Is gallbladder cancer contagious?

Is gallbladder cancer contagious? Not only does gallbladder cancer develop very quickly, but most patients die within a year. It is a highly malignant cancer. These data make patients very worried and afraid that it will be transmitted to their loved ones. So, is gallbladder cancer contagious? Let's take a look.

The disease is not contagious. Gallbladder cancer often coexists with benign gallbladder diseases, most commonly with gallstones. Chronic stimulation of gallstones is an important pathogenic factor. Since gallbladder cancer often coexists with gallstone inflammation, the nature of the pain is similar to that of calculous cholecystitis, starting 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.

Skipping breakfast is not only prone to premature aging and fatigue, but also a cause of gallstones and gallbladder cancer. After a night's sleep, a large amount of bile is retained in the gallbladder. If you can eat on time, it is easy to promote the normal secretion and excretion of bile. On the contrary, people who often skip breakfast will not get effective food stimulation for the gallbladder and cannot secrete.

The prognosis of gallbladder cancer is very poor, with an overall 5-year survival rate of less than 5%. This is mainly related to the high malignancy of the tumor, early metastasis and spread, and low early diagnosis rate and surgical resection rate. As mentioned earlier, the effect of tumor treatment is closely related to the staging of gallbladder cancer. Patients with stage I and II gallbladder cancer who are accidentally discovered after cholecystectomy for benign gallbladder disease can often survive for a long time, and the 5-year survival rate is reported to be 64% to 86%.

Warm reminder: Emotional factors have an important relationship with the development of the disease, the treatment effect and the prognosis. Patients must first have the faith and determination to overcome the disease, be full of hope for the future, and not be frightened by the disease. Keep your mind relaxed, calm, and calm when encountering things. You can do appropriate physical exercise, but you must pay attention to combining work and rest and living a regular life.
