Strengths and Limitations
The strength of this survey is the global range of respondents, representing a wide range of countries and continents. However, the results should be interpreted in light of some limitations. First, only 10.4% nonsurgeons (eg, medical oncologists and gastroenterologists) participated in this survey, which could possibly outbalance the discussion regarding the oncological treatment of pancreatic diseases. Second, a relatively small group of 8 countries was responsible for the majority of survey participants (76.6%). Third, only a minority of participants represented the nonacademic centers.
