CALL FOR ABSTRACT 14THGHUCG TRACK 5: GASTROINTESTINAL CANCER

Gastrointestinal Cancer

Gastrointestinal (GI) cancer refers to cancers that affect the digestive system, which includes the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine (colon and rectum), liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. These cancers can arise from various tissues within the digestive tract and have different characteristics, treatments, and prognoses.

Here’s an overview of some common types of gastrointestinal cancers:  Esophageal Cancer, Stomach (Gastric) Cancer, Colorectal Cancer, Liver Cancer, Pancreatic Cancer, Gallbladder Cancer

Why does gastric cancer occur?

Gastric cancer, also known as stomach cancer, occurs due to the development of malignant cells in the lining of the stomach. The exact cause of gastric cancer is not fully understood, but several risk factors have been identified:

Helicobacter pylori infection, Dietary factors, SmokingFamily historyChronic gastritisObesityCertain genetic syndromesPrevious stomach surgery.

For example, a diet high in smoked or salted foods and processed meat and low in vegetables is a risk factor for stomach cancer, as is drinking alcohol and smoking. Helicobacter pylori, a microorganism that infects the inner lining of stomach, also contributes to cancer development.

What are the signs of stomach cancer?

Early-stage stomach cancer may not produce any symptoms. Some stomach cancer symptoms, such as early satiety (feeling of fullness), mild abdominal pain, and fatigue, are common and comparable to symptoms of other, less serious conditions.

Nevertheless, certain symptoms are more indicative of stomach cancer. Consult a gastroenterologist if you experience any of the following symptoms for more than two weeks:

  • Unexplained weight reduction
  • Extreme abdominal distress
  • sickness and vomiting
  • loss of hunger
  • Vomiting blood
  • Sticky (dark, sticky) faeces
