summary
My grandfather's nose is not ventilated for a period of time, these days the nose is always bleeding from time to time, my grandfather said that the nose is blocked seriously, breathing is difficult. Cancer hospital, the result is nasopharyngeal carcinoma, so can nasopharyngeal carcinoma be cured? Let me talk about the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
Can nasopharyngeal carcinoma be cured
First of all, the cure rate of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is small, only through treatment to prolong the survival time. Comprehensive therapy and combination of multiple therapies can be considered for advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma to kill cancer cells in an all-round way, improve the cure rate and prolong the survival time. This is OK for early nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma can not be treated by surgery because of its location, but this disease is very sensitive to radiotherapy. If it is found early and highly differentiated, the cure rate is also very high.
Second, for patients with advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma, it mainly depends on whether the treatment is appropriate and the patient's physical condition. Radiotherapy, chemotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine are the main treatment methods for advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Radiotherapy is still the first choice for the treatment of advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. It has a direct killing effect on cancer cells, but it will also cause damage to normal cells. Therefore, the dose, irradiation range and irradiation course should be carefully selected according to the lesion range and human function. Combined chemotherapy is also one of the commonly used methods in the treatment of advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma, which is often combined with radiotherapy.
Third, we have nasopharyngeal carcinoma, as long as the active treatment is promising, low-grade malignant tumor, low degree of malignancy, prognosis is better. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is more sensitive to radiotherapy, physical conditions permit, appropriate radiotherapy can be considered, but the side effects are large. After multiple radiotherapy, the immune function of patients is decreased, the resistance is reduced, and it is easy to transfer. It is suggested that in the treatment of Western medicine, TCM should be taken in time. There is no conflict between radiotherapy and TCM. On the contrary, it can complement each other, strengthen the curative effect and reduce the side effects of radiotherapy It can be used to inhibit tumor and eliminate tumor, so as to achieve better therapeutic effect.
