What are the symptoms of bile duct cancer and what are the early symptoms of bile duct cancer

1. Symptoms such as loss of appetite, which are often regarded as early warning symptoms of bile duct cancer. At the beginning of abdominal pain, there is a similar cholelithiasis and cholecystitis. 2. Abdominal pain:

About half of the patients have symptoms such as right upper quadrant pain, bloating or discomfort, weight loss, and loss of appetite. These symptoms are often seen as early warning signs of cholangiocarcinoma. Abdominal pain at first.

There are similar cholelithiasis and cholecystitis. According to clinical observation, abdominal pain and jaundice can occur after only 3 months of the onset of bile duct cancer. 3. Fever:

It is mostly caused by inflammation in the obstructed bile ducts, and the incidence is low. 4. Others: There may be accompanying symptoms such as loss of appetite, oil aversion, fatigue, weight loss, itching, nausea and vomiting, or non-specific symptoms of cancer.

A small number of patients may have symptoms of portal hypertension, which is caused by cancer infiltrating the portal vein. The above is a suggestion on the symptoms of bile duct cancer, I hope it will be helpful to you, I wish you good health!

Symptoms of bile duct cancer include jaundice, clay-colored stools, dark urine, itching, weight loss, abdominal pain, etc.

Cholangiocarcinoma is cancer that forms in the bile ducts that carry digestive juices. The bile duct connects the passage of the liver to the gallbladder and small intestine. It mainly occurs in people over 50 years old, and is divided into different types according to the location of bile duct cancer: intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, hilar cholangiocarcinoma, and distal cholangiocarcinoma.

Jaundice is the most common form of cholangiocarcinoma and is most easily detected in direct sunlight. If the tumor is located in the common bile duct or common hepatic duct, obstruction and subsequent cholestasis tend to occur earlier. Jaundice often occurs in advanced perihepatic or intrahepatic tumors.

Excess conjugated bilirubin is associated with bilirubinuria and gallstones. Pruritus usually precedes jaundice, but pruritus may be the first symptom of cholangiocarcinoma and may be associated with circulating bile acids. And some patients have significant weight loss at the time of diagnosis.

Abdominal pain is common in advanced disease and is predominantly dull pain in the right upper quadrant.

Cholangiocarcinoma refers to an extrahepatic bile duct malignant tumor that originates from the confluence of the left and right hepatic ducts to the lower end of the common bile duct, and the age of onset is mostly 50-70 years old, and the younger trend is obvious in recent years. The incidence of cholangiocarcinoma in China is less common than other malignant tumors of the digestive tract, such as gastrointestinal and liver tumors, but the prognosis is poor. Palliative or not** survive an average of several months, rarely more than 1 year, and rarely more than 5 years even if surgically removed.

Therefore, the prevention and early diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma is the key to the disease. ?Early symptoms are mainly epigastric discomfort, as well as progressive jaundice, loss of appetite, weight loss, itching, etc.

If there are gallstones and bile duct infection, there may be chills and fever. If the cancer is located in one hepatic duct, it is usually asymptomatic at first, and obstructive jaundice occurs when it affects the opening of the contralateral hepatic duct. Central bile duct cancer is not accompanied by gallstones and infection, and is mostly **, obstruction and jaundice with rapid development.

If there is a tumor at the lower end of the common bile duct, the enlarged gallbladder may be palpable. If the tumor ruptures and bleeds, there may be melena or a positive fecal occult blood test, anemia and other manifestations. Because the early symptoms are similar to stone disease, many patients mistake the early symptoms of cholangiocarcinoma for gallstone disease.

At present, experts believe that the following groups of people need to be particularly vigilant: (1) People over middle-aged, especially obese women, should have regular B-ultrasound examinations, and if cholecystitis, gallstones or polyps are found, they must be further examined and **. (2) Patients with precancerous lesions, such as patients with gallbladder adenoma and gallbladder adenomyosis, need to actively develop precancerous lesions.

At the same time, eliminate the triggers that may cause cancer, such as long-term consumption of high-fat food, alcoholism, etc. (3) Middle-aged and elderly people over 40 years old who suffer from gallstones and have long-term reversal, accompanied by inflammation, jaundice and other symptoms, must go to the hospital for regular examinations in order to find out whether the bile ducts have a tendency to become cancerous as soon as possible. In terms of **, Ankangxin Capsule, Shenyi Capsule, Huisheng Oral Liquid, Tianchan Capsule, Huai'er Granules, etc. can be applied to cholangiocarcinoma, and patients should be used as soon as possible to improve the effect.

It is mainly related to long-term chronic diseases of the bile ducts and gallbladder area.

Medically speaking, the ** of cholangiocarcinoma has not yet been studied, but cholangiocarcinoma is indeed preventable, and relevant information can be checked.
