summary

After suffering from lung cancer, my grandfather had serious pleural effusion for a period of time, which was in the late stage. Actively solving the problem of pleural effusion can improve the quality of life. Let's see how to treat lung cancer pleural effusion.

How does lung cancer hydrothorax treat

First of all: the most direct way to treat lung cancer pleural effusion is to pump pleural effusion. At the same time, attention should be paid to the amount of pleural effusion. The first pumping should not exceed 700ml, and then each pumping should not exceed 1000ml. Large amount of hydrothorax, 2-3 times a week. The purpose of lung cancer pleural effusion is to help diagnosis and later symptomatic treatment.

Secondly: for patients with advanced lung cancer who have been diagnosed, it is mainly for thoracic decompression, because too much pleural effusion can cause dyspnea, so in the treatment of lung cancer pleural effusion, we should pump out pleural effusion in time, but as for when and how much to pump, it depends on the growth rate of pleural effusion and the specific condition of patients, and there is no hard and fast regulation in clinic.

Finally: lung cancer pleural effusion treatment, although through the extraction of pleural effusion is the most direct treatment, but because pleural effusion is very easy to occur repeatedly, often appear again after pumping clean, and can not be completely solved.

matters needing attention

In the treatment of lung cancer pleural effusion, after extracting pleural effusion as much as possible, we should adopt the combined biological immunotherapy scheme, which can regulate the human immune function, inhibit the abnormal proliferation of cancer cells, and reduce the performance of pleural effusion.
