Treatment of pancreatic tumor

summary

Pancreatic cancer is a relatively high incidence rate of high malignancy in recent years. The incidence rate is higher in China than in the developing countries. With the improvement of living standard and the change of diet structure, the incidence rate of pancreatic cancer has been increasing in recent years, and it tends to be younger. At present, the pathogenic factors of pancreatic cancer are not clear, but with the progress of the research, we still have some tendentious views. For example, the proportion of pancreatic cancer in the population with chronic pancreatitis and diabetes is higher than that in the normal population. Let's talk about the treatment of pancreatic cancer.

Treatment of pancreatic tumor

First: surgical treatment of pancreatic cancer, surgical treatment can kill large cancer cells to a certain extent, but at the same time, there are disadvantages. Many patients with pancreatic cancer have metastatic lesions that were not found in the diagnosis before surgery. For many tumors that have no clinical symptoms and are not aware of the spread, surgical treatment can not be carried out. Therefore, the establishment of treatment plan for pancreatic cancer needs to pay attention to comprehensive treatment. The key to improve the curative effect is to combine the surgical treatment with radiotherapy, give full play to their own advantages and establish effective comprehensive treatment measures.

Second: chemotherapy. Chemotherapy aims to prolong the survival period, improve the quality of life and improve the effect of surgery and other treatments, including adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery and palliative chemotherapy for patients who have not received radical treatment. However, chemotherapy is a systemic treatment, there are certain complications, should be based on the specific condition, to decide whether to chemotherapy.

Thirdly: CyberKnife therapy CyberKnife is a special equipment for stereotactic radiosurgery of tumors in all parts of the body. Guided by intelligent image, it uses robot arm to accurately and noninvasively eliminate tumors with multiple high-energy rays. Multiple ray beams focus on the lesion area, resulting in very high dose irradiation, and the adjacent normal tissues can be protected from obvious damage. Through 1-5 times of treatment, the body's pancreatic tumor can be destroyed.

matters needing attention

1. It uses the respiratory positioning system, so that the radiotherapy beam can move with the movement of pancreatic tumor caused by human respiration. It also makes it nearly perfect in accuracy. 2. It is the only comprehensive "no wound, no pain, no bleeding, no anesthesia, short recovery period" and other advantages of general radiation surgery.
