Common symptoms of gallbladder cancer

Gallbladder cancer is a relatively common malignant tumor. Gallbladder cancer has no obvious symptoms in the early stage and is difficult to diagnose in the early stage. Understanding the symptoms of gallbladder cancer is helpful for treatment. So what are the symptoms of gallbladder cancer ? The following is a detailed answer from relevant experts.

1. Right upper abdominal pain: This symptom accounts for 84%. Since gallbladder cancer often coexists with gallbladder stones and inflammation, the nature of the pain is similar to that of calculous cholecystitis. It starts with discomfort in the right upper abdomen, followed by persistent dull pain or dull pain, sometimes accompanied by paroxysmal severe pain and radiating to the right shoulder.

2. Most (90%) digestive tract symptoms include indigestion, aversion to greasy food, belching, and decreased appetite, which is due to the gallbladder's inability to digest fat. This is a common symptom of gallbladder cancer.

3. Jaundice Jaundice often occurs in the late stage of the disease, accounting for 36.5%, mostly due to cancer tissue invading the bile duct and causing malignant obstruction. It is accompanied by weight loss, fatigue, and even cachexia, yellowing of the skin and mucous membranes, and difficult-to-treat skin itching, which is also one of the symptoms of gallbladder cancer.

4. Fever: 25.9% of patients developed fever.

5. Right upper abdominal mass When the disease develops to the late stage, a mass appears in the right upper abdomen or upper abdomen, accounting for 54.5%. One is that the tumor grows rapidly, blocking the bile duct and causing the gallbladder to swell; the other is that it invades the duodenum and causes obstruction symptoms; in addition, if it invades the liver, stomach, pancreas, etc., masses may also appear in the corresponding parts.
