Can pancreatic cancer be cured

Pancreatic cancer mainly occurs in men. Once you are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, it will cause great pain to the patient's body, and the patient and his family will also bear a certain psychological burden. Many pancreatic cancer patients are already in the late stage when they find that they are ill, which brings certain difficulties to treatment. So, can pancreatic cancer be cured? Let's take a look at the following introduction.

The main treatments for pancreatic cancer include radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and traditional Chinese medicine. Although many patients are not very sensitive to radiotherapy and chemotherapy, chemotherapy can appropriately prolong the patient's survival in the treatment of middle and late stages, and relieve some of the symptoms. Common chemotherapy regimens include FAM, FAP, and MA. Radiotherapy has a more direct killing effect on cancer cells. When combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of middle and late stage pancreatic cancer, it can improve the treatment effect and prolong the patient's survival. The effectiveness of the treatment of pancreatic cancer mainly depends on whether the treatment method is appropriate and the patient's physical condition. Clinically, the main treatments for middle and late stage pancreatic cancer include radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and traditional Chinese medicine treatment of pancreatic cancer.

What are the main symptoms of pancreatic cancer? Many patients will experience varying degrees of jaundice in the early stages, often accompanied by abdominal distension, dull pain and other symptoms, which are quite similar to some manifestations of viral hepatitis and can be easily diagnosed as hepatitis. However, the viral infection markers (HbsAg, HbeAg) and the obvious increase in serum transaminase that appear in the early stages of hepatitis are different from pancreatic cancer. When obstructive jaundice occurs in pancreatic cancer, it can be misdiagnosed as cholestatic hepatitis, but the latter has no intrahepatic or extrahepatic bile duct dilatation on B-ultrasound.

To fight the disease, patients and their families need strong mental strength. Many cancer patients recover very quickly because of their positive and optimistic mentality. On the contrary, many pancreatic cancer patients whose condition is not particularly serious fail in treatment because they give up mentally.
