Hi

Thanks for writing in

I have gone through the summary provided

Considering the comorbid conditions your father is suffering from, It is better he goes for conservative therapy only

Complete surgical resection is the only therapy to afford a chance of cure. Unfortunately, only 10% of patients present with early stage disease and are considered for curative resection.

Palliative stenting is used to relieve obstructive jaundice

It is better if you follow the treating doctors advice

Hope this helps
Wishing your father a healthy life ahead
