First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tracked 295 adults who had high-risk surgery for stomach, esophagus, pancreas, or liver cancer. Researchers measured quality of life before surgery and again at 6 and 12 months after. They also asked patients and their family members if they regretted the decision to have surgery. The goal was to understand patterns of improvement, stability, or decline in well-being after these major operations.
