Bile duct cancer, or cholangiocarcinoma, arises from the cells lining the bile ducts, which carry bile from the liver and gallbladder to the small intestine. This cancer is often diagnosed at advanced stages due to subtle early symptoms such as jaundice, itchy skin, abdominal pain, and weight loss. Treatment may include surgery to remove the tumor, bile duct reconstruction, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy, depending on the cancer's location and stage.
