Pancreatic cancer can disseminate through three primary pathways. Firstly, it can metastasize through the bloodstream, leading to potential spread to distant sites such as the lungs, liver, and bones.
Secondly, it may utilize the lymphatic system as a route, facilitating its spread to nearby lymph nodes.
Thirdly, it can extend directly into adjacent tissues, increasing the risk of its presence in the abdominal cavity, specifically the peritoneum.
