[Update of the S3 guidelines for pancreatic cancer. What is new for pathologists?].

The S3 guidelines for pancreatic cancer were revised in 2013. Besides the oncological and palliative therapy modalities and surgical therapy, the guidelines for pathologists in topic 3 were updated. The modifications essentially concern the histopathological assessment of surgical specimens and in particular the circumferential resection margin and the R classification. In addition, the current recommendations were amended by recommendations concerning the pathohistological records, which should include the lymph node ratio in the future.
