What is Pancreatic Cancer?
Pancreatic cancer begins in the pancreas, a gland located deep in the abdomen behind the stomach. It plays a vital role in digestion and blood sugar regulation.
This cancer develops when abnormal cells grow uncontrollably and form a tumor. It can spread to nearby organs such as the liver, lungs, and lymph nodes if not treated early.
