description A better understanding of the growth rate of pancreatic carcinoma is important in determining its natural course and in evaluating the effects of treatment or prognosis. The authors studied the growth rate of pancreatic carcinoma and the relation between its tumor volume doubling time (TVDT) and host survival. Nine patients with pancreatic carcinoma who underwent serial examinations by helical computed tomography but no anticancer treatment during the observation period were included. The TVDTs were calculated by measuring the tumor size on the helical computed tomograms. The mean TVDT of the nine primary lesions of pancreatic carcinoma was 159 +/- 67 days (median, 144 days), and the range was 64 to 255 days. The correlation between TVDT and survival time was positive and significant (r = 0.793, p = 0.011). This preliminary study suggests that examination of TVDT may be useful in the clinical evaluation of prognosis for patients with pancreatic carcinoma in certain situations.
