Summary

Pancreatic cancer is a malignancy with a poor prognosis. Its increased incidence was observed in diabetic patients in the past. However, there is no evidence, whether diabetes is a risk factor for neoplastic transformation, or if it arises secondarily as a result of the tumor. The key is an early detection of cancer to perform pancreatectomy – the only possible curative therapy yet. This requires early diagnostic markers.

Key words:
diabetes mellitus – pancreatectomy – pancreatic cancer
