Pancreatic cancer is one of the most severe and fastest-spreading disease. The incidence is rising in the Czech republic and pancreatic

cancer is the eighth most common type of cancer. In the most cases pancreatic cancer is diagnosed at an advanced stage. Recently attention

has been given to diabetes, which is emerging shortly before the diagnosis of cancer. Odds ratio for pancreatic cancer at diabetics

is in epidemiological studies placed in the range of 1.2 to 5.8. Diabetes is often the first manifestation of previously asymptomatic

ongoing malignancy.
