Pancreatic carcinoma is a common malignancy with a poor prognosis. Surgery remains the only curative treatment option, but the tumors often are unresectable at the time of clinical presentation. In patients with inoperable lesions, palliative interventions to alleviate jaundice, pain and intestinal obstruction often become the focus of therapy. The advantages and risks of endoscopic treatment modalities for these complications are discussed.
