Objective Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma has a five year survival rate of 20% following radical surgical resection. The aggressive tumor biology and heterogenous nature of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma results in metastatic spread which further decreases overall survival. We report a patient who successfully underwent a pulmonary metastasectomy five years after the resection of a pancreati...
