Symptoms and treatment of gastric tumor

summary

We all know that there are two kinds of gastric tumors, benign and malignant. Generally, benign tumors have little effect on the physical condition of patients, but we should not be careless, because benign tumors may also become malignant. Once suffering from malignant tumor, it is not an easy thing, should be treated in time, control the development of the disease, so as to avoid malignant tumor into cancer, the consequences will be unimaginable, will bring endless physical suffering to patients. Therefore, gastric cancer must have a correct diagnosis of benign and malignant in order to do further treatment. Let's take a look at the following.

Symptoms and treatment of gastric tumor

First, the risk of benign gastric tumors is very small. Because benign tumors are small and often asymptomatic, gastric benign tumors can be divided into epithelial tumors and stromal tumors. More than half of gastric benign tumors are epithelial, mainly adenomatous polyps, and stromal tumors are leiomyomas.

Second, the symptoms of malignant stomach tumor are already very serious. In addition to gastric cancer, gastric sarcoma is the main malignant tumor in the stomach. In addition to primary gastric cancer, metastatic gastric cancer can also occur in the stomach. Breast cancer, lung cancer and melanoma can metastasize to the stomach. Therefore, we must guard against malignant gastric cancer.

Third: benign tumors may also have malignant transformation, but the chance of malignant transformation varies. The canceration rate of gastric adenomatous polyps is high, about half of the gastric polyps will have malignant transformation, the probability of malignant transformation of gastric leiomyoma is very small, and the probability of malignant transformation of other benign tumors is low.

matters needing attention

The above understanding of the distinction between benign and malignant gastric tumor, no matter what kind of tumor patients should pay attention to, because which kind of tumor may be malignant, do not ignore the great harm of tumor, should be timely targeted treatment.
