How the Increasing Incidence of Pancreatic Cancer is Linked to Early-Stage Endocrine Cancer

Dr. Adewole Adamson, Department of Internal Medicine, Dell Medical School, discusses new data on the stable mortality amid growing pancreatic cancer cases in young Americans, and how some cases of pancreatic cancer are misattributed as early-stage endocrine cancer.
He also touches on the potential of overtreatment and its related negative outcomes in patients with early-stage endocrine cancer, and if these findings may affect future screening guidelines or surveillance strategies for pancreatic cancer.
