    My husband has pancreatic cancer (PNET) 8/11/21 diagnosed. 18 rounds Cap-tem and 6/2/23 a full whipple, colon resection and some perf bowels and sepsis. It’s so refreshing to see diagrams and explanations that can be understood. So many times we have asked to how is it put together, knowing what was removed from him makes sense! Thank you for making videos like these! ❤

      He also had a MRCP last week. There is still issues in the liver and challenges from the outcome of surgery.

    I presently have a 3cm mucinous neoplasm on the tail of my pancreas. I have no pain, didn’t know it was there. It was spotted during a ct scan on my thymus gland. I find out on Friday if it is cancer or malignancy. I admit to being scared. It am amazed that something so serious can be there undetected with no symptoms.

    Is it possible to get EPI from the blockage or partial blockage of main duct. What about Elastase-1 test and /or IgG4 testing to confirm possible pancreatitis...thoughts??

    Thank you 🙏 such a clear explanation. Can you advise please. I had endometrial cancer last year, and was then diagnosed with Lynch syndrome. My mother passed away 6 months prior from pancreatic cancer. Now they’ve found a cyst on my pancreas, exactly what you’ve explained (side branch) but they’re only scanning me every 12 months. Is this enough? I’m worried it will grow rapidly like my mother’s did. I’m not yet 50

      I also have lynch syndrome.
      There is an excellent channel I'll find for you ger.... survives???
      Mainly you need your upper & lower endoscopy, Derm skin check, urine cytology, uterus (biopsy) & scan of ovaries. Most of my mateenal family members died feom HNPCC. I'M sorry you are dealing with this.

      I too survived endometrial cancer. The channel I found is Survivor Jelena
      If she doesn't know the answer she will help you get the info.
      Is that helpful?

    Is this the same for other cysts eg for the liver or kidneys etc

    • @thesurgicalscholar
      @thesurgicalscholar  Před 6 měsíci +1

      No, each organ may have several cyst types. The liver and kidneys both may have simple cysts, with broad similarities.
