What is the treatment of gastric cancer

summary

My mother has just been diagnosed with early gastric cancer. I heard that we can treat early gastric cancer, but I still have no bottom in my heart, because this disease is too difficult to treat. Now I've learned a lot from doctors. In order to prevent this situation, I'd like to introduce some treatment methods for gastric cancer.

What is the treatment of gastric cancer

First, surgical treatment. The main treatment of gastric cancer is surgery. Radical resection can be done in the early and middle stage, and palliative resection can be done in the late stage. This kind of gastric cancer treatment method mainly uses the operation to excise the cancer cell.

Second: chemotherapy. Chemotherapy is mainly to take some chemical drugs to control the growth of cancer cells. But it can have a lot of side effects. Chemotherapy in the treatment of gastric cancer is mainly used as the adjuvant treatment of surgical treatment. For advanced patients, it can delay the development of the disease.

Third: radiotherapy. In the past, radiotherapy was rarely used in the treatment of gastric cancer. In recent years, clinical studies have found that preoperative or intraoperative radiotherapy can effectively improve the resection rate and metastasis of gastric cancer. Treatment of gastric cancer, individual cases, radiotherapy can also be used to alleviate symptoms.

matters needing attention

After rehabilitation, gastric cancer patients can actively participate in outdoor physical exercise according to their physical conditions. When their physical conditions permit, they can also engage in work within their ability, integrate into the social family, and establish a tough belief and optimistic attitude towards life. Avoid playing the same activity for a long time, such as playing cards, playing games, playing mahjong, etc.
