Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is collecting clinical and pathological data from patients who undergo surgery for tumors or cysts in the pancreas or the area around the bile duct opening (periampullary region). The goal is to identify factors that predict outcomes after surgery, which can help improve future patient care. **You may be eligible if...** - You have been recommended for surgery to remove a tumor or cyst in the pancreas or periampullary area - Your medical information is available in the electronic health records - You have provided informed consent (or, for the retrospective part of the study, you are deceased) **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You are alive and have not provided informed consent to participate Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
