  1. NOS not otherwise specified, i.e., typical acinar, tubular, glandular pancreatobiliary histomorphology.
  2. Significant values are marked in bold. aMann–Whitney U-test.
  3. bFisher’s exact test
  4. cChi-square test.
  5. dMedian patients’ age was 63 years.
  6. eFor all tumours that showed a non-not otherwise specified (NOS) histomorphology the predominant pattern was assessed.
  7. fCases with pNx had no lymph nodes resected, therefore, UICC status could not be assessed
