Small Intestine (Small Bowel) Cancer
Small intestine cancer is a rare disease where cancer cells form in the tissues of the small intestine. This long, coiled tube is an important part of the digestive system, responsible for breaking down food and absorbing essential nutrients. The most common types of small intestine cancer are adenocarcinoma and leiomyosarcoma, and symptoms may include unexplained weight loss and abdominal pain. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for improving outcomes.
