summary

My husband had liver cancer before, but he has had surgery, and his recovery is still very good. Recently, I didn't expect the recurrence of surgery. I'm very worried about it. Now I'll introduce the treatment of recurrence of liver cancer surgery.

What are the treatment methods for recurrence of liver cancer

First, what is the treatment of recurrence after hepatectomy? The discovery and treatment of subclinical recurrence and metastasis after hepatectomy are similar to those of subclinical hepatectomy. Regular and long-term follow-up is very important. Usually, the patients were reexamined every 2-3 months within 2 years after operation, and then every 3-6 months.

Second: reexamination mainly includes AFP, B-ultrasound, X-ray chest film, CT, MRI, etc. Reoperation is the main treatment. The 5-year survival rate was 35.4% after reoperation. The 5-year survival rate was 56.0% after the first operation. The average survival time of 8 patients with solitary lung metastases was 10 years and 5 months (8 months to 19 years and 6 months). The average survival time was 13 years and 2 months (1 year and 4 months to 23 years and 9 months) after the first operation.

Third: To study the recurrence and metastasis of liver cancer, we must first have animal and human liver cancer metastasis models and cell lines. After many years of efforts, our institute has established a nude mouse model of human liver cancer metastasis at home and abroad, which has been passed on for more than 70 generations and still retains the characteristics of metastasis. At the same time, we also established a high metastatic potential cell line of human liver cancer, which has been passed for more than 70 generations, providing a valuable model for the study of liver cancer metastasis.

matters needing attention

Patients with liver cancer will have nausea, vomiting, pain and other symptoms. Do not get out of bed for a period of time after the operation, so as not to involve the wound recovery. If the disease attacks again, it can only be solved by operation.
