Can gastric cancer operation cure

summary

Some time ago, I always felt stomachache, and the pain lasted for a long time. I was a little worried about going to the hospital for examination. The doctor said that I found out that gastric cancer needed surgical treatment. Now I'll introduce to you whether gastric cancer surgery can be cured.

Can gastric cancer operation cure

First: after the occurrence of gastric cancer, the main surgical options are distal subtotal gastrectomy, proximal subtotal gastrectomy or total gastrectomy. The choice of operation depends on the location of gastric cancer and the extent of invasion. Because other organs involved are often accompanied by other general signs that cannot be treated.

Second, there is the surgical treatment of lymph node metastasis. Although regional lymph node metastasis is different in different gross and histological types of cancer, the overall lymph node metastasis rate of gastric cancer is quite high. Palpation of lymph nodes during operation is not an effective method to evaluate lymph nodes.

Third: if gastric cancer is treated by surgery, most of them need chemotherapy after surgery, but the side effects of chemotherapy are relatively large. If chemotherapy is to be carried out, it should be consolidated by the method of traditional Chinese medicine. The treatment of traditional Chinese medicine can relieve the pain of patients, and the side effects on the body are relatively small. It is better to take it for a long time.

matters needing attention

Gastric cancer is a common disease, which can only be completely solved by surgery. If the disease is not controlled in time, it is easy to become a malignant tumor. Even surgery can not be cured at this time.
