Core Tip Pancreatic cancer is a disease that mainly affects the elderly. The older patients have different biological, functional and psychosocial characteristics compared with the young population. The infrequent participation of these patients in clinical trials have raised challenges in the management of this disease. In this review, the special features of the elderly as well as the current multidisciplinary management of pancreatic cancer will be discussed.
