Pancreatic cancer

特許 権利維持 Pancreatic cancer occurs when cancer cells develop in the pancreas, a glandular organ located behind the stomach. There are a number of different types of pancreatic cancer, but pancreatic adenocarcinoma represents about 85% of all cases. Signs and symptoms of pancreatic cancer may include abdominal or back pain, yellow skin, unexplained weight loss, light colored stools, dark urine and loss of appetite.
