(2) Obstructive jaundice is a prominent symptom of pancreatic cancer. If the tumor is located near the ampulla, jaundice may appear earlier. Jaundice often persists and progressively deepens. The stool becomes lighter in color, even clay-colored. The skin becomes brown or bronze-colored, and there is pruritus.
