Does kidney cancer need chemotherapy after operation
summary
My father-in-law has just found out that he has kidney cancer for some time. Not long ago, he had an operation. The operation was very successful, but the doctor said that he still needs chemotherapy for some time after the operation. Now let's share whether chemotherapy is needed after renal cancer surgery.
Does kidney cancer need chemotherapy after operation
First, whether to use chemoradiotherapy or not depends on the patient's constitution score. Old age, weak constitution, less food, poor heart function are not suitable for chemoradiotherapy. Patients who are suitable for radiotherapy and chemotherapy should also be treated with traditional Chinese medicine, which can not only reduce the toxic and side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, consolidate the effect of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, but also prevent recurrence and metastasis.
Second: it is generally not sensitive to radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and biological therapy is generally used after operation, that is, interferon and interleukin are used to stimulate the body's immunity, and regular review is required. For advanced renal cell carcinoma with metastasis, we can control the tumor by oral administration of multi kinase inhibitors, or by radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
Third: renal cancer patients in the treatment of surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, even if the treatment is successful, still can not have the idea of numbness. After treatment, patients with renal cell carcinoma are weak, immune decline, slow recovery, and will be accompanied by a certain degree of cancer cell recurrence, metastasis risk.
matters needing attention
Postoperative renal cell carcinoma may recur, often with bone metastasis and lung metastasis. However, due to the lack of specific symptoms, patients are easy to be ignored, and can not take timely treatment measures. They also need to regularly check urine routine, renal function and chest fluoroscopy.
