Introduction
• Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) is the third leading cause of cancer-related death in the US.
• PDA is resistant to conventional chemotherapy; however, mechanisms that contribute to this chemoresistance are not well-described.
• The tumor microenvironment in PDA has a dense stromal reaction, which is thought to result in low oxygen and low nutrient conditions (Feig, C., et al. 2012).
• Isocitrate Dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) has been identified as an enzyme that plays an important role in chemoresistance in PDA (Zarei, M., et al. In progress).
• We sought to establish an IDH1 knockout cell line to further …

Background:
Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) has historically been used conservatively in the management of patients after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD).
In this study, we evaluate the indications for and outcomes associated with TPN use in a high-volume pancreatic surgery center.
