How much does a bile duct stent for pancreatic cancer cost

Pancreatic cancer is a relatively common cancer. The disease also has certain symptoms in the early stages, which can be felt by careful patients. However, the disease misses the best time for treatment due to the patient's negligence. The same is true for cancer. If it can be treated early, the effect will be completely different. If a disease like pancreatic cancer is treated, will the cost be too expensive?

The cost of stents varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. Other costs vary depending on the condition and are difficult to estimate. Generally, the cost is based on the surgical situation. If a metal stent is placed, the cost of the stent is between 18,000 and 20,000 yuan, and the total cost is about 25,000 yuan.

Plastic stents are less expensive, costing 1,000-2,000 yuan per stent, and the total cost is around 6,000-7,000 yuan.

Plastic stents are prone to clogging, and metal stents are left in place for a longer time

Pancreatic cancer is a malignant tumor that causes great harm to patients. Patients can choose surgery for treatment. They should be well prepared before surgery, and their family members should also pay attention to the postoperative care of the patients.
