Abstract

Single stage radical cystectomy and pancreaticoduodenectomy (Whipple's procedure) was carried out in a 59-year old man for a benign pancreatic tumour (ancient schwannoma) and multifocal invasive bladder cancer. Urinary diversion was carried out using the urethral Kock reservoir.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a case report, done in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
