What causes pancreatic cancer

summary

Not long ago, my uncle just found out that he was suffering from pancreatic cancer and went to the hospital for surgical treatment. Fortunately, he found it in a timely manner. Now his condition has been controlled to a certain extent. Patients with pancreatic cancer should receive treatment as soon as possible. Now I will tell you about the causes of pancreatic cancer.

What causes pancreatic cancer

Reason 1: the etiology of pancreatic cancer is unknown. The incidence rate of male patients is much higher than that of premenopausal women. The incidence of postmenopausal women is similar to that of men.

Reason two: the incidence rate of this disease is higher in the population who eat high animal fat and protein diet, and those who have a habit of smoking or drinking coffee are higher than those without hobbies. The patients with juvenile diabetes mellitus and pancreatic cancer are 2 times higher than those without diabetes.

The third reason is that pancreatic head cancer can spread directly to adjacent tissues such as bile duct and duodenum in the early stage, and then metastasize to the lymph nodes around the pancreatic head and common bile duct, and there may be a few metastases in the liver. Pancreatic body cancer and tail cancer spread widely.

matters needing attention

Patients with pancreatic cancer should face and treat this disease with a positive and optimistic attitude. They often directly contact with the celiac plexus and invade into the lymphatic space around the nerve, and further develop distant lymphatic or blood metastasis, and often form metastatic cancer in the lung.
