How serious are the consequences of mistaking pancreatic head cancer, the king of cancers , for sto

A 74-year-old patient mistakenly thought that pancreatic head cancer, the "king of cancers", was a stomach problem, and when he arrived at our hospital, he was already skinny to the bone, only 37 kilograms, and his body function was getting worse and worse.

After the examination, it was found that it was a pancreatic head mass, paraperitoneal aorta, mesentery and multiple swollen lymph nodes in the right hilum of the lung, accompanied by intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts, hepatic common duct and pancreatic duct dilation, inferior vena cava and right renal vein cancer thrombosis, which was considered to be malignant lesions.

Pancreatic head carcinoma with multiple lymphadenopathy of the peritoneum, posterior abdominal para-aortic mesentery, and right hillum. The presence of so many problems from the chest to the lymph node veins indicates that his medical history is relatively long, rather than caused by short-term lesions.

Listening to the patient's son, they learned from the side that the tumor in our hospital is more professional and has better efficacy, so the patient trusts us more and comes to our hospital to do it.

We punctured the bile duct of the liver, through the bile duct branch of the liver, to enter the common hepatic duct, and then to the common bile duct, the goal is to reach the duodenum through the tumor, the reason we do this is that many people put the drainage bile duct into the common hepatic duct, as a ** endpoint, is the traditional bile outside the human body.

That is to say, the traditional ** medicine needs to hang a bag outside the human body, so if the patient wants to go out, it will be very inconvenient, because the bag will be scratched if one is not careful.

Patients may experience electrolyte imbalances due to external bile drainage, long-term bile loss, and bile loss. We try to drain the patient's body, in fact, we want to restore his physiological state, because under normal circumstances, our bile is going to flow to the small intestine, but after the patient gets sick, he has a tumor in his pancreas.

Because the patient's tumor is large, the compression is very severe, and the lump is suppressed from the cystic duct to the small intestine. If we want to restore his physiological state, the road must be opened for him, and if the road is not opened, it will still be blocked by tumors.

Through the operation, the patient's duodenum and small intestine are developed, which means that our bile ducts have been successfully sent to the small intestine, and our body's bile is to help digestion, so the patient no longer needs to hang a bag.

This patient mistakenly regards cancer as a stomach disease, resulting in body emaciation, and has to hang a bag outside the body in the early stage, which is very hard, and mistakes cancer for a stomach disease, and has not been prescribed the right medicine for a long time, resulting in cancer cell metastasis, which has a great harm to the human body.

The main symptom of pancreatic cancer in most patients is discomfort in the upper abdomen. Some patients may experience indigestion, poor appetite, or significant weight loss for an unexplained period of time.

Some patients will have pain, which depends on the location and size of the tumor, which may be abdominal pain or low back pain.

In addition, some patients will develop jaundice, which is more common in ampullary and lower bile duct tumors. Among the first symptoms of pancreatic cancer, jaundice and abdominal pain are the most common, followed by weight loss, epigastric fullness, low back pain, fatigue, and some fever.
