Metastatic Liver Cancer | Cure for pancreatic cancer

Cure for pancreatic cancer

One of the most Mediaeval practices is : if your eye hurts you, remove it. 700 years later we are still as barbaric as then when it comes to curing cancer: breast cancer? Remove your breasts! I mean, are we really living in the 21 century flying all the way to Mars???

With father’s metastatic liver cancer same idea: remove the liver, put in a new one and then do it again as soon as the primary cancer affects the liver again. Hmmmm, patient is 75 years old, although he paid his health insurance all the time, are we really going to do such an expensive procedure? No! Let’s tell him that we just did what we could according the given circumstances… Well, that’s a kind way to say: you are going to die in 6 months because we don’t have a cure and if we did, we are not going to give it to you as you don’t have the money to talk!

Cure for pancreatic cancer

The only known cure for pancreatic cancer is only possible if the complete surgical removal of the cancer is possible. This is the only known cure for pancreatic cancer. Only 15 to 20% of people will fall into the “curable” stage at the time of diagnosis.

The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network, Inc (PanCAN) was established in 1999 and is working to focus national attention on the need to find a cure for pancreatic cancer. They provide public and professional education calling for the urgent need for more research, effective treatments, prevention programs and early detection methods for pancreatic cancer.
