How to do after lung cancer brain metastases

summary

Because lung cancer was found late, so more serious patients will have the phenomenon of metastasis, which is a serious blow for patients. Lung cancer has a great impact on the human body, especially in the late stage of development, which brings great harm to the treatment. Lung cancer is afraid of metastasis, and brain metastasis is also more common, so how to treat it well?

How to do after lung cancer brain metastases

First, surgical treatment. It is the most basic and effective treatment for intracranial tumors. All the parts that can be reached by surgery should be completely or partially resected without causing major neurological dysfunction. Surgical treatment of intracranial tumors includes tumor resection, internal decompression, external decompression and shortcut surgery. Due to the development of microneurosurgical technology, most of the benign intracranial tumors can be completely removed and the nerve function can be well protected. Even for malignant tumors, surgical resection of the tumor plus other treatment can obtain better results. Palliative surgery, such as partial resection of tumor, reduction of tumor volume or internal and external decompression, cerebrospinal fluid shunt, can temporarily relieve intracranial hypertension, strive for other treatment opportunities and prolong the survival time of patients. For the patients with difficult surgical resection or large tumor volume and metastasis, preoperative and postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy can be used to improve the surgical resection rate and reduce the recurrence rate of tumor.

Second, radiotherapy. All kinds of gliomas, pituitary adenomas, germinomas, chordomas, craniopharyngiomas and some metastatic cancers are sensitive to radiation to varying degrees. Radiotherapy can be given after surgery.

Third, chemotherapy. Chemotherapy for intracranial tumors includes systemic administration and local administration. Systemic administration includes oral or intravenous injection. Local administration includes intrathecal injection, superselective arterial infusion and intratumoral administration. The ideal chemotherapy drugs should be able to smoothly pass through the blood-brain barrier, non-toxic to the central nervous system, and can maintain a high concentration for a long time in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid. For example, elemene liposome injection is called green chemotherapy drug. It is a fat soluble small molecule anti-tumor plant drug with molecular weight of 204.35, which can pass through the blood-brain barrier! The chemical structure formula is C15H24, no anthracycline, benzene ring and other toxic groups, will not cause bone marrow suppression, platelet reduction, so it is an ideal choice in the treatment of brain tumor.
