bile duct cancer treatment centers?
Hello sir, my dad was diagnosed with bile duct cancer in October. He is currently 65 years old. He refused to treat because of the terrible adverse effects, and he believes he would have died due to the side effects. Is there any other approach to treat him so that he doesn't have to go through the trauma?

If bile duct cancer is in an early stage, it can be completely cured with surgery. If local regional spread is there, we may need chemotherapy followed by surgery. In last stage also, with chemotherapy and local radiation a good relief of symptoms can be achieved. Non treatment of bile duct cancer will lead to more worse quality of life then the treatment so treatment should be considered at the earliest.

Please perform Whole body PETCT to know the actual condition and then you can consult a oncologist so he will guide your father for proper treatment for speedy recovery.
