Chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer

summary

A friend got pancreatic cancer and had a resection operation, but in terms of nursing, he was not as relieved as he was in the hospital. After all, the diet structure of his family was not as well handled in the hospital. Let's talk about the chemotherapy method for pancreatic cancer, which is a problem that we all pay attention to.

Chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer

First, patients with unresectable lesions and no distant metastasis can be treated with electrochemical therapy. The principle of electrochemical therapy is that direct current is applied to the lesion site, and the local chemical environment is changed to kill tumor cells. The lesion is exposed by laparotomy, and electrochemical therapy is carried out under direct vision. The ideal therapeutic effect is obtained. The pain relief rate is 88.9%, and the effective time of pain relief is 3-28 months, with an average of 6 months

Second: radiotherapy. With the continuous improvement of radiotherapy technology, the curative effect of radiotherapy for pancreatic cancer has been significantly improved, which can often significantly improve the symptoms and prolong the survival period. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy can be used during and after operation. High dose local irradiation and radionuclide local implantation irradiation can be used for patients without surgical conditions.

Third: chemotherapy: Although the early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer is difficult, the resection rate is low, and it is not sensitive to radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the timely use of surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, biological response regulators, hormones and other comprehensive treatment, including preoperative, intraoperative, postoperative radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Radiotherapy and / or chemotherapy and other drugs for unresectable limited advanced patients are better than single therapy, and may prolong the survival time.

matters needing attention
