The median survival time was 11 months and the 1-year survival rate was 35.29% (6/17)Conclusion: IORT in combination with regional chemotherapy had a good impact on clinical benefit without severe side effects in locally advanced pancreatic carcinoma and led to a significant prolongation of the survival time.
