Primary Pancreatic Malignancy: Clear Cell Adenocarcinoma Presenting as Acute Pancreatitis

Tim B Trossberg

Pancreatic cancer is a condition in which malignant (cancer) cells develop in the pancreas' tissues. Pancreatic cancer risk is influenced by smoking and medical history. Jaundice, discomfort, and weight loss are all signs and symptoms of pancreatic cancer. Early detection of pancreatic cancer is challenging. Adenocarcinoma, also known as ductal carcinoma, is the most frequent kind of pancreatic cancer, accounting for more than 90% of diagnosis. This cancer occurs in the lining of the ducts in the pancreas. Adenocarcinoma can also arise from the cells that manufacture pancreatic enzymes.
