ما هو سرطان البنكرياس؟
سرطان البنكرياس يبدأ بالتكون في أنسجة البنكرياس , والبنكرياس عضو من أعضاء البطن يقع بشكل أفقي خلف الجزء السفلي من المعدة حيث يقوم بإفراز إنزيمات تساعد في عملية الهضم وهرمونات تساعد في عملية التمثيل الغذائي للسكريات.
ماهي الأسباب ؟
لايوجد سبب واضح لسرطان البنكرياس ,, ولكن هناك عوامل تزيد نسبة الإصابة وهي :
- إذا كان العمر أكثر من 60 سنة
- التدخين
- الأكل المحتوي على نسبة عالية من الدهون واللحوم
- السمنة
- الإلتهاب المزمن للبنكرياس
- السكري
- التعرض للمواد الكيميائية
- العوامل الجينية والوراثية
ماهي الأعراض والعلامات ؟
- أعراض تسكر فناة الصفراء : اليرقان , تغير لون البول إلى الأصفر الداكن , شحوب في لون الفضلات , الحكة
- الغثيان والتقيؤ ,
- ألم في الجزء العلوي من البطن واحيانا يمتد الألم إلى الظهر
- فقدان الوزن والشعور بالوعكة
- شحوب في لون الفضلات مع رائحة كريهة
- السكري والتهاب البنكرياس الحاد في بعض الحالات النادرة
- أعراض أخرى في حال انتشار السرطان لمناطق أخرى من الجسم .
كيف يتم التشخيص ؟
- التصوير بالموجات فوق الصوتية للبطن بالإضافة ليعض الفحوصات للدم وذلك للتأكد من عدم وجود أسباب أخرى لليرقان مثل حصوات المرارة والتهاب الكبد الوبائي .
- تقييم مدى وانتشار السرطان وذلك من خلال : الأشعة المقطعية (الاكثر استخداما ) , التصوير بالرنين المغناطيسي , الموجات فوق الصوتية بالمنظار , الأشعة السينية للصدر, تنظير جوف البطن بالمنظار . وتكمن فائدة تقييم مدى وانتشار السرطان في اختيار العلاج المناسب من الطبيب وكذلك إعطاء فكرة عن مستقبل المرض .
- خزعة : وهي عبارة عن أخذ عينة صغيرة من أنسجة العضو بحيث يتم فحصها تحت المجهر للبحث عن خلايا سرطانية .
ماهو العلاج ؟
1- الجراحة : إذا كان السرطان في مراحلة المبكرة بحيث يكون محصوراً في البنكرياس ولم ينتشر إلى العقد الليمفاوية المجاورة أو مناطق أخرى من الجسم أو إذا كان محصوراً في جزء معين مثل رأس البنكرياس أو ذيل البنكرياس, وبشكل عام نسبة الشفاء بسيطة مع الجراحة
2- العلاج الكيميائي : يقوم بقتل الخلايا السرطانية أومنعها من التكاثر ويستخدم أحيانا بعد الجراحة لقتل أي خلايا سرطانية متبقية
3- العلاج الإشعاعي : يقوم بقتل الخلايا السرطانية أومنعها من التكاثر ولايستخدم بشكل كبير في سرطان البنكرياس
ماهو مستقبل المرض ؟
كلما كان حجم السرطان صغيراً وتم اكتشافه مبكراً كلما زادت نسبة الشفاء بإذن الله .
كيف يتم الوقاية منه ؟
- وقف التدخين
- المحافظة على وزن صحي ومثالي
- عمل بعض التمارين الرياضية
- الحرص على الأكل الصحي


Pancreatic cancer is caused by the abnormal growth of cells in the pancreas.
The pancreas is located deep inside the abdomen behind the stomach in an area called the retroperitoneum and is surrounded by the liver, spleen, small intestine, and other organs.
There are two types of glands in the pancreas: exocrine glands and endocrine glands. Exocrine glands produce pancreatic enzymes that help to digest proteins and starches. These enzymes are secreted into the pancreatic duct and empty into the first part of the small intestine, called the duodenum, when eating.
Endocrine glands (found in clusters called islets) produce insulin and other regulatory hormones. These hormones circulate through the body via the bloodstream and keep various systems in check. For example, insulin helps regulate blood sugar levels.
Pancreatic tumors can be benign (noncancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Benign tumors are generally not life-threatening and can often be removed. Malignant tumors, on the other hand, can be life-threatening, as they sometimes invade surrounding tissues and organs and can spread to distant sites in the body.
Pancreatic cancers are divided by location. Proximal pancreatic cancers are cancers that develop in the uncinate process and head of the pancreas. Distal pancreatic cancers are cancers that develop in the body and tail of the pancreas.
Pancreatic cancers can develop in both exocrine and endocrine cells. Exocrine tumors are more common than endocrine tumors (also referred to as islet cell tumors or neuroendocrine tumors).
The pancreas is an abdominal gland consisting of two major parts, thus corresponding to the two types of pancreatic cancer. The endocrine part of the pancreas produces hormones, with insulin being the most notable.
Tumors within this region of the pancreas are sometimes referred to as pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETS), and may or may not cause excessive amounts of hormones such as insulin. The exocrine component is regarded for making enzymes, useful for metabolism and digestion of food. Exocrine tumors are by far the most common form of pancreatic cancer and can include quite a few specific subtypes.

Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Kira Andersen. My husband, Kyle is a 47 year old loving husband and father to 3 beautiful toddlers. Our oldest Cora is 4.5, middle girl, Leah is 2.5 and finally our boy, Dane is 15 months. On October 24th, 2021 I took my husband into the ER for severe stomach pain and vomiting. He had been experiencing symptoms of discomfort since spring of last year but he just chalked it up to some probiotics I had him on and a family history of IBS therefore, we thought we were going in for a bowel blockage caused by IBS or some other GI issue. They immediately did a CT scan and it turns out he had a massive cancer tumor in the body of his pancreas, on his liver and wrapped around his colon which is why he was blocked. A NG tube was placed to drain his stomach and we were admitted right into the hospital. After a week in the hospital and finally an appointment with an oncologist, we were released. We weren’t able to get into to see our oncologist Dr. Kian Lim for another 2 weeks. We were told cancer "does not grow that fast" so we should be fine to wait.....
My husband is from Montana and wanted to get out there to see his family and spend time in the mountains before starting chemotherapy. We planned to stay for a week. While we were there his cancer continued to spread rapidly and blocked his colon once again. He had to be admitted back into the ER in Bozeman, MT and spent a couple days in the hospital in order to get him stable to be able to fly back to St Louis to be admitted into Siteman Cancer Center.
We had to take an emergency plane to St Louis and only to jump in the car and drive directly to Dr. Lims office. Dr. Lim and his team evaluated him and sent him directly to Siteman Cancer Centers main hospital to be admitted to the cancer floor. They had a scan done and it revealed his cancer had doubled in the 2 weeks. We spent 3 weeks in the hospital with all sorts of doctors focused on Kyle and his case. They successfully placed a GTUBE in his stomach in order to get the NG tube out of his nose. It was causing irritation and not a great long term plan. Soon after arrival they shared they had found a sack of fluid which was potentially infected from a perforated bowel. They took some fluid out and it was indeed an infection. They had to place a tube in the sack of fluid to drain the infection as quickly and safely as possible.
The story continues ....
I am surely off on my timeline and leaving out some details but I hope I am painting a picture for you. We were in and out of the hospital a couple times for various issues, one being a bleed we were scared about, turns out it was an ulcer THANK GOD.
Kyle had 4 rounds of Folfirinox which is the first line standard of care for patients with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. We had a scan to see the progress and it showed a mixed response. His pancreatic tumor shrunk slightly, his tumors around his colon stayed mostly stable, some shrinkage and some stayed the same size. There were 2 spots on his liver, one stayed the same and one grew.
Dr. Lim decided to switch his treatment to Gemzar Abraxane. Another chemotherapy regimen which is also a "standard of care" for patients in Kyles shoes. Praying for good news.
So why am I sharing our story and being so open with all of this?
A few months ago, Dr. Kian Lim shared with us a study he had done on mice using folfirinox (standard chemo treatment), (an MK2 inhibitor) and an immunotherapy drug. It eradicated the cancer in the mice. All of them.
Here is the issue at hand. Cancer research doctors spend more time applying for grants and funds than they do actually doing the research. Grants are extremely competitive and take time. Lots of time. Even when issued the grant, oftentimes it doesn't cover anywhere near the amount they need for the study or its gifted but over a few years. It can be a SLOW process. The problem with cancer is it's not patient or nice enough to hang tight while we search for funding.
We are going to do everything we possibly can to help Dr. Lim and his team to cure or at least prolong the life of patients cursed with this awful disease. I need my husband. My children need their father. I cannot raise these 3 children alone. I am scared to death. We are fighting for his life.
Please let me know if you can help in any way. I would like to spread this word as much as possible and raise awareness about pancreatic cancer and how it is on the rise. We all need a treatment that works. If we can get the money directly to Dr. Lim and allow him to use his brain power on research and not grant writing I truly believe we will get closer to what we are all hoping for.
Thank you SO incredibly much for your time and consideration . I hope we can work together to make a difference in this cancer.

Since 2015, the mission of the Kingsbury Open is to pay tribute to those we have lost to Pancreatic Cancer, and to give hope to individuals and families that are battling this horrific disease. Celebrating the game we love, The Kingsbury Open is about making memories and birdies golfing with our friends, colleagues and loved ones.
The Kingsbury Open is a partner with Wings of Hope for Pancreatic Cancer Research, a local nonprofit organization dedicated to raising awareness and funding for pancreatic cancer research in the effort to find more effective treatments and improve outcomes. We think there is no better way to raise money than by spending the afternoon with friends at a beautiful Colorado Golf Course.
The event is founded and dedicated in loving memory to my dad Thomas P. Kingsbury who was a scratch golfer and someone who found serious joy in playing with found balls. Tom believed a golfer was not defined by his or her equipment or the course he or she played, but by their passion for the game and a desire to continue to improve. A real stickler for the rules, he was a purist. Tom had a natural swing, never tried too hard, but still hit the ball a mile. He was a genuine teacher of the game and I learned every bit of my game from him. Tom was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer in February of 2007. Throughout treatment he stayed on the course. As fatigue set in, he surrendered to riding in a cart when he would normally walk. In August of 2007, my dad played his last round of golf, it was only 9 holes. He passed away two weeks later.
Every time we golf we think about Tom and know he is with us; from tee to green. We hope you will join us to honor his memory and to lend a hand to this important cause.
