Abstract
Early-onset pancreatic cancer (EOPC) is usually defined as patients with pancreatic cancer before the age of 50 years, which is relatively rare. However, the research on EOPC is somewhat obscure, and the specific clinical and molecular characteristics of this condition are debated. In this review, we discussed the differences between EOPC and late-onset pancreatic cancer (LOPC) or average-onset pancreatic cancer (AOPC) with a focus on clinical and molecular characteristics, survival outcomes and treatment to promote the diagnosis and treatment of EOPC.
