However, surgery can only remove visible tumors, but can not eliminate scattered and invisible cancer cells, and can not eradicate the cause of disease. It is not suitable for advanced and elderly patients.     

Second: chemotherapy: the treatment of killing cancer cells with chemicals. It is characterized by strong drug power, can kill cancer cells, quick effect; but due to poor selectivity, it can kill cancer cells and normal cells at the same time, with great side effects.
