Pancreatic cancer is a common pancreatic tumor. It is a highly malignant digestive tract tumor that is difficult to diagnose and treat. About 90% of pancreatic cancers are ductal adenocarcinomas that originate from the glandular duct epithelium. Its morbidity and mortality rates have increased significantly in recent years. The 5-year survival rate is less than 1%, making it one of the malignant tumors with the worst prognosis. The early diagnosis rate of pancreatic cancer is not high, the surgical mortality rate is high, and the cure rate is very low. So will pancreatic cancer eventually infect others? Pancreatic cancer is a disease of the digestive system and is also an infectious disease, but this has not been confirmed so far. Therefore, we can only say that viruses may be one of the causes of pancreatic cancer. It has not been confirmed whether cancer cells can survive after contact with other people's skin and digestive tract. Even if cancer cells from one animal are implanted in the tissues of another animal, it is difficult to cause cancer in the other animal. |
