Got esophagus cancer early how should treat

summary

There is a relative at home who has esophageal cancer and is now undergoing treatment. The doctor said that his condition is in an early stage, so he must take good care of it. Now I will introduce to you the early treatment methods of esophageal cancer.

Got esophagus cancer early how should treat

First, surgery can be used as a cure method for early esophageal cancer with local e lesions, but it can not reach the cure standard for patients with advanced esophageal cancer with distant metastasis. Pathological stage is the most important prognostic factor for the survival of patients with esophageal cancer. The overall 5-year survival rate of patients with stage I esophageal cancer after surgical resection is 80-90%, even more than 90%. The 5-year survival rate of patients with locally advanced tumor (stage III and IV) is less than 15%.

Second: using radiation to reduce tumor size before surgery, or to eliminate residual cancer cells after surgery. When the size and location of the tumor are not suitable for surgical resection, or other factors of the patient are not suitable for surgery, radiotherapy is another alternative to surgery. In recent years, some new radiotherapy technologies have been introduced, such as "three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy" and "intensity control radiotherapy", and "four direction irradiation mode" aiming at reducing the damage of radiotherapy to the heart.

Third: interventional treatment of esophageal cancer arterial infusion chemotherapy or embolization is a kind of chemotherapy. Seldinger puncture and intubation were applied to the arteries of different parts for regional perfusion chemotherapy, and embolization with gelatin sponge particles was performed in some patients. To a certain extent, the size and scope of esophageal cancer were controlled, the chance of second stage operation was obtained, the recurrence and metastasis of operation were reduced, and the quality of life and survival time were improved. Although there are some side effects, the treatment of traditional Chinese medicine has obvious relief.

matters needing attention

Now in this era, more and more people get esophageal cancer, and the incidence rate of this disease is also higher, which makes more people pay attention to this disease, which is also a common malignant tumor, and has a great impact on the body.
