If cancer of the pancreas is found in a patient, more tests are done to determine if the cancer is spreading.

 

·        Stage One – Cancer is found only in the pancreas.

·        Stage Two – Cancer has already spread to other organs close to the pancreas.

·        Stage Three – Cancer has spread to the lymph nodes.

·        Stage Four – Cancer has spread to other areas away from the pancreas.  In recurring cancer of the pancreas the cancer has returned (or to another area).
