Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.

This is very serious disease and I am afraid that cure is not possible since this is spread malignant disease now and surgery can be performed just for relieving jaundice by doing bypass of bile duct into intestines. For other things, only chemotherapy can be done to prolong life for some time.

I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
