I often have a feeling of foreign bodies in the esophagus, slow food passing or choking, sometimes accompanied by vomiting, epigastric pain, weight loss and other symptoms. I went to the hospital last week and the doctor said that I was esophageal cancer. Now my condition has been controlled to a certain extent. For the treatment of advanced esophageal cancer, let me tell you.

Treatment of advanced esophageal cancer

First, the treatment of esophageal cancer includes surgery, radiotherapy, drug therapy, etc. In principle, surgical treatment should be the first choice, but the diagnosis must be clear, the scope of lesions is limited, there is no distant metastasis, and there is no surgical contraindication. The cost is about 10000-15000 yuan, and the hospital stay is 2 weeks. Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and / or radiotherapy can be used according to the situation. The length of hospital stay and the cost are different. It will take several months for more, and the cost will be about 20000 yuan.

Second, the cost of surgery is about 20000-30000 yuan. Surgical resection is the first choice for the treatment of esophageal cancer. Most patients can survive for a long time after surgical resection. The scope of resection includes tumor and its lymph nodes. After operation, it can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine for a period of time to prevent recurrence and accelerate the recovery of patients' physical function. above. After early treatment, patients with esophageal cancer should be given proper daily care to speed up the recovery of body function.

Third: different levels and regions of hospitals will lead to different charging standards. There are also slight differences in price and economic development in each region. But once diagnosed, esophageal cancer should be treated in time, otherwise it will aggravate the damage to the body, and may cause other diseases. In addition, the treatment effect is closely related to the doctor's technology and experience. It is suggested that patients should go to a regular hospital for surgery, and remember not to trust advertisements or folk prescriptions.

The most important thing is to keep an optimistic attitude, actively cooperate with the treatment, if there is any abnormality in the body, tell the doctor in time. Early control of esophageal cancer, treatment costs will be relatively reduced.
