The causes and risk factors for pancreatic cancer
 
Several factors lead to damage to the cells in the pancreas, leading to cancerous mutations cause pancreatic cancer. The most important factors and causes of pancreatic cancer are:

    
Smoking.
    
Alcoholic beverages, especially if they drank heavily and addiction.
    
Generation: as the generation progresses the greater the likelihood of pancreatic cancer.
    
Nutrition: Nutrition effect on the pancreas, where the nutrition that lack of fiber and saturated
fats increase the risk of developing pancreatic cancer.
    
Obesity.
    
Chronic pancreatitis: Chronic pancreatitis ongoing damage to cells in the pancreas and increases the risk of pancreatic cancer.
    
Diabetes: There is a relationship between diabetes and pancreatic cancer, but so far I do not know if what diabetes was the cause of pancreatic cancer or is it a result of it.
    
Industrial Materials: most notably substances found in some hair dyes  .
    
Genetic factors: I do not know what is the exact genetic factors, but wounding one of pancreatic cancer increases the risk of first-degree relatives (brother, sister, children and parents).
    
Genetic diseases and syndromes many increase the risk of pancreatic cancer, if a person is infected. But these diseases and syndromes are uncommon. Including:

Von Hippel-Lindau Disease
Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome

Gardner syndrome (Gardner Syndrome).And others
