Which kind of advanced liver cancer is better
summary
As for my liver cancer last year, I don't know if I have been suffering from abdominal pain due to irregular diet recently. Moreover, I am prone to anorexia and I don't want to eat. When I went to check, I knew that I had liver cancer. Let me tell you what kind of advanced liver cancer is better.
Which kind of advanced liver cancer is better
The first step: the clinical manifestations of primary tumor are mainly seen in patients without history of liver disease. Liver metastasis is still in the early stage without corresponding symptoms, while the symptoms of primary tumor are obviously in the middle and late stage. The secondary liver cancer of these patients is mostly found in the examination and follow-up of primary treatment.
The second step: the clinical manifestations of secondary liver cancer patients mostly complain of upper abdomen or liver distension discomfort or pain, with the development of the disease, patients appear fatigue, poor appetite, weight loss or fever. During physical examination, the enlarged liver or hard and tender nodule can be palpated in the middle and upper abdomen. Anemia, jaundice and ascites may occur in advanced patients. The clinical manifestations of these patients are similar to those of primary liver cancer, but the development is relatively slow and the degree is relatively light. Most of them suspect the possibility of metastasis during various liver examinations, and find the primary tumor during further examination or surgical exploration. Some patients can not find the primary cancer after a variety of examinations.
The third step: secondary liver cancer (metastatic liver cancer) can form disease through different ways, such as with blood, lymph metastasis or direct invasion of the liver.
matters needing attention
Detection of serum markers of liver cancer (1) the determination of serum alpha fetoprotein (AFP) has relative specificity in the diagnosis of this disease. If the serum AFP level is more than 400 μ g / L by radioimmunoassay and pregnancy and active liver disease can be excluded, the diagnosis of liver cancer can be considered. About 30% of HCC patients are AFP negative. The positive rate of AFP heteroplasm can be significantly increased by detecting AFP heteroplasm at the same time. ② The serum levels of γ - glutamyltranspeptidase and its isoenzyme, abnormal prothrombin, alkaline phosphatase and lactate dehydrogenase isoenzyme in patients with liver cancer were higher than those in normal. But it lacks specificity.
