Elaborated techniques for resection and reconstruction of the mesenteric\u2013portal vein axis and a venous bypass graft-first approach frequently allow resection of PDAC with venous involvement, even in patients with portal venous congestion and cavernous transformation. Arterial involvement does not preclude surgical resection per se, but may become surgically manageable with recent techniques of arterial divestment or arterial resection following neoadjuvant treatment.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Advanced techniques of surgical resection and vessel reconstruction provide a toolkit for curative-intent surgery in borderline resectable and locally advanced PDAC.
