1.1

Current evidence on the safety and efficacy of irreversible electroporation for treating pancreatic cancer is inadequate in quantity and quality. Therefore, this procedure should only be used in the context of research.

1.2

Further research, preferably in the form of randomised controlled trials, should assess the effect of the procedure on local tumour control, patient survival, pain control and quality of life.
