Treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma

Treatment 1: for patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma, surgical treatment can be used. Surgical treatment is the surgical treatment of direct resection and dissection of the primary and metastatic lesions of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, which is not the first choice and has certain applicable indications.

Treatment 2: radiotherapy has always been the first choice for the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The reason is that most nasopharyngeal carcinoma is poorly differentiated, highly sensitive to radiation, and the primary focus and cervical lymph drainage area are easily included in the radiation field.

Treatment method 3: chemotherapy is a treatment method that uses chemical drugs to kill tumor cells, inhibit the growth and reproduction of tumor cells and promote the differentiation of tumor cells. It is a systemic treatment method and has therapeutic effect on primary tumor, metastatic tumor and subclinical metastatic tumor. In addition, regional intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy.
