Will bile duct cancer metastasize? There is a certain chance

Biliary duct cancer has a certain chance of metastasis. The more common ways of metastasis are: lymph node metastasis, local spread, abdominal tumor implantation, etc. Chemotherapy can be used to control the proliferation of cancer cells and achieve therapeutic effects.

1. Lymphatic metastasis <br/>Cancer cells spread along the hepatic artery to the upper edge of the pancreas, celiac artery, posterior duodenum, common hepatic artery and retroperitoneal lymph nodes.
2. Local spread <br/>In the middle and late stages of the disease, cancer cells invade the organs and tissues around the bile duct, such as blood vessels, liver, and perineurium, along the bile duct wall.
3. Abdominal tumors, etc. The lymph nodes around the liver and the abdominal tissues are destroyed by cancer cells. If the disease is discovered in the early stages and systemic treatment is performed before the cancer cells metastasize, the disease can be controlled.
