summary

Now the air pollution is very serious. Many people will go out and wear masks. Now the number of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma is increasing rapidly. Let's share with you the latest treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

What method does nasopharyngeal carcinoma newest treatment have

Method 1: radiotherapy is the first choice for the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Cobalt 60 radiotherapy is superior to deep X-ray irradiation, and can also be combined with intracavitary radium therapy. Radiotherapy has a direct killing effect on cancer cells, but the adverse reactions are relatively large, which can cause damage to normal cells. Therefore, the dose size, radiation range and radiation course should be carefully selected according to the lesion range and the patient's physical condition.

Method 2: combined chemotherapy can be used in combination with radiotherapy or palliative treatment for patients with distant metastasis or recurrence after radiotherapy. This kind of treatment is only to maintain the patient's life, and can not fundamentally treat the patient's body well. We must take good care of our own body.

Method 3: due to the characteristics of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, surgery can not be the first choice. However, surgery is beneficial as a salvage treatment for recurrence after radiotherapy.

matters needing attention

The diet of NPC patients during radiotherapy and chemotherapy should be easy to digest, fresh and delicious, rich in protein, vitamins and amino acids, such as kelp, laver, Gracilaria lemaneiformis, jellyfish, etc. When you go out, you must wear a mask, don't go to densely populated places, and eat some food to clear the liver and moisten the lung.
