According to him, certain symptoms may occur if the tumor presses on the recurrent laryngeal nerve (vagus nerve) or in the presence of metastases, and these include prolonged hoarseness and coughing. Patients may also experience a slight fever or changes in their sense of taste.اضافة اعلان

In later stages, more obvious symptoms may appear, such as pain in the upper abdomen, alternating constipation and diarrhea, vomiting with blood, or black stools.
