Benign tumor symptom grows on bowel?
summary
Intestinal benign tumors are benign and malignant tumors of small intestine and large intestine. The clinical manifestations vary with the nature and location of the tumor. Generally speaking, benign tumors may be asymptomatic or mild. Some malignant tumors have no obvious symptoms in the early stage, which affects the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis. The incidence rate of small intestinal tumors is lower than that of the esophagus, stomach and large intestine. The diagnosis can be made by X-ray radiography, gastrointestinal endoscopy and biopsy. Surgical resection is recommended. The prognosis of benign tumor is good. Benign tumor symptom grows on bowel? Let's talk about it.
Benign tumor symptom grows on bowel?
Primary small intestinal tumor showed abdominal pain, intestinal bleeding, intestinal obstruction, abdominal mass and weight loss. The symptoms of malignant tumors are more and more severe, while the symptoms of benign tumors are less or no symptoms at all.
Due to the lack of specific symptoms and signs, it is difficult to diagnose early. X-ray double contrast radiography, fiberoptic enteroscopy, superior mesenteric arteriography and CT are helpful in the diagnosis of small intestinal tumors. If necessary, laparotomy can be performed to obtain the final diagnosis.
Early surgical resection of tumor is the treatment of small intestinal tumor. In benign tumors, leiomyoma, adenoma and fibroma all have the possibility of malignant transformation, especially adenoma, which is considered as a precancerous lesion, so it should be removed as soon as possible. If there is no serious complication in benign tumor, the prognosis is good. Malignant tumors are often difficult to obtain early diagnosis, when the diagnosis is clear, most patients have metastasis, so the prognosis is poor. Radiotherapy or chemotherapy as adjuvant therapy for small intestinal malignant tumor may receive certain curative effect.
matters needing attention
1. Age of onset. Most of the patients developed after 50 years old. 2. Family history: if someone's first-degree relatives, such as their parents, have colorectal cancer, their risk of suffering from this disease in their lifetime is 8 times higher than that of the general population. About a quarter of new patients have a family history of colorectal cancer. 3. History of colonic diseases: some colonic diseases such as Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis may increase the incidence of colorectal tumors. They are 30 times more likely to have colon cancer. Polyps: most colorectal tumors develop from small precancerous lesions. They are called polyps. Villous adenomatous polyps are more likely to develop into cancer, and the chance of malignant transformation is about 25%; The malignant transformation rate of tubular adenomatous polyps was 1-5%. 5. Genetic characteristics: some familial tumor syndromes, such as hereditary nonpolyposis colon tumors, can significantly increase the incidence of colorectal tumors. And the onset time is younger.
