About pancreatic cancer
Pancreatic cancer most often begins in the ducts of the pancreas. Symptoms appear late, so prompt evaluation of warning signs matters. Treatment is planned by stage: surgery offers the best chance in resectable disease, supported by chemotherapy before or after the operation.
Who is at higher risk
- Smoking
- Long-standing diabetes
- Chronic pancreatitis
- Obesity
- Family history and inherited mutations (including BRCA2)
- Age above 60
Having a risk factor doesn’t mean you will get cancer.
How it’s diagnosed
Contrast CT of the pancreas is the primary test, supplemented by endoscopic ultrasound with biopsy, CA 19-9 marker, and PET-CT for staging.
Many of these tests can be arranged by your CION team at CION Kukatpally.
Treatment options
Your plan depends on the type and stage of the cancer and on your overall health. CION’s tumour board agrees on it with you.

Cancers We Treat
CION treats these and other cancers. Not sure about yours? Ask when you call.
1Why is pancreatic cancer often found late?
The pancreas lies deep in the abdomen and early tumours rarely cause symptoms. Jaundice, back pain, or unexplained new diabetes should prompt timely imaging.
2What is the Whipple operation?
It removes the head of the pancreas along with parts of the bile duct and intestine, then reconnects the digestive tract. It is major surgery best done by experienced surgical teams.
3Is chemotherapy given before surgery?
In borderline-resectable cases chemotherapy is often given first to improve the chance of complete removal. Sequencing is decided at the tumour board.
