Duodenal adenocarcinoma
My dad, age 83, was just diagnosed with duodenal adenocarcinoma in the top section. He is not a candidate for whipple or for chemo, only palliative radiation. The adenocarcinoma is bleeding, now controlled, but has not spread beyond the duodenum. They have said 6 month survival, but it is moderately diffused and they said if they had to stage it, it would be 2 or 3. Does anyone have any insight as to what we we should expect??
