Gastrointestinal & Hepatobiliary Oncology: Condition & Treatments

Anal Cancer

Anal cancer is a type of cancer that occurs in the anus. The anus is the part of the gastrointestinal tract, which is about 1-1/2 inches long and connects the rectum to the outside of the body. It also allows the solid waste to pass from the body. Anal cancer occurs when there is an uncontrollable growth of the cells, resulting in tumour formation. A tumour can be cancerous or benign. A cancerous tumour is malignant and spreads to other parts of the body, while the benign tumour grows but does not spread. Anal cancer is uncommon and can be treated with a combination of treatments.

Bile Duct Cancer

Bile duct cancer, also called cholangiocarcinoma, is a rare type of cancer that forms in the bile ducts. The bile ducts are thin tubes that connect the liver and gallbladder to the small intestine. The main function of these bile ducts is to pass the bile fluid from the liver and gallbladder into the small intestine, which helps to digest the fats. Bile duct cancer is often diagnosed in its advanced stages, making successful treatment and recovery difficult. However, diagnosed timely, the outcomes of surgical treatment are usually good.

Colon Cancer

Colon cancer is an uncontrolled cell growth in either of the ascending, transverse or descending colons or the appendix (located close to the ascending colon) or rectum (located at the end of descending colon). Symptoms are usually bleeding, excruciating pain, difficulty in fecal movement, etc. This type of cancer starts in the large intestine (colon) or the rectum (end of the colon). This cancer results from uncontrolled cell growth in the colon or rectum, or appendix.

Small Intestine Cancer

Small intestine cancer is an uncommon type of cancer that occurs in the small intestine. The small intestine, also called the small bowel, is a long tube that carries digested food from the stomach to the large intestine. The small intestine breaks down and absorbs food particles, fats, nutrients, vitamins, and other substances. Tumor cells may block the small intestine resulting in hold up of intestinal contents and food in the intestine above the level of the tumour resulting in pain and abdominal distention.

Meningioma Brain Tumors: Answers to Commonly Asked Questions

A meningioma tumor can be a severe condition, as it typically occurs on the brain, which means it causes a number of other serious conditions. In most cases, these tumors can grow slowly or quickly, depending on the classification of being benign or cancerous. Fortunately, around 90% of these tumors are benign.
