Why can kidney cancer be cured for a long time
Why can kidney cancer be treated for a long time? Surgical treatment is not thorough enough. There are a few doctors who only pay attention to the curative effect, only from the perspective of trauma, and inappropriately narrow the scope of radical nephrectomy, so that a small amount of cancer tissue or metastatic lymph nodes are left in the abdominal cavity, which is difficult to be found by naked eyes. In addition, comprehensive treatment is ignored after operation. They usually recover well in the near future after surgery, but after a period of time (generally within one year after surgery), there will be recurrence of cancer.
Why can kidney cancer be treated for a long time? The body immunity is low. There are many patients with renal cell carcinoma who have decreased immunity before operation, mainly manifested in the decline of immune defense function, that is, the ability of immune cells in the body to recognize and kill cancer cells is reduced; combined with the impact of surgical trauma and anesthesia on the body's resistance, the immunity of these patients is lower after operation. If the patient's immunity is not improved in time after operation, the tumor often recurres after operation; even if a more thorough radical cure is made, some people will recur in the long term after operation. A middle-aged patient with stage II renal cell carcinoma was diagnosed as metastatic renal cell carcinoma 5 years after radical nephrectomy.
Why can kidney cancer be treated for a long time? Biological characteristics. Usually refers to the malignant degree of tumor. The malignant degree of renal cell carcinoma in elderly patients is relatively low, while the malignant degree of renal cell carcinoma in young patients is relatively high, and the prognosis is poor. Generally speaking, cancer with high malignancy and strong resistance to chemotherapy is more likely to relapse than cancer with low malignancy and sensitivity to chemotherapy.
