Is duodenal cancer hereditary?

Duodenal cancer is generally not hereditary, so don't worry too much and maintain good living habits.

Duodenal cancer is a malignant tumor that originates in various segments of the duodenum. This disease is not a hereditary disease and is usually not hereditary. The cause of this disease is still unclear. It may be related to duodenal polyps or frequent exposure to carcinogens. After the disease occurs, upper abdominal discomfort such as abdominal pain and bloating may occur. Some patients may also experience back pain, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms. When the above symptoms appear, you should go to the oncology department of a regular hospital in time. If it is in the early stage, it can be treated with surgery. More common surgical methods usually include pancreaticoduodenectomy, gastroduodenectomy, etc. If it is in the middle and late stages, it can be treated with chemotherapy. More common chemotherapy drugs usually include oxaliplatin injection, cisplatin injection, carboplatin injection, etc.

To reduce the probability of illness, patients should pay attention to strengthening life management, ensure regular work and rest, go to bed early and get up early, avoid smoking and drinking, or take appropriate walks and jump rope if physical conditions permit, which is beneficial to improve body resistance.
