summary

Choriocarcinoma is a kind of very malignant tumor. I was not worried about this disease before. In the process of treatment, I know the relevant treatment methods of choriocarcinoma. Now, I will share these methods with you.

What does choriocarcinoma treatment method have?

One: when the treatment of choriocarcinoma, chemical drugs can be used. The choice of drugs: in general early cases, a single drug can be used, with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) as the first choice. If the disease is urgent or advanced, two or more drugs are needed. 5-FU and gentamicin are commonly used. 5-FU and KSM have the best curative effect, less side effects, and are effective for the metastasis of lung, digestive tract, urinary tract and genital tract. It can be used for intravenous administration, arterial infusion, intracavitary or intratumoral injection, or oral administration.

Second, in the treatment of choriocarcinoma, surgery can be used. In some cases, for example, the lesion is large, it is estimated that the chemotherapy can not be completely conquered or the hCG drops slowly during the treatment; uterine perforation, intrahepatic metastasis hemorrhage, etc., in order to save the lives of patients, surgery is still an important method for the treatment of choriocarcinoma. In general, subtotal hysterectomy and bilateral resection of accessory omentum, parauterine venous plexus and ovarian venous plexus were performed.

Third: when treating choriocarcinoma, radiotherapy can be used. Choriocarcinoma and malignant hydatidiform mole are sensitive to radiotherapy. If the lung, pelvic cavity, abdominal cavity and other solitary lesions are difficult to operate or have no obvious regression after multiple courses of chemotherapy, radiotherapy can be considered. 60 cobalt or deep X-ray irradiation can be used. Whole brain irradiation can be used for brain metastases. Radium can also be used for local treatment of unresectable vaginal metastatic nodules.
