Cervical cancer spread to lymphatic symptoms?

summary

Cervical cancer is the number one killer of female friends' health. Every year, many women lose their lives because of this disease. The early symptoms of cervical cancer are not obvious, so if there is no regular physical examination, it is difficult to find this disease. If cervical cancer has developed to a late stage, it will appear metastasis at this time, so does cervical cancer spread to lymphatic symptoms? I'd like to share my views with you.

Cervical cancer spread to lymphatic symptoms?

First of all: if cervical cancer can not be detected and controlled in time, the development of the disease to a certain extent will cause the spread of cancer cells. Cervical cancer cells can directly spread to adjacent tissues and organs, down to the vaginal vault and vaginal wall, up to the uterine body, to both sides of the pelvic tissue, forward to the bladder, backward to the rectum. It can also be transferred to the para cervical, internal iliac, external iliac and inguinal lymph nodes through lymphatic vessels, and even to the supraclavicle and other lymph nodes in the whole body in the late stage.

Second: cervical cancer cell metastasis site will appear corresponding symptoms. When the tumor spreads forward, it can invade the bladder. Patients have frequent urination, urgency, pain, falling and hematuria, which are often misdiagnosed as urinary tract infection and delayed diagnosis. Severe cases may form vesicovaginal fistula. The cancer can invade the rectum when it spreads backward, and has the symptoms of falling, difficult defecation, rash, bloody stool and so on.

Finally, distant metastasis may occur in the late stage. The more common is supraclavicular lymph node metastasis, in which nodules or masses appear. Tumor invasion can spread to distant organs through blood vessels or lymphatic system, resulting in metastasis and corresponding symptoms.

matters needing attention

Now we know that if cervical cancer can not be detected and treated in time in the early stage, the disease will easily lead to the spread of cancer cells. After the spread, we can no longer take some treatment measures. At this time, we can only extend the life of patients' friends and improve their quality of life as much as possible.
