Pancreatic Cancer treatment in Magdalena Contreras

It is advisable to seek early guidance in the presence of persistent discomfort: pancreatic cancer is a tumor that forms in the pancreas, an organ that takes part in digestion and in the regulation of blood sugar. Its deep location means that in the early stages it can go unnoticed.

Possible manifestations: Pain in the upper part of the abdomen or the back, yellowish coloring of the skin and eyes, loss of appetite or weight, and digestive disturbances.

When to seek care? Digestive symptoms that do not improve or unexplained jaundice should be assessed without delay.

Specialists involved: The gastroenterologist studies the digestive symptoms, and the oncologist together with the radiation oncologist take part in the management. If you notice signs that do not subside, a timely consultation helps define the necessary studies to understand what is happening.
