How does esophagus cancer do
First, surgical treatment. Surgery can be used as the treatment of early local lesions of esophageal cancer, for advanced esophageal cancer patients with distant metastasis has been unable to reach the cure standard. Pathological stage is the most important prognostic factor for the survival of patients with esophageal cancer. In addition, aggressive surgical resection is associated with severe pulmonary complications and high mortality.
Second: TCM treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the pathogenesis of esophageal cancer is the weakness of Yang Qi and the decline of body function. The main treatment should be warming yang and replenishing qi, supporting healthy qi and improving body function. Therefore, this principle of traditional Chinese medicine should be embodied in the treatment of esophageal cancer.
Third: radiotherapy. Radiation is used to reduce tumor size before surgery or to eliminate residual cancer cells after surgery for esophageal cancer. When the size and location of the tumor are not suitable for surgery, or other factors of the patient are not suitable for surgery, radiotherapy is another alternative to surgery.
