Does breast cancer stage 3 need preoperative chemotherapy

summary

Last year, my best friend said that we didn't care about her breast pain at that time, but this year her breast was swollen, so I took him to the hospital to see the doctor. The doctor said that it was stage III breast cancer, so we should seize the time to treat it, which is likely to be life-threatening. Let's tell you whether chemotherapy is needed before stage III breast cancer surgery.

Does breast cancer stage 3 need preoperative chemotherapy

First: whether breast cancer is treated with chemotherapy before stage III operation depends on the patient's condition. It is necessary to make clear the condition. If the condition is serious, it is recommended to do it before operation, because if chemotherapy is used before operation, it will increase the success rate of breast protection, and can kill the tumor left in the breast, which is very helpful for further treatment.

Second: for some weak people, it's better to go to chemotherapy one week after surgery, because chemotherapy also has certain stimulation for our body, so our body has consumed a lot of energy after surgery, and it's better for chemotherapy to be carried out when our body is almost recovered.

Third: because surgery combined with chemotherapy can improve our body's immunity, it is very helpful for treatment, and it can also prevent the recurrence and metastasis of cancer, so if conditions permit, we can cooperate with two kinds of treatment at the doctor's suggestion.
