgery 1.6        2.6 than before surgery 7.9        3.5 (p   <   0.001). @entity6 developed in 28  % of @entity1 who were not diabetic prior to surgery. CONCLUSION: Although practice has changed so that @entity1 have a longer time from presentation until surgery as less-invasive techniques are attempted, pancreatoduodenectomy appears to provide effective long-term @entity158 relief and acceptable quality of life in appropriately selected @entity1 with @entity1689 and intractable @entity158 .
