Pancreatic cancer is one of cancer where all modality of treatment are effective for better result.Stenting or bypass surgery is usually required for relief of jaundice or pain due to obstruction.Whipple surgery is  done if you're disease can be completely removable and that decision is taken by surgeon.Chemotherapy can be used for supporting surgery or radiation treatment.Chemotherapy alone will mostly used for advanced disease for pain relief and increase survival.
