Do you need surgery in the early stage of tumor?

Should tumor also do an operation early?

With the continuous development of medical science and in-depth understanding of cancer, the treatment of cancer measures have been improved and increased accordingly. At present, surgical treatment is the first choice and the most effective treatment for most of the early localized tumors. About 60% of tumors are treated by surgery, and 90% of tumors are diagnosed and staged by surgery.

Surgical resection of tumor is not limited by biological characteristics, and there is no potential risk of cancer. Most of the tumors that have not yet spread can be cured. At the same time, the correct location of the tumor can be known after operation, and the correct staging can be obtained. The purpose of surgery in the diagnosis and treatment of tumor is as follows. 1. For cancer prevention; For some malignant lesions, surgery can prevent them from developing into malignant tumors in the future. Such lesions include: undescended testis, ulcerative colon resection, inflammation, colonic polyps, multiple endocrine hyperplasia, mucosal leukoplakia, lobular hyperplasia of breast, nevus, gastric polyps, etc. 2. For the diagnosis of tumor; For some lesions not confirmed by pathology, tumor tissue can be obtained by surgery for pathological examination. The commonly used methods are needle aspiration biopsy, biopsy and resection biopsy.

The growth of the tumor, the physical condition of the patient at that time, the medical level of the local hospital and the inherent limitations of surgery are related. Whether tumor patients can be treated by surgery depends on whether they meet the surgical indications and whether there are surgical contraindications. Many patients have missed the best operation time from the examination, such patients can also take some drug adjuvant treatment, such as ginsenoside Rh2 and so on. The tumor patients who are not suitable for surgical treatment may have the following symptoms: (1) patients with non solid tumor or systemic tumor, such as leukemia, malignant lymphoma, myeloma and so on（ 2) Patients with advanced cancer have cachexia, severe anemia, dehydration and serious disorder of nutrition metabolism, which can not be corrected or improved in a short time（ 3) Cancer patients with severe heart, liver, kidney, lung and other diseases, or high fever, severe infectious diseases and so on can not tolerate surgical treatment, and so on.
