How likely is it that the first sign of pancreatic cancer would be a palpable left supraclavicular lymph node?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It can happen: Pancreatic and stomach cancer can be quite advanced before they are detected, and it is well described that the first manifestation can be a palpable "Virchow's node."
