Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Peng Xiaodong
Pancreatic cancer with bone metastasis may cause symptoms such as localized bone pain, palpable masses, osteoporosis, and pathological fractures. If the spine is compressed, patients may also experience incontinence, numbness, and weakness in both lower limbs. Additionally, pancreatic cancer is primarily a disease caused by tumors arising from the epithelial cells of the pancreatic ducts or acinar cells. After diagnosis, it is recommended to follow standard medical treatment under the guidance of a physician.
