How to prevent recurrence and metastasis of pancreatic cancer
summary
The human body turns yellow and only eats liquid food for a month. After eating, it turns nauseous. The urine turns red. The stomach is particularly uncomfortable and tired. The examination is pancreatic cancer. It needs treatment. Let's talk about how to prevent recurrence and metastasis of pancreatic cancer.
How to prevent recurrence and metastasis of pancreatic cancer
First, the risk of postoperative recurrence is relatively high. Most patients with pancreatic cancer are weak and have low immunity,
Second, only 10% - 20% of the patients can have radical resection. Even if the patients have radical resection, about 50% - 70% of them will have recurrence within one year. The 5-year survival rate of pancreatic cancer has been lower than 5% in recent 20 years. The 5-year survival rate of patients with advanced pancreatic cancer is less than 1%, and the prognosis is very poor. Therefore, pancreatic cancer is known as "the king of cancer".
Third, clinical studies have found that peripancreatic retroperitoneal nerve invasion is an important risk factor for recurrence and survival of pancreatic cancer. At present, about 50% of the retroperitoneal margin of pancreatic head cancer has not reached the negative margin, that is, the invaded nerve and soft tissue has not been completely cleaned. The residual cancer cells in the retroperitoneal nerve tissue around the pancreas may be an important reason for the recurrence of pancreatic cancer and affect the long-term survival.
matters needing attention
It is expected to improve the postoperative survival of patients with pancreatic cancer by standardized radical dissection of the nerve plexus in the 5 groups of peripancreatic retroperitoneum.
