Pancreatectomy trends were analysed using Joinpoint regression, and associations with sociodemographic, clinical and healthcare factors were assessed using log\u2010binomial regression, with causal mediation analysis assessing the extent to which private specialist visits mediated each association.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Among 22\u2009739 individuals with pancreatic cancer (mean age 72.5\u2009years; 51% male), 15% underwent pancreatectomy. Uptake increased over time, with an average six\u2010monthly increase of 1.36% (95% confidence interval [CI]\u2009=\u20090.63\u20132.11). After adjustment for age, sex and comorbidities, older age was strongly associated with lower pancreatectomy prevalence (80+ years vs. 60\u201369\u2009years: prevalence ratio [PR]\u2009=\u20090.16; 95% CI\u2009=\u20090.14\u20130.19). Lower prevalence was observed in remote areas (PR\u2009=\u20090.59; 95% CI\u2009=\u20090.43\u20130.77) and the most disadvantaged socioeconomic group (PR\u2009=\u20090.75; 95% CI\u2009=\u20090.68\u20130.82). Conversely, private specialist visits (PR\u2009=\u20091.60; 95% CI\u2009=\u20091.50\u20131.72) and general practitioner (GP) visits were associated with higher prevalence. Private specialist visits explained 61% of the regional\u2013metropolitan difference and 41% of the high\u2013low GP visits difference, and counteracted the negative effect of comorbidities.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Undergoing pancreatectomy is associated with sociodemographic, clinical and healthcare factors.
