What Causes Pancreatic Cancer?
3. Lifestyle
Smoking, obesity, old age, and other factors may also play a part in the development of pancreatic cancer. When these habits are part of your lifestyle, your chances of getting pancreatic cancer increase further if you have a close relative who has, or had, pancreatic cancer.
A similar scenario applies if you have an inherited genetic syndrome or disease associated with the development of pancreatic cancer.
