Publisher's Synopsis
A kind of cancer called pancreatic cancer develops in the pancreas, an organ beneath the stomach. It happens when pancreatic cells start to multiply uncontrolled and form a tumor. Since pancreatic cancer is frequently discovered in an advanced stage, effective treatment is challenging. Abdominal pain, jaundice (skin and eye yellowing), weight loss, and digestive issues are typical symptoms. Depending on the stage and severity of the cancer, treatment options may include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or a combination of these. Although there is a relatively low survival rate for this dangerous and sometimes aggressive cancer, early detection, and immediate medical care can improve prognosis.
